The average price for a home in Whitby was $905K in May 2026. This milestone reflects a housing market that remains firmly in favour of sellers, driven by strong demand and a tightening supply of available properties.
According to current market data from Zolo.ca, the average home price in town has seen a 3.7 per cent increase over the last month and a 2.3 per cent rise compared to this time last year, when prices sat at $876,000. While 363 new properties have entered the market in the last 28 days, active listings have dropped 23 per cent year-over-year, leaving only 255 homes currently available for sale.
The current conditions show that buyers are facing significant competition. Homes are selling in an average of 20 days, and on average, properties are selling for 100 per cent of their listed price. This fast-paced environment makes Whitby one of the most competitive areas within the broader region.
Analysis from John Owen, a real estate broker with RE/MAX Impact Realty, indicates that the Durham Region is currently leading the Greater Toronto Area in buyer competitiveness. Across all communities in the region, homes are spending an average of 23.9 days on the market, with about 3.8 months of inventory currently available.
