As we move through the second half of 2026, there are some encouraging signs emerging in the Ontario real estate market. After a challenging couple of years, sales activity has begun to strengthen and Ontario has been one of the main drivers of the recent national recovery. Inventory is also starting to tighten, with fewer new listings coming to market and several areas moving back toward more balanced conditions.
Borrowing costs remain significantly more manageable than they were at their peak, with the Bank of Canada currently holding its policy rate at 2.25%. If economic confidence continues to improve, there is a considerable group of buyers who have been sitting on the sidelines who could gradually return to the market.
I don’t expect a return to the frantic markets of 2021, but the ingredients for a healthier market are beginning to appear: improving sales, declining inventory, more stable prices and better affordability. For buyers and sellers who have been waiting for some stability, the next 12–18 months could look considerably better than the last couple of years.
About Me:
When asked what has helped me be successful in real estate my answer is simple, “love of relationships”.
Renovating houses and income properties, finding dream homes and investing smartly has been my passion.
When I’m not working with clients
My motto is health and homes. I have a background in teaching physical education and can often be found playing or coaching in a gym. I enjoy mentoring others in healthy living and helping people see the connection between healthy lives and healthy homes. Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, spending time at the cottage, and being outdoors with family and friends. I’m also an active part of Breslau Mennonite Church (BMC) in Breslau.
Helping others empower themselves and expanding their goals helps drive my purpose.
