While we\u2019ve seen promising signs of recovery since early Q2\u2014resales picking up, inventory stabilizing, and price declines slowing\u2014the outlook suggests a steady climb rather than a dramatic surge. Projections for 2026 indicate home resales could dip about 4% to 453,200 units, with benchmark prices easing roughly 2% to $794,200, even with recent positive momentum. Looking further ahead to 2027, the forecast points to a 7% bump in resales and a modest rise in benchmark values, just under 1% to $800,700. This paints a picture of gradual recovery, not a boom. A notable factor is pent-up demand, with estimates that more than 400,000 Canadian households have delayed forming since 2019. Of course, much will depend on how affordability, growth, and consumer confidence play out\u2014especially since rates seem to have bottomed and global trade tensions remain a wildcard.
