In line with seasonal expectations, both sales and inventory levels trended up relative to March’s activity. Despite this typical monthly rise, April sales totalled 2,104 units, six per cent lower than levels reported in 2025.“Sales were expected to ease this year as our market transitioned away from strong demand that was driven by previously rapid migration growth. Improved supply choice across the entire housing spectrum has reduced the urgency among potential purchasers, helping our market shift away from seller’s market conditions to more balanced conditions,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, CREB®’s Chief Economist. “However, the trend of limited supply choice in the detached market continues, while conditions favour the buyer in the apartment condominium market.”
With 3,829 new listings in April, the sales-to-new-listings ratio remained at 55 per cent, supporting a modest monthly gain in supply. Inventory levels reached 5,973 units, nearly two per cent higher than levels reported last April. Overall, the months of supply remained just below three, representing relatively balanced conditions. However, this ranged from just over two months for detached homes to over four months for apartment-style homes.
