In a Toronto neighbourhood where houses on average sell for $1.4 million and more, finding a home for almost half that price feels too good to be true. 54 Morberly Ave. is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached house just steps from the Danforth, and it's listed for only $799,000. One reason the home might be listed for so low is that they want to incite a bidding war. An aerial shot of the house and property. Which, in most neighbourhoods, is not a thing that's happening right now. But the Danforth is one of the few neighbourhoods that is still seeing overbidding. The living room with a fireplace. The other reason this house might be listed well below the neighbourhood average is because this is the first time the home has been listed in decades, according to the listing, and likely needs a lot of work. The dining room. Don't get us wrong, the house does have some things going for it, like a good layout and lots of natural ligh...

14 h. ago Toronto rent prices continue to fall and are the cheapest they've been in years

Though Toronto is still very far from being considered an affordable place to live, rent prices in the city have been on a consistent downward trajectory for many months now, and the latest figures from March 2025 are no different.By the end of 2024, the average cost of an apartment in the Big Smoke had plummeted to the cheapest level it had been in more than two years, which has now extended into a whopping 32-month low.New reports from listing platforms like Zumper and Rentals.ca show that though it's still far pricier to nab a place in the GTA than almost anywhere else in the country, tenants are being afforded more financial wiggle room than they have in previous years, with the monthly rent of all sizes of units ever-lowering while the real estate market falters.As of last month, the typical one-bedroom unit in the region has dropped to around $2,300, marking a small reduction both month-over-month and year-over-year (by 0.4 per cent and ...
