The Toronto Regional Real Estate Board’s September 2025 Market Watch shows that detached home sales are still booming across the GTA. Even with higher interest rates and the cost-of-living crisis, buyers are seeking detached living due to the space, privacy, and comfort that it provides.

Detached homes have always been the most desired property type in the Greater Toronto Area, with this season being no different. Limited supply and steady demand have allowed prices for detached homes to hold strong, keeping homeownership out of reach for many GTA families.

But just down the QEW, there is a different story unfolding.

Top Value in Niagara / Exceptional Value in Niagara

In the Niagara Region, buyers are discovering that they can still purchase high-quality detached homes in established, welcoming residential communities, and at remarkable prices compared to the GTA.

Why More Buyers Are Looking West

As GTA home prices continue to rise, Niagara has become one of the few regions offering new-build quality, space, and premium lifestyle, without the premium price tag.

Whether you’re a growing family, looking for a change of pace, or wanting to downsize, custom home builders like Blythwood provide the opportunity to enjoy the home you’ve always wanted, within a community that feels like home the second you arrive.

There’s never been a better time to look beyond the city and see what’s possible in Niagara.

Niagara offers more home for your investment: spacious lots, scenic settings, and modern open-concept layouts crafted for everyday comfort and convenience. And for many, buying a new home isn’t just about affordability, it’s about a lifestyle upgrade.  

Between the region’s scenic beauty, growing amenities, and easy access to the GTA, Niagara has become one of Ontario’s most desirable places to live.
