Tight supply drives up real estate prices in toronto area

Greater Toronto area home prices accelerated during the second quarter as buyers grappled with a tight supply of residential properties for sale.

The heightened competition between buyers has created a seller's market, leading to multiple offers and pushing the median sales price up 10 percent, to $405,000 (about $424,000 in U.S. dollars), in June.

At the same time, active listings declined 24 percent from a year ago in Canada's largest metropolis.
