In this episode of The Last Honest Realtor, David Fleming looks back at Toronto’s 2026 spring real estate market and shares his biggest observations from the first five months of the year.
While headlines continue to focus on falling sales, weak condo performance, and economic uncertainty, David explains why the reality on the ground is far more nuanced. From multiple offers on $4 million homes to the growing shortage of move-up inventory, this episode explores where buyers are active, what properties are commanding premiums, and why turnkey homes continue to outperform everything else.
Using recent transactions and client stories from across Toronto, David breaks down what’s selling, what’s struggling, and what these trends could mean for the rest of the year.
