Vaughan Real Estate Market Update — January 2026
As we move into 2026, the Vaughan real estate market is quieter, slower, and more thoughtful than it was a few years ago.
That’s not a bad thing but it does mean buyers and sellers need to be more informed and more strategic.
Using the most recent December 2025 TRREB data, here’s a clear, easy-to-understand breakdown of what’s happening in Vaughan right now—and how it may affect your next move.

🏡 Vaughan Real Estate at a Glance
Homes Sold: 194
Active Listings: 914
New Listings: 247
Average Price: $1,170,058
Median Price: $1,008,500
Average Days on Market: 43
Months of Inventory: 5.3
Sale-to-List Price Ratio: 96%
In simple terms, Vaughan is currently in a buyer-leaning market.
There are more homes available than buyers willing to purchase at today’s prices, which is slowing things down and shifting negotiating power.
🏡 Why This Is Considered a Buyer’s Market
One of the most important indicators is the SNLR (Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio), which is sitting at 31.5%.
What does that mean?
- For every 10 homes listed, only about 3 are selling
- The rest stay on the market, adding to competition
This is why:
- Homes are taking longer to sell
- Buyers are negotiating more confidently
- Pricing accuracy matters more than ever
🏡 Home Prices in Vaughan: Stable, Not Surging
Vaughan still commands a premium compared to the rest of the GTA.
Vaughan average price: $1,170, 058
GTA average price: $1,006,735
That said, the median price, about $1,008,500, is where most real activity is happening.
This tells us buyers are focused on value and affordability, not stretching for luxury unless pricing makes sense.
🏡 How Each Property Type Is Performing
🏠 Detached
Detached homes continue to dominate Vaughan, but competition is heavy.
- Entry-level detached homes are moving
- Higher-priced luxury homes are taking longer
- Pricing correctly is critical in this segment
🏡 Semi-Detached & Townhomes
These remain popular with buyers looking for ground-oriented homes without detached pricing.
- Freehold towns are trading near $1M
- Condo townhomes offer a lower-cost entry point
🏢 Condo Apartments
This is the slowest segment right now.
- Highest inventory
- Longest days on market
- Buyers are extremely price-sensitive
What Buyers Are Doing Right Now
The selective and cautious buyers are:
- Taking their time
- Including conditions
- Comparing multiple properties
- Waiting for price adjustments when homes are overpriced
If you’re buying, this is a market where
- patience and data-driven decisions pay off
- you have time, choice, and leverage.
However the best homes still attract attention when priced correctly.
Thinking of Buying in Vaughan?
With more choice, longer days on market, and fewer bidding wars, buyers have time to make informed decisions right now.
The key is understanding which homes are fairly priced — and which ones are not.
If you’d like to review what this market means for your budget, timing, or neighbourhood preferences, I’m happy to walk through it with you.
What Homeowners and Sellers Need To Know
Homes are still selling but not automatically and taking time.
Successful sellers today are:
- Pricing based on recent sales, not past peaks
- Preparing and positioning their homes carefully
- Understanding that buyers have options
On average, homes are selling at about 96% of asking price, which tells us this is not a distressed market but it is a selective one.
If you’re a seller:
- Timing matters less than strategy.
- Homes that are well-priced and well-presented are still selling.
If you’re a homeowner watching the market:
Vaughan remains a premium, stable market. Prices are holding, not collapsing, and long-term fundamentals remain strong.
Thinking of Selling in Vaughan?
Homes are still selling — but strategy matters more than timing in today’s market. Pricing accurately, understanding local competition, and knowing how buyers are behaving can make a real difference in your final result.
If you’re considering a move this year, a clear picture of what your home could realistically sell for is a good place to start.
