In Q2 2026, new home sales across Ontario jumped by 130%, reaching 8,410 units\u2014thanks in large part to the enhanced HST rebate, now up to $130,000. While the single-family home market is clearly energized, condo sales are still lagging behind.

My experience\u2014both as a former educator and a tech enthusiast\u2014helps me make sense of these numbers for clients navigating Toronto\u2019s dynamic market.
