August brought a slight shift in the GTA real estate scene, with home sales dipping by 2.1% compared to last year—totaling 5,057 transactions. Average prices edged down 2.7% to $993,410, and benchmark prices saw a 4.5% decrease, bringing many properties back below the $1 million mark. While this seasonal slowdown is typical as summer winds down, it’s also creating a window of improved affordability for buyers.
