A quick market pulse heading into 2026
A lot of the early 2026 chatter is optimistic, but the Canadian picture still looks more uneven than “boom.”
Here’s what we’re paying attention to right now:
- Prices and appraisals: In Toronto, some appraisals are coming in below what buyers agreed to pay this summer,
which can create last-minute financing headaches. - Supply vs. demand: New listings dipped 1.4% in October vs. September, but many markets still have more supply than demand,
which keeps buyers in a stronger position. - It’s regional: RBC is still calling out a split, with places like Quebec, Manitoba, and parts of Atlantic Canada
holding more seller-friendly conditions than Ontario and B.C.
If you’re thinking about a move in 2026, reply with your rough timeline. We’ll send back a quick, practical read on what’s happening in our local market. Just reach out.
Talk soon,

WHAT'S HAPPENING?
WHAT ELSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
Is your home passing the holiday test?
Holiday break is the one time of year when your home is doing everything at once. Kids home, people working from the dining table, guests in the spare room, pans on every burner.
If you have been quietly asking yourself “Does this place still work for us?” this is the moment to notice.
We put together a simple “home fit” checklist for December. It walks you through ten questions that can help you decide whether you are in:
• Stay and tweak mode
• Renovation territory
• Or time-to-plan-a-move-in-2026
Take a look, jot down what you notice, and save it for your new year planning.
