What Is Happening in the Vaughan Real Estate Market?

The Vaughan real estate market in September 2026 delivered very different results depending on the type of property being bought or sold.

Detached homes averaged nearly $1.6 million and remained slightly above their September 2025 average. At the other end of the market, condo apartment prices experienced a significant year-over-year decline.

These numbers reinforce an important point for Vaughan buyers and sellers: no single market condition applies equally to every home.

Here's a closer look at the latest Vaughan housing market statistics for September 2026.

Vaughan Real Estate Market at a Glance

The broader Greater Toronto Area recorded an average sale price of $1,006,409, up 1.31% month-over-month but down 5.00% year-over-year.

GTA inventory reached 26,131 active listings, increasing 6.74% from August while remaining 9.3% below last year.

In Vaughan, however, individual property categories told a different story.

Detached Homes in Vaughan

The average price of a detached home in Vaughan was $1,599,218 in September.

There were 594 active detached listings and 108 sales, with properties spending an average of 38 days on the market.

Average detached prices were:

Month-over-month: -4.34%
Year-over-year: +1.25%

While detached prices declined from August, they remained 1.25% higher than September 2025.

For anyone buying or selling a detached home in Vaughan, this contrast shows why you should consider both short-term and year-over-year trends when evaluating current market conditions.

Semi-Detached Homes in Vaughan

Semi-detached homes averaged $1,024,654.

There were 42 active listings, 13 sales, and an average time on market of 30 days.

Prices increased 1.38% month-over-month but remained 7.37% below September 2025.

With relatively few transactions in this segment in September, buyers and sellers should closely review recent comparable properties when evaluating an individual home.

Vaughan Townhouse Market

Attached, row and townhouse properties averaged $992,857 in September.

There were 124 active listings and 21 sales, with an average of 32 days on the market.

Prices declined 5.89% from August and 2.59% year over year.

For buyers considering a Vaughan townhouse, the current selection and recent comparable sales can provide important context when evaluating asking prices.

For sellers, competing inventory makes accurate positioning particularly important.

Condo Townhouses in Vaughan

The average Vaughan condo townhouse price was $747,688.

The market recorded 77 active listings and just 8 sales, while the average property spent 64 days on the market.

Prices declined 3.48% month-over-month and 0.85% year-over-year.

The 64-day average time on market is particularly important for sellers to watch. In a market where properties can take longer to sell, pricing and presentation need to reflect the competition buyers currently have available.

Vaughan Condo Apartment Market

The condo apartment segment produced one of September's most notable statistics.

The average Vaughan condo apartment price was $548,958, down 9.66% from August and 15.34% compared with September 2025.

There were 420 active condo apartment listings, 62 sales, and an average of 53 days on the market.

For condo buyers, these conditions may offer more opportunities to compare available properties and assess value.

For condo sellers, understanding recent sales within the building and immediate surrounding area is especially important. A GTA-wide or even Vaughan-wide average cannot determine what an individual condo is worth.

Are Vaughan Home Prices Going Up or Down?

It depends on the property type.

That's one of the clearest conclusions from the September 2026 Vaughan real estate statistics.

Detached homes were 1.25% higher year-over-year, despite declining from August.

Semi-detached homes were down 7.37% year-over-year.

Attached, row and townhouses were down 2.59%.

Condo townhouses were down 0.85%.

Condo apartments recorded the largest annual change at -15.34%.

Rather than asking whether the entire Vaughan real estate market is rising or falling, buyers and sellers should look at the segment—and ultimately the neighbourhood and individual property—that applies to them.

Is September 2026 a Good Time to Buy a Home in Vaughan?

For some buyers, current conditions may create opportunities.

Available inventory gives buyers properties to compare, while several Vaughan housing categories are trading below their year-ago average prices.

But averages don't mean every home is negotiable or every property represents good value.

Location, condition, upgrades, lot size, property type and recent comparable sales can all affect the appropriate price for a particular Vaughan home.

A buyer should understand those factors before deciding what—and how—to offer.

What Does the September Market Mean for Vaughan Sellers?

For sellers, September's numbers emphasize the importance of entering the market with a strategy based on current conditions rather than past expectations.

Buyers can compare your property with competing listings in real time.

That means pricing, photography, presentation, and marketing all shape how a property competes once it hits the market.

This becomes particularly important in segments where average days on market are longer or where prices have declined from last year.

The goal isn't simply to list a Vaughan property. It's to position it effectively against the homes buyers are considering today.
