What sold in your neighbourhood

No home in the comp zone has firmly sold since the end of July. 2144 Hallandale, a Tanglewood Cedarwood, sold conditionally on October 26, after more than 300 days of trying to sell. Until it is firm, its sold price is not public and it is not counted in the numbers below. That leaves five firm sales this year, three of them Tanglewood homes. The pattern is clear: homes priced close to the market sold in under two months, and the rest gave up far more.

Market Snapshot

North Oshawa: slower sales, more to choose from

What is selling, what is sitting, and what buyers are paying

Resale of newer homes across North Oshawa has slowed. Thirty-five homes up to five years old have sold in Kedron, Taunton, Windfields and Samac this year, but only one sold in October, and 24 are for sale right now. The homes that do sell are still getting about 99% of their final asking price, in about a month.

All-types averages differ because more towns are for sale now than sold this year.

At the pace homes sold this summer and fall, it would take about nine months to sell everything listed today. For towns and double-garage detached homes, asking prices are running about 5% above what buyers have actually paid.

Oshawa Market Watch

Oshawa resale: the bigger picture

Every month, the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board reports how the whole city did. Prices across Oshawa are softer than a year ago.

152Oshawa sales, October

$653,466Average price

−6.8%Typical home vs. last year

98%Of asking price, citywide

Across Oshawa, 152 homes sold in October at an average price of $653,466. Detached homes averaged $705,333 over 108 sales. Homes that sold got 98% of their asking price in 29 days on average. Across the whole GTA, sales were down 7.9% and the average price down 2.7%.

TRREB's benchmark price, which tracks a typical home rather than whatever happened to sell, tells the same story: $694,400 for a typical Oshawa home, down 6.8% from a year ago, and $745,800 for a typical detached home, down 6.5%. Across the GTA, the benchmark was down 4.3%.

What it means for Tanglewood: city-wide averages include older homes and condos, so they run well below Tanglewood prices. The trend is what matters: softer prices across Oshawa and the GTA, the same pattern we see in North Oshawa above.

Jeff's Take

What I'm watching this winter

If you're buying

You have real choice right now: 24 homes up to five years old are for sale across North Oshawa, about nine months' worth. Rates went up October 28 and could rise again, so get pre-approved before the next decision on December 9.

If you're selling

Price is everything right now. Across North Oshawa, homes that sell are getting about 99% of their final asking price. But in Tanglewood, the homes that sat for months gave up 20% to 25% from their first asking price. Start where buyers already are, and you'll be in the group that sells.

If you're renting out

Rentals are the bright spot. October's leases took about 26 days. The homes that rented were priced in line with similar-sized homes nearby. Price to what tenants are actually paying for a home your size.

By Jeffrey Villeneuve, Broker

This Month in Three Numbers

2.50%

Bank of Canada rate, raised Oct 28

Up from 2.25%. The first increase since 2023. Next decision: December 9.

820

GTA low-rise new home sales, September

17% above the 10-year average, while condo sales hit a record low.

Nov 3

U.S. midterm elections

Democrats won the House and Senate. Trade talks with Canada are picking up.

Sources: Bank of Canada (Oct 28), BILD / Altus Group (Oct 22).

01 | Interest Rates

Rates went up. Here's what changes.

What it means for you

If you have a variable-rate mortgage or a line of credit, your cost goes up now. On a $600,000 variable-rate mortgage, a quarter-point increase adds roughly $125 a month in interest. If you are renewing or buying soon, ask your lender about holding a rate. The next decision is December 9.

On October 28, the Bank of Canada raised its key interest rate by a quarter point, to 2.50%. It's the first increase since July 2023. The Bank's reason: inflation is running higher and lasting longer than it expected, and it wants to stop high energy prices from spreading into the cost of everything else. It also said it could raise rates again, but that it would “proceed carefully.”

The banks moved the next day. Prime went up to 4.70% at National Bank and BMO, and the other big banks announced increases too.

Sources: Bank of Canada, National Bank, Desjardins.

02 | New Home Sales

New home buyers want houses, not condos

What it means for Tanglewood

Buyers want ground-level homes with a yard, and that is exactly what this neighbourhood is. But lower new home prices also mean resale sellers are competing with builders for the same buyers, so pricing right matters more than ever.

September's new home numbers for the GTA tell two very different stories. Buyers signed for 820 new low-rise homes (detached, semis and towns), 17% above the 10-year average for the month. Condo-style sales fell to 129, the lowest September on record.

Prices moved too. Across the GTA, the benchmark price for a new low-rise home was $1,246,764, down 13.3% from a year ago. That is a region-wide figure covering every builder, not a local one.

Source: BILD / Altus Group, released October 22. GTA-wide figures. BILD does not report Durham Region separately.

03 | Trade

The midterms are done. Is trade next?

What it means for Tanglewood

Tariffs have weighed on Canada's economy all year, and that uncertainty has kept many buyers on the sidelines. The vote is over, and both Ottawa and Washington now say a deal is getting closer. Nothing is signed yet. But TRREB's president said this week that a trade deal could “renew interest in homeownership” heading into 2027. For Tanglewood homeowners, that would be the most welcome news of the year.

How we got here

July

U.S. declines to renew CUSMA at its first review. The deal stays in force.

August

Talks break off. New U.S. tariffs hit about $28 billion of Canadian goods.

September

Canada answers with counter-tariffs.

Days before

Carney and Trump speak. More intense talks begin.

Nov 3

Democrats win the House and Senate. Both leaders say a deal is close.

January

The new Congress is sworn in.

The votes are in. On November 3, Democrats won control of both the House and the Senate, taking both from the Republicans, according to the Associated Press. Senate races in Alaska and Mississippi were still too close to call on Wednesday morning, but they do not change who controls Congress.

Americans voted with their wallets. In AP's survey of voters, about 8 in 10 said inflation had caused their household at least moderate financial hardship. Tariffs were part of that story: in Maine, 69% of voters told CBS News that tariffs have hurt their local economy.

Talks with Canada picked up at the same time. On election day, President Trump told Fox News, “we’re going to make a deal with Canada very soon.” Prime Minister Carney said talks have become “more intense,” that the U.S. is “asking less” and “offering more,” and that “we’ve made progress but we haven’t finished.”

Here is the honest picture. No deal has been announced, and neither side has given a date or said what it would cover. But after a year of tariffs and counter-tariffs, both leaders are now talking about a deal, not another round of duties.

Watch 1: A dealAn announcement on tariffs would be the clearest sign of a turn.

Watch 2: December 9The Bank of Canada's next rate decision. Calmer trade could mean less pressure on rates.

Watch 3: JanuaryThe new Congress takes its seats, with a say over U.S. trade law.

The question I'm asked most

“What’s the status of the Phase 2 release at Tanglewood?”

The honest answer: we're not there yet, and that's on purpose. We are still ironing out some new plans and concepts that will appeal to today's market and bring even more interest to the Tanglewood community. As soon as I have news I can share, you'll read it here.
