Market Demand Map

Across GTA for the past 30 days

This page presents an insightful view of the market demand in each neighborhood, as represented by the absorption rate. The absorption rate, a critical real estate metric, reflects the rate at which available homes are sold within a specific timeframe. Calculated by dividing the number of homes sold in the last 30 days by the total number of currently available homes, this rate helps determine whether the market is favoring buyers or sellers. A high absorption rate, indicative of a Buyer’s Market, suggests homes stay on the market longer and competition among buyers is lower. Conversely, a lower absorption rate indicates a Seller’s Market where homes are sold more quickly, and competition among buyers is higher.

Understanding these dynamics helps you gauge the level of competition and the likely pace of the home-buying process in your chosen neighborhood. Our heatmap represents this information visually, with each neighborhood shaded a degree of purple corresponding to its absorption rate. The darker the shade, the higher the absorption rate. With this comprehensive data view, you can make informed decisions about when and where to buy your new home.
