The latest Wahi analysis of the Greater Toronto Area’s real estate market looks at which neighbourhoods have the highest and lowest average days on the market for home sales.

The latest Wahi analysis of the Greater Toronto Area’s real estate market looks at which neighbourhoods with five or more transactions had the highest and lowest average days on market for home sales in September 2026.

The difference between the GTA’s fastest- and slowest-selling neighbourhoods remained significant in September. Homes in Tam O’Shanter, The Junction and Little Italy sold in an average of just seven days, while properties in Kingsview Village-The Westway and Maple spent an average of 69 days on the market.

Interestingly, four of the GTA’s fastest-selling neighbourhoods were concentrated entirely within Toronto, with median sold prices ranging from $1.3 million to over $1.6 million, suggesting that demand for single-family homes remains strong in desirable, established neighbourhoods despite higher price points.

The types of homes in a neighbourhood can also affect how quickly properties sell, since condos and detached homes often appeal to different buyers and sell at different speeds.
