What SOLD Last Month in Midtown Toronto? July 2025
Summer Market Surprises in Midtown (July 2025)
July is often a quieter month in Midtown Toronto. Families travel, long weekends break up the month, and buyers sometimes take a pause before the busy fall market.
But July 2025 didn’t follow a single, predictable pattern. Some neighbourhoods posted strong price gains — even double-digit month-over-month jumps — while others saw sharp pullbacks. Detached homes led the swings in both directions, condos had a mixed performance depending on location, and townhomes remained scarce.
What’s clear is this: Midtown Toronto has become a hyper-local market.
Neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood trends differ so much that broad “Toronto averages” are no longer enough to guide your decisions.
Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply watching from the sidelines, understanding the micro-market is now essential — and that’s exactly what this report delivers.
July 2025 at a Glance – Midtown & Uptown Collective Trends
Before we zoom in on each neighbourhood, here’s what stood out across Midtown:
Detached homes: Price swings ranged from +61% (Forest Hill South) to -30% (Annex) month-over-month.
Semi-detached: Very limited sales in many areas; price changes often skewed by small sample sizes.
Townhomes: Rare but commanding premium prices in certain locations — like $1.975M in Yonge & St. Clair.
Condos: Wide variance, from huge declines (Mount Pleasant East down 66%) to big jumps (Lawrence Park North up 45%).
Days on Market: Ranged from just 13 days in Forest Hill North to 59 days in Forest Hill South.
% of sales over asking: Hot spots like Leaside (35.3%) and Mount Pleasant East (33.3%) still saw bidding wars, while Forest Hill North and South saw none.
These numbers paint a market where opportunity and competition coexist — but not in the same places.
Neighbourhood-by-Neighbourhood Breakdown
Lawrence Park South
Detached: $2,856,250 avg (+10%), 12 sold
Condo: $816,667 avg (-71%), 3 sold
Median DOM: 42
% Sold Above Asking: 26.7%
Detached prices climbed 10%, a sign that the top end of the market here remains resilient. This is a classic family neighbourhood, and demand for renovated, well-located homes continues even in summer.
The condo market told a different story — average prices dropped 71%. This doesn’t necessarily mean values collapsed; more likely, July saw a higher number of entry-level sales skewing the numbers down.
Buyer insight: If you’ve been eyeing a condo here, this summer may be your best shot at a value buy. Detached buyers should be ready for competition if targeting prime homes.
Seller insight: Detached homeowners still have leverage, but condos will need sharper pricing and presentation to stand out.
Lawrence Park North
Detached: $2,309,000 avg (-19%), 6 sold
Semi: $1,487,600 avg (-3%), 5 sold
Condo: $1,166,000 avg (+45%), 3 sold
Median DOM: 14
% Sold Above Asking: 14.3%
Detached prices softened almost 20%, which can mean motivated sellers or more modest properties trading hands. In contrast, condos surged 45%, suggesting higher-end units are coming back into play.
Buyer insight: Detached shoppers may find some negotiating room here. Condo buyers should note the upward price momentum.
Seller insight: Detached listings need competitive positioning. Condo sellers might be able to push pricing if quality and location are strong.
Yonge & Eglinton
Detached: $2,088,333 avg (-16%), 3 sold
Semi: $1,084,250 avg (-1%), 2 sold
Condo: $543,900 avg (-28%), 2 sold
Median DOM: 27
% Sold Above Asking: 28.6%
Across-the-board dips here point to a slower summer moment — but with over a quarter of listings still selling above asking, demand hasn’t disappeared. Well-presented properties in walkable spots still move quickly.
Buyer insight: This is a prime opportunity window for condos, given the nearly 30% month-over-month drop.
Seller insight: Focus on presentation and realistic pricing — buyers here still pay a premium for quality, even in a quieter month.
Mount Pleasant East
Detached: $1,949,714 avg (-10%), 7 sold

% Sold Above Asking: 33.3%
Despite detached and condo prices falling, one-third of sales still went over asking. This shows that the best listings are still triggering bidding wars. The semi-detached market even saw a slight gain.
Buyer insight: Detached buyers can negotiate on some listings, but expect competition for the best ones.
Seller insight: Well-prepared homes will stand out and still achieve strong results here.
Mount Pleasant West
Detached: $2,785,000 avg (+100%), 1 sold

Condo: $662,666 avg (-5%), 41 sold
Median DOM: 22
% Sold Above Asking: 13.6%

Forest Hill North
Detached: $2,459,706 avg (+1%), 3 sold

Seller insight: Pricing competitively is essential to stand out in a busy market.
What This Means for Buyers
July’s market shows that opportunities vary by neighbourhood and property type. If you’re strategic, you can take advantage of dips — especially in condos and detached homes in certain areas. But don’t expect bargains everywhere; the best listings still draw competition.
What This Means for Sellers
If your neighbourhood is one of the hotter ones (like Leaside or Forest Hill South), you may still see strong pricing power. But even in strong markets, the gap between “well-prepared” and “average” listings is widening. Staging, marketing, and pricing precision are critical.
For Those on the Sidelines
Waiting can be smart — but it can also mean missing the best moments. With August and September ahead, now is the time to start planning, so you can move quickly when the right property comes up or the right offer lands on your home.
