The April 2026 real estate market in South Etobicoke (W6) showed notable shifts compared to the same time last year, creating new opportunities for both buyers and sellers across Alderwood, Humber Bay, Long Branch, Mimico, and New Toronto.
Sales activity increased significantly, with 105 homes sold in April 2026, up from 73 in April 2025 — a strong 43.84% rise in transactions. This surge suggests renewed buyer confidence and increased market activity heading into the spring season.
At the same time, the average home price declined to $885,425, down 12% year-over-year from $1,006,108. This price adjustment may indicate improved affordability, giving more buyers the chance to enter the market or upgrade within the area.
Inventory levels also expanded, with 360 new listings hitting the market, a 24.14% increase compared to April 2025. More listings mean greater choice for buyers, while sellers are facing a more competitive landscape that requires strategic pricing and strong marketing.
