Plan selling time around the local market

TRREB August property days on market (PDOM): Vaughan 50, Markham 51, Stouffville 57 and Richmond Hill 61. These are averages for sold properties, including the effect of relisting, not a promise for an individual home or a closing-period estimate.

York Region recorded 971 August sales, an average selling price of $1,179,938 and 4,919 active listings. Markham recorded 282 sales and 1,091 active listings; Stouffville recorded 47 and 288. Separate city, property type and condition before comparing price and competition.

York Region Knowledge Centre: Five Practical Working Checklists

Connect market research, transaction evidence and the next task. Reviewed September 11, 2026.

Build a comparable-sales sheet before setting a price

Record sale date, property type, size range, lot, condition, basement use and location influences. Separate sale price from asking price and explain excluded comparables. Ask how the price range was established, rather than selecting the highest estimate.

Turn launch feedback into decisions

Track the progression from views to appointments, showings, repeat visits and offers. Separate feedback about price, condition, photography and access. Use observed feedback to choose the next adjustment instead of judging the plan solely by a quiet day or two.

Read transaction evidence in context

Check seller versus buyer representation, conditional versus firm status, the status date and the definition of days. The linked 63 Suttonrail Way flyer records a firm sale; the 29 Butterwood Lane flyer still records a conditional sale. Keep those stages separate when comparing transaction timelines.

Put offer terms side by side

Alongside price, list the deposit, conditions, inclusions, exclusions, closing date and documents requiring professional review. Refer contract, tax and tenancy questions to the appropriate qualified adviser. A website case cannot replace review of the property documents.

Budget for timing gaps and one-time costs

Obtain actual quotes for preparation, repairs, moving, legal work, mortgage changes and potential carrying costs. Choose the buy-sell sequence around the household’s time and funding buffer, and record when the funds must be available.

Monthly market report · July 2026

GTA supply fell faster than sales

GTA sales were nearly level with last year, while available supply contracted more quickly. TRREB reported 5,995 sales, down 0.9% year over year; new listings fell 17.8% and active listings fell 12.1%. The average price remained 4.5% below July 2025, so tighter supply has not yet translated into a broad year-over-year price gain.

Balance check: monthly sales divided by monthly new listings was 41.4%, up from 34.3% in July 2025. This is ANJIA's simple calculation from the two monthly totals; it is not TRREB's 12-month trend SNLR.

Markham July 2026

The city average still hides three different markets

Markham recorded 288 sales at an average price of $1,131,324. There were 704 new listings, 1,168 active listings, 32 average listing days and 48 average property days on market across all home types.
Markham segmentSalesAverage priceSale-to-listAvg. listing days
Detached124$1,507,84198%31
Att/row townhouse46$1,059,661101%25
Condo apartment63$637,45298%41

Harry's interpretation: a 101% sale-to-list ratio for the townhouse segment does not prove that every townhouse should launch below market value. Sellers should compare the closest competing homes, expected buyer depth, showing pace and offer terms before choosing an offer date or offers-anytime plan.

July 2026 sample opening

“GTA sales were almost flat year over year in July, but new listings fell nearly 18%. In Markham, townhouses averaged 25 listing days, detached homes 31 and condos 41. That means sellers need a property-type plan, not one city-wide headline. I’m Harry Siu from ANJIA Realty; the source table is linked below.”
