Detached homes over $1 million are still selling quickly across the GTA

By Lucas on Aug 15, 2016

After countless months of record high pricing in the new low-rise market across the Total Market Area (TMA), it seems like buyers are just accepting that a detached home is going to cost them over $1 million because sales haven’t really slowed down.

Well, sales have slowed down slightly, but sales slow down every summer and supply has hit record lows. The point is, there’s still a very strong demand for detached housing, so strong in fact that buyers seem to have no trouble taking on a $1 million+ mortgage to own.

Listed below are a few notable low-rise sites that have sold many detached homes over the last month:

U.C. by Tribute Communities saw 58 sales last month, and this is actually the only community on the Trimart Hot Spots list this week that has detached homes under $1 million available. This Oshawa community has been very successful; it features semis and 30’, 36’, and 40’ detached homes, ranging from 1,409 to 3,099 square feet. Prices are starting at $524,990 for the semis and range up to the mid $700,000s for a detached home.
