Etobicoke Real Estate Market Shows Stable Prices Despite Fewer Sales in August 2026
The August 2026 real estate market in Etobicoke’s W6 communities—including Alderwood, Humber Bay, Long Branch, Mimico and New Toronto—showed a relatively stable average sale price, while the number of sales declined compared with August 2025.
There were 74 home sales in August 2026, compared with 82 sales in August 2025, representing a 9.76% decrease in sales activity.
At the same time, the average selling price increased slightly to $867,508, compared with $864,053 in August 2025. That represents a 0.40% increase, indicating that overall prices remained quite stable year over year.
More New Listings, But Homes Are Taking Longer to Sell
There were 189 new listings brought to the market in August 2026, compared with 191 in August 2025—a modest 1.05% decrease.
Properties also spent more time on the market. The average days on market increased from 34 days in August 2025 to 38 days in August 2026, an increase of 11.76%.
This suggests that buyers may have more time to consider their options, while sellers need to pay close attention to pricing, presentation and marketing strategy when listing a home for sale in Etobicoke.

What Does This Mean for Buyers and Sellers?
For buyers, the increase in average days on market may provide additional opportunity to carefully evaluate properties and negotiate where appropriate. With a broad selection of housing types available, buyers can compare condos, townhomes, semi-detached homes and detached properties throughout Etobicoke.
For sellers, the market emphasizes the importance of getting the details right. A well-priced and well-presented property can stand out in a market where homes are taking slightly longer to sell.
Every neighbourhood and property is different, however, so city-wide or area-wide statistics should always be considered alongside the specific characteristics of your home.
