Toronto Bungalow Market Report: November 2026 Price Trends
Toronto’s November 2026 bungalow report reviews October GTA trends and September Toronto detached-home data, with buyer and seller insights.
Quick answer: TRREB does not report bungalow sales separately. The most relevant public proxy is detached-home data, which includes bungalows as well as other detached property types. The latest figures available for this article show that Toronto’s detached-home median sold price was $1,200,000 in September 2026. Separately, the wider GTA recorded 5,603 home sales in October, down 7.9% year over year. These figures cover different periods and markets, so they should not be treated as a November bungalow-only price or sales count.
This Toronto bungalow market report brings together the latest available wider-market update and the most recent Toronto detached-home figures used as a bungalow proxy. It is intended to help buyers and sellers understand market direction, compare local conditions, and plan their next steps.
Toronto real estate market update: October 2026
TRREB reported 5,603 GTA home sales in October 2026, down 7.9% compared with October 2025. The average selling price was $1,024,108, down 2.7% year over year, while the MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark declined 4.3%. New listings totalled 14,173, and active listings stood at 25,098.
GTA market indicator | October 2026 |
|---|---|
Homes sold | 5,603 |
Average selling price | $1,024,108 |
Year-over-year change in average price | -2.7% |
Year-over-year change in composite benchmark | -4.3% |
New listings | 14,173 |
Active listings | 25,098 |
These are GTA-wide figures for all home types, not Toronto bungalow statistics. TRREB reported that seasonally adjusted sales and new listings both increased from September, while year-over-year sales remained lower.
Toronto bungalow prices: what the detached-home data shows
TRREB groups bungalows within its detached-home category rather than publishing a separate bungalow price series. For that reason, detached-home figures can provide context, but they cannot tell us the exact median price or number of bungalows sold.
In September 2026, detached homes in the City of Toronto recorded:
Toronto detached-home indicator | September 2026 |
|---|---|
Detached homes sold | 640 |
Average sold price | $1,562,966 |
Median sold price | $1,200,000 |
Average price year over year | -7.3% |
The average is higher than the median, which means the average transaction price is pulled upward by higher-priced sales. Buyers comparing bungalow prices should look at recent sales of similar homes in the same neighbourhood, rather than relying on the citywide average alone.
How prices and selling conditions vary by Toronto district
Toronto’s detached-home market varies substantially by district. The following September figures are all detached homes in each district, not bungalow-only results. They can help show why a single citywide figure may not reflect conditions in a particular neighbourhood.
TRREB District | Average Detached Price | Sold-To-List Ratio | Average Days on Market | Detached Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
W02 (west end) | $1,771,180 | 104% | 8 | 25 |
C04 (central) | $2,650,889 | 97% | 23 | 37 |
E04 (Scarborough) | $883,565 | 99% | 23 | 35 |
W10 (northwest) | $850,000 | 96% | 41 | 21 |
The table shows different conditions across the selected districts. For example, W02 detached homes sold above asking on average in this sample, while W10 homes sold below asking and took longer. These are small monthly samples, so treat them as context rather than a prediction for an individual bungalow.
Is Toronto a buyer’s or seller’s market for bungalows?
The broad market indicators point to more negotiating room than during a highly competitive market, but conditions vary by property and district. In September, Toronto homes across all types sold for about 99% of asking price and took an average of 33 days to sell. The report also showed approximately 4.6 months of inventory for the overall market. These figures are not bungalow-specific.
For bungalow buyers, the practical takeaway is to compare recent nearby sales, assess the property’s condition, and avoid assuming every listing will attract the same level of competition. For sellers, pricing should reflect comparable properties and current buyer response, not only the highest asking prices in the area.
Where can buyers find relatively lower-priced detached homes?
The September detached-home data shows that prices differ significantly across Toronto districts. In the selected examples above, the average detached price was lower in E04 and W10 than in W02 and C04. However, district averages include many detached home styles and are not a direct estimate of bungalow values.
Buyers looking for value should compare:
Recent sales of similar bungalow-style homes in the same area
Lot size, parking, layout, and overall condition
Renovation costs and whether planned work requires permits
Whether a basement or separate entrance has the required approvals
Total closing costs, including applicable land transfer tax
Why bungalows continue to appeal to Toronto buyers
Bungalows can suit buyers who value single-level living, want to reduce stair use, or are considering future accessibility needs. Some also offer larger lots or layouts that may allow future renovation, subject to zoning and property-specific restrictions.
Toronto permits multiplexes in many residential areas, but the number of units and what can be built depend on the property and applicable rules. Before budgeting for an addition, conversion, or additional unit, check the City’s current zoning and permit requirements rather than assuming a lot qualifies.
What should Toronto bungalow buyers and sellers do in November 2026?
Advice for buyers
Get mortgage pre-approval and confirm your budget, including closing costs.
Compare recent sold properties in the target neighbourhood, not just citywide averages.
Review the lot, layout, condition, and renovation requirements carefully.
Ask for documentation related to permits or completed renovations when relevant.
Advice for sellers
Set the asking price using recent comparable sales and the home’s condition.
Highlight the practical benefits of the layout, lot, parking, and updates.
Make the home easy to assess with clear listing details and good presentation.
Review buyer feedback and showing activity before deciding whether to adjust the price.
Final Thoughts
The latest available figures show a softer Toronto detached-home market in September and lower GTA sales year over year in October. Because TRREB does not publish bungalow-only statistics, detached-home data is a useful but imperfect proxy. Buyers and sellers should use local comparable sales and property-specific details to make decisions.

FAQs
What is the average bungalow price in Toronto in November 2026?
There is no separate bungalow-only figure in the TRREB data cited here. The latest Toronto detached-home proxy used in this report is the September 2026 average sold price of $1,562,966, with a median of $1,200,000. Detached homes include more than bungalows, so these figures should not be presented as bungalow-only prices.
How many bungalows sold in Toronto?
The cited TRREB figures report detached-home sales, not bungalow-only sales. In September 2026, 640 detached homes sold in the City of Toronto. This count includes bungalows and other detached styles.
Are Toronto bungalow prices rising or falling?
The Toronto detached-home average was down 7.3% year over year in September 2026. This gives broad context for bungalow buyers, but it does not establish the price trend for bungalows alone or for every neighbourhood.
Is November a good time to buy a bungalow in Toronto?
It may suit buyers who are financially prepared and willing to compare listings carefully. Market conditions differ by neighbourhood and property, so use recent comparable sales and your own budget rather than relying on a citywide headline.
