If you're actively pursuing your goal of home ownership in Ontario, you might already be in one of the most ideal markets in Canada to turn those dreams into reality. According to a Zoocasa report released on Wednesday, major cities across Canada, including many in Ontario, are becoming more buyer-friendly, whereas smaller, more affordable regions are swinging in favour of sellers. The real estate agency analyzed which markets provided the best prospects based on the latest sales-to-new listing ratios, which were based on the respective local real estate boards' August 2025 data. This ratio, Zoocasa explains, is a "key indicator of market conditions," with a higher ratio (above 60 per cent) signalling a seller's market, while a lower one (below 40 per cent) indicates a buyer's market. Source: Zoocasa. The report found that the GTA is now one of Canada's clearest buyer-friendly markets, with its ratio falling from 40 per cen...
