Month by month
Sales, new listings and prices
Sales for every 100 new listings is a rough guide to competition: the higher it is, the fewer other new homes a seller is up against for each buyer.

Season by season
How each season usually plays out
- Spring
- Listings and sales climb quickly from March, and prices usually reach their high point for the year. More buyers, but also the most competition from other sellers.
- Summer
- Sales stay strong into July, then ease in August as families focus on the school year. Yards and gardens show at their best.
- Fall
- Sales and new listings slow, and homes take a little longer to sell. Buyers who need to move before winter are motivated.
- Winter
- The quietest season, but new listings drop even faster than sales. The buyers who are out tend to be serious, and your home faces less competition.
The best time for you
The calendar is only part of it
Your next home
If you’re buying too, the timing of your purchase matters as much as your sale. See buy or sell first.
Your mortgage
Selling near your renewal date can avoid a prepayment penalty. Check your term before you pick a month.
Your home
A home with a great yard shines in summer. A cozy condo near the LRT sells in any season.
Your neighbourhood
Competition is local. Ten similar homes for sale on your street changes the plan, whatever the month.
