TORONTO, January 5, 2012 – Greater Toronto REALTORS® reported 4,718 transactions through the TorontoMLS® system in December 2011. The December result capped off the second-best year on record under the current Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB) boundaries. Total sales for 2011 amounted to 89,347 – up four per cent in comparison to 2010.
"Low borrowing costs kept Buyers confident in their ability to comfortably cover their mortgage payments along with other major housing costs," said TREB President Richard Silver. "If Buyers had not been constrained by a shortage of listings over the past 12 months, we would have been flirting with a new sales record in the Greater Toronto Area," added Silver.
The average selling price in December was $451,436 – up four per cent compared to December 2010. For all of 2011, the average selling price was $465,412, an increase of eight per cent in comparison to the average of $431,276 in 2010.
"Months of inventory remained below the pre-recession norm in 2011. Very tight market conditions meant substantial competition between Buyers and strong upward pressure on selling prices," said Jason Mercer, TREB’s Senior Manager of Market Analysis.
"TREB’s baseline forecast for 2012 is for an average price of $485,000, representing a more moderate four per cent annual rate of price growth. This baseline view is subject to a heightened degree of risk given the uncertain global economic outlook," continued Mercer. Summary of TorontoMLS® Sales and Average Price

If the average single family residential price in the GTA continues to increase at 4% per year, the average price would be over $500,000 by 2015 and by 2020 the average price will be over $600,000!
Current Average price for a single family home in the GTA is $427,000
Estimated average price by year 2015 is $525,000!
By 2020 average price estimate is $638,000!
Of course these are only estimates, but it shows that if the current trend continues prices will be well over $600,000 by 2020
When I first made this graph in 2007, the data showed that if Average prices continued to increase from end of 2007 at 4% per year, the average price would be over $475,000 in 6 years ( 2013) Now the data shows $485,000 for 2013!In the beginning of 2007 I made the same graph below and if Average prices continued to increase from 2006 at 4% per year, the average price would be over $460,000 in 7 years ( 2013)
The graph below is one that I made about a year ago and shows how times have changed in 2 years
