The action

This three-bedroom townhouse about 50 kilometres north of downtown Toronto was posted for sale with an asking price a shade under $1.4-million less than a year and a half after the owner paid $1,335,000 for it. They fully expected buyers might push for an even lower price. Working with one of the home’s few visitors, they agreed to a sale price of $1.3-million – $35,000 less than what they had paid in 2023.

Real estate agent Ira Jelinek said the outcome had to be seen in the context of current market conditions.

“Real estate in that area does really well in a good market and holds its own in not such great markets,” said Mr. Jelinek. “Like if someone bought a condo in 2023, its [value] might be down 20 to 40 per cent. Here, they’re down maybe 2 per cent.”
