Vaughan Real Estate Market — Key Takeaways
Vaughan recorded 187 resale transactions in February 2026, representing $214.2M in total dollar volume — a meaningful rebound from January’s 158 sales. The municipal SNLR of 34% and 5.03 months of inventory keep conditions in buyer’s market territory, but February showed improving signals: DOM dropped from 47 to 39 days, SNLR ticked up from 31% to 34%, and semi-detached homes hit a remarkable 75% SNLR. Patterson and Vellore Village dominated volume with 60 combined sales.
- ▼Price trend: Median $1,080,000 — down 13.6% YoY from $1,250,000 in Feb 2025. Detached median $1,436,000 (-2.7% YoY from $1,476,500).
- ~Inventory: 5.03 MOI and 34% SNLR — buyer’s market, but improving MoM. Active listings at 995 vs. 928 in January.
- ↑Momentum: DOM improved from 47 (Jan) to 39 days (Feb). Sales up 18% MoM. SP/LP held steady at 97%.
- !Standouts: Semi-detached SNLR 75% — seller’s market. Patterson SNLR 50%, 100% SP/LP. Row townhouse 100% SP/LP. Condo townhouse 101% SP/LP. 15% of sales closed above asking.
February Summary: Vaughan’s February 2026 data tells a nuanced story — the headline buyer’s market reading (SNLR 34%, MOI 5.03) obscures meaningful pockets of strength. Semi-detached homes posted a 75% SNLR with a 21-day average DOM, Patterson hit 100% SP/LP with 36 sales and a balanced SNLR of 50%, and row townhouses achieved 100% SP/LP across 30 transactions. The market is bifurcating: well-priced, correctly-positioned product is transacting competitively while overpriced listings accumulate days. The 18% MoM sales improvement and DOM reduction from 47 to 39 days suggest February was meaningfully better than January.

Vaughan Market Conditions — February 2026
Vaughan’s SNLR of 34% and 5.03 months of inventory confirm a buyer’s market, but the February data shows measurable improvement from January. Sales rose 18% MoM, average DOM fell from 47 to 39 days, and the semi-detached segment hit a 75% SNLR — seller’s market conditions within the broader buyer-side context. Row townhouses and condo townhouses both achieved 100%+ SP/LP, confirming that accurately priced product across all segments is still transacting competitively.
SNLR < 40% (typically)
40%–60%
SNLR > 60%
What this means: Vaughan’s buyer’s market conditions give buyers leverage, but this is not a one-sided market. The 808-unit gap between active listings (995) and monthly sales (187) means sellers are competing, but 15% of sales still closed above asking and multiple segments hit 100%+ SP/LP. Use conditions freely and negotiate on detached and condo apartment segments where SNLR is weakest (29–35%). Be more decisive on semi-detached and row townhomes — those segments are moving at or above ask. The median DOM of 23 days (not 39 — the avg is pulled up by stale listings) means properly priced homes are selling in under a month.
For Buyers: Vaughan in February 2026 is a buyer’s market with real leverage — but it’s not uniform. On detached homes (SNLR 35%, 38-day avg DOM, 97% SP/LP), you have time to include conditions and negotiate 3–4% off list. On condo apartments (SNLR 29%, 44-day avg DOM, 96% SP/LP), you have the most leverage of any segment — full conditions, negotiate firmly. On semi-detached and row townhomes, exercise more caution: semi hit 75% SNLR and row townhouses closed at 100% SP/LP. Arrive pre-approved across all segments. Kleinburg and Vellore Village offer the most negotiating room on detached; Patterson and Crestwood offer the best activity for buyers who want to be in a moving market.
For Sellers: Vaughan’s market is improving but still buyer-leaning. With 995 active listings competing for 187 monthly buyers, entry price remains the most critical variable. The Feb 2026 data shows a clear two-tier market: correctly priced homes (semi-detached, row towns, Patterson) are selling at or above ask in under a month; overpriced listings are sitting 40–80+ days and accumulating carrying costs. Vaughan Corporate Centre (84-day avg DOM) and Kleinburg (50-day avg DOM) show what happens when price and product don’t match buyer expectations. The 18% MoM sales improvement is encouraging — spring 2026 should bring more buyer activity if rates hold and trade uncertainty eases.
For Investors: Vaughan’s investment thesis centres on the VMC (Vaughan Metropolitan Centre) — York-Spadina subway terminus, office densification, and transit-oriented condo supply. The condo apartment segment ($575K median, SNLR 29%, 44-day avg DOM) warrants careful underwriting: rent-to-price ratios on VMC condos are tight and maintenance fees are rising. Vaughan Corporate Centre’s 84-day avg DOM and 8% SNLR signal oversupply at that price point. The stronger investment signal is in semi-detached (SNLR 75%) and row townhouses (100% SP/LP) — these segments have better liquidity, stronger organic demand, and more predictable rental income profiles. Patterson detached at corrected prices ($1,252,500 median) represents long-term hold value in a proven family community.
Vaughan Median Home Price — 13-Month Trend
Vaughan has two confirmed TRREB data points in this 13-month window: $1,250,000 (February 2025) and $1,080,000 (February 2026) — a confirmed YoY decline of $170,000 or −13.6%. January 2026’s median of $1,089,500 is also sourced directly from TRREB. Months between April and December 2025 are estimated based on York Region directional trends and are shown for context only.
Trend Note: Vaughan’s February 2026 median of $1,080,000 is essentially flat with January’s $1,089,500 — a stabilization rather than a rebound. The confirmed YoY decline of 13.6% from $1,250,000 is meaningful but more moderate than some other York Region municipalities. The Jan–Feb 2026 data shows the market may be forming a floor in the $1,080,000–$1,090,000 range. With sales up 18% MoM and DOM improving, the trajectory is cautiously positive heading into spring. Whether the floor holds depends on March–April volume — if sales continue improving while inventory stays controlled, a modest spring median recovery toward the $1.10M–$1.15M range is plausible.
Vaughan Home Prices by Property Type — February 2026
Detached homes accounted for 41.7% of Vaughan’s sales (78 of 187) with a $1,436,000 median — down from $1,476,500 in Feb 2025 (-2.7% YoY). The standout this month is semi-detached: 15 sales, 75% SNLR, 21-day avg DOM — seller’s market conditions. Row townhouses hit 100% SP/LP. Condo apartments remain the largest buyer-side segment at 29% SNLR and 44-day avg DOM.
February 2026 — Property Type Breakdown
Semi-detached is the most compelling segment in Vaughan this month — 75% SNLR, 21-day avg DOM, and 97% SP/LP on only 20 new listings. Row townhouses and condo townhouses both achieved 100%+ SP/LP. The detached segment shows the impact of accurate pricing: DOM improved from 44 (Jan) to 38 (Feb) as more sellers adjusted to current market reality. YoY comparisons are available for detached, semi, row town, and condo apartment.
| Property Type | Sales | Avg Price | Median Price | Avg DOM | Med DOM | SP/LP | SNLR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 78 | $1,589,254 | $1,436,000 | 38 | 22 | 97% | 35% |
| Semi-Detached | 15 | $1,076,667 | $1,093,500 | 21 | 16 | 97% | 75% |
| Row Townhouse | 30 | $1,041,723 | $1,025,000 | 36 | 22 | 100% | 40% |
| Condo Apartment | 52 | $583,798 | $575,000 | 44 | 30 | 96% | 29% |
| Condo Townhouse | 8 | $782,500 | $765,000 | 32 | 25 | 101% | 35% |
| Link Home | 3 | $1,146,667 | $1,288,000 | 34 | 20 | 98% | 75%* |
*Link SNLR of 75% (3 sales, 4 new listings) — low volume (n=3); treat as directional only.
Type Takeaway: Semi-detached at 75% SNLR is the headline data point — this segment is in seller’s market territory despite the broader buyer’s market. With only 20 new listings generating 15 sales, supply is thin and buyers should expect competition. Row townhouses (100% SP/LP, 40% SNLR) and condo townhouses (101% SP/LP) are both in or near balanced conditions. Condo apartments offer the most buyer leverage: 29% SNLR, 44-day avg DOM, 96% SP/LP — arrive with conditions and negotiate. The detached improvement from 38-day avg DOM (vs. 44 days in Jan) signals that sellers who adjusted prices in January are getting February transactions.
Sales Distribution by Price Band — February 2026
The $1.0M–$1.249M range was the most active band with 49 transactions — 26.2% of all Vaughan sales. The sub-$700K range accounted for 48 sales (primarily condos and lower-tier semis). The $2M+ segment recorded 14 sales — 7.5% of volume. One sale above $3M was recorded.
Is Now a Good Time to Upgrade in Vaughan?
The spread between condo apartments and detached homes is $861,000 median-to-median — down from a peak spread of over $1M. Detached homes at 38-day avg DOM and 35% SNLR give buyers meaningful negotiating room on the buy side. The semi-detached segment (75% SNLR) is the exception — buyers upgrading into semi need to be prepared to act quickly.

Get Your Valuation →Factors Shaping the Vaughan Market in 2026
Vaughan’s market is shaped by York Region-wide macro forces alongside Vaughan-specific dynamics: the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (VMC), Highway 400/407/427 employment corridors, Kleinburg’s estate market, and one of the region’s most diverse community compositions.
The BoC’s 200 bps rate reduction over 2024–25 has expanded the qualifying pool for Vaughan’s entry-level detached segment. Fixed 5-year rates now sit in the 4.1%–4.4% range. A $1,436,000 detached home (Feb 2026 median) with 20% down requires qualifying on approximately $1.15M at the stress test rate — roughly $228K household income. Rate relief has been the key driver of Vaughan’s improved Feb 2026 activity vs. Jan. Additional BoC cuts in 2026 would further expand the buyer pool for Vaughan’s $1M–$1.5M detached segment.
The VMC at Highway 400 and Hwy 7 — terminus of the York-Spadina subway extension — is Vaughan’s most significant long-term value anchor. Major employers including KPMG, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Cineplex have office presence in the VMC. Condo supply near the VMC is elevated (Vaughan Corporate Centre 84-day avg DOM, 8% SNLR) but long-term densification is a powerful demand driver. Short-term oversupply near VMC creates buyer opportunity; long-term, the subway connection and office buildout support appreciation for well-located units.
Vaughan Corporate Centre’s 84-day average DOM and 8% SNLR are the weakest readings of any Vaughan neighbourhood in February 2026. This reflects the combination of elevated condo completions near the VMC and investor-driven listings that are pricing above what the rental income can support. Buyers and investors targeting VMC condos should underwrite carefully: maintenance fees, net rental yield, and exit liquidity all require scrutiny before committing at current ask prices.
Vaughan has one of the GTA’s most diverse buyer pools, with strong demand historically from Italian-Canadian communities (Woodbridge), South Asian families (Maple, Vellore Village), and more recently from newcomers drawn to Kleinburg and Patterson. Reduced immigration targets for 2025–26 have softened near-term demand. Vaughan’s community infrastructure, school catchments, and highway access remain among the strongest long-term settlement draws in York Region — the demand pipeline is delayed, not cancelled.
For Vaughan’s detached median of $1,436,000, a 20% down payment ($287,200) leaves a $1,148,800 mortgage — requiring qualification at ~6.25% or approximately $227K household income. This is meaningful but more accessible than 2023 peaks. The November 2024 lender-switch exemption helps Vaughan’s renewal cohort avoid forced sales, supporting price stability in the detached segment through 2026 refinancing cycles.
CUSMA uncertainty and US tariff pressure are suppressing buyer confidence across York Region. Vaughan’s Highway 400 corridor has significant manufacturing and logistics employment — sectors directly exposed to tariff risk. Trade resolution would likely be the single biggest demand catalyst for Vaughan’s spring market. Equity-rich buyers currently waiting on the sidelines, particularly in the $1.5M–$2M detached tier, are positioned to act quickly when confidence returns.
Vaughan’s highway infrastructure — Hwys 400, 407, and 427 — provides employment access that few York Region municipalities can match. Combined with the York-Spadina subway extension (VMC station) and GO Bus connectivity, Vaughan offers one of the region’s most complete multimodal commuter networks. Patterson, Vellore Village, and Kleinburg all benefit from highway access premiums that persist through price cycles. Transit-proximate VMC and Maple GO Bus routes are consistently cited as buyer priorities.
Vaughan’s new construction pipeline — particularly near the VMC and in master-planned communities like Vellore Village — is adding resale competition for investor-owned units. New build completions that investors are now listing (often with elevated price expectations) are competing directly with resale. Short-term: adds supply pressure and caps price recovery in the condo segment. Long-term (2027+): as construction slows and population grows into the new supply, the supply/demand equation normalizes. The construction slowdown already underway in 2025–26 will tighten supply further by 2028.

Vaughan Rental Market — 2026 Overview
Vaughan’s rental market has rebalanced meaningfully from the tightness of 2022–23. VMC-area condo completions have added supply, particularly in the Vaughan Corporate Centre and Concord areas, while tenant demand has moderated alongside reduced immigration targets.
For Renters: Vaughan’s rental market in early 2026 favours tenants. VMC-area 2-bedroom condos are achievable in the $2,300–$2,600/month range — down from $2,700+ peaks. Vacancies near the VMC are elevated as investor-owned completions hit the market simultaneously. Negotiate on parking, locker, and first month — concessions are being offered. Properties near Maple GO Bus and Vaughan Corporate Centre subway station still command a premium over comparable units further from transit.
For Landlords: The VMC condo market is the most challenging rental segment in Vaughan right now — Vaughan Corporate Centre’s 8% SNLR and 84-day avg DOM in resale reflects the same oversupply dynamic in the rental market. Pricing at or slightly below comparable units, professional staging, and flexible lease terms (month-to-month availability) are the keys to minimizing vacancy. Townhouses in Patterson and Vellore Village have stronger rental demand profiles and better rent-to-price ratios than VMC condos at current price levels.
