🔍 Buyer & Seller Insights
For Buyers: Scarborough offers tremendous upside value. With inventory levels climbing modestly and prices holding stable, buyers have time to explore options. Many homes are selling with conditions, signaling less bidding pressure than central Toronto.
For Sellers: Homes that are well-maintained and priced right are moving swiftly. With an average of just 26 days on market and a 98.5% sale-to-list ratio, sellers can feel confident when listing — particularly in school-focused or transit-accessible zones.
🔄 Market Trends
The market remains balanced, with neither buyers nor sellers fully in control. However, as interest rates ease and more first-time buyers re-enter the market, expect renewed competition in entry-level and mid-tier properties.
Scarborough's long-term value is further supported by ongoing infrastructure investments, including the Eglinton East LRT extension and waterfront revitalization plans.
🧭 Final Word
Scarborough continues to strike the perfect balance: affordability, accessibility, and livability. Whether you're purchasing your first home, upsizing for more space, or investing in a diverse and growing community, March 2025 shows that Scarborough is still on the rise.
