Historic Statistics

Since its earliest days, TRREB has been keeping REALTORS® informed of the trends in Toronto region real estate. TRREB research staff generate accurate data on the number of sales and average home prices throughout the Greater Toronto Area. A couple who bought a home in Toronto in the 1970s could find that the average value of  Toronto homes had soared by the time of their retirement 40 years later. The average sale price jumped from $70,830 (1979) to $228,372 (1999) to $819,305 (2019). Of course, the TRREB market area changed over those years as well, so comparatives must be used with caution. Still, given the average returns, it would be hard to find many families who regretted buying a home in Toronto.
