Posted February 8, 2021 6:50 pm.
The average home price will surpass $1-million for the first time ever, according to the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s forecast for 2021.
TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason says it will be a record high, forecasting the average Toronto home price to be $1,250,000.

Mercer says the record high is driven by high demand and low supply.
With a low supply, particularly for homes, it creates a competitive market driving up prices.
While Statistics Canada reports a record-high population loss of 50,000 people in Toronto from July 2019 to July 2020, Mercer has confidence a rebounding economy, and a renewed GTA population growth post pandemic, will support the continued demand.
