This average price does not paint a complete picture of the range of Toronto real estate listings that exist on the market. Toronto real estate values vary greatly depending on a number of factors. With one of the world's most used transit systems, a listings' proximity to a Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) station will greatly impact the value of a Toronto home for sale. From thousands of new condos for sale in the downtown core to the East End's Victorian-era listings, the city offers a broad range of real estate choices.
Within the Toronto real estate market, listing transactions are taxed through both a provincial land transfer tax and a second Municipal land transfer tax.
