Stuck in a Condo? Here's How Lendworth Can Help You Move Up—Even in a Soft Market

As summer heats up, Toronto’s housing market is sending mixed signals—especially for condo owners. While some homebuyers are seeing new opportunities, thousands of condo dwellers are feeling stuck, unsure of how to sell, upgrade, or access the equity they thought they had.

The problem? The GTA condo market has stalled.

Condo Market Glut: The Numbers Don't Lie

  • Condo sales in the GTA are down over 21% year-over-year.
  • Inventory has more than doubled, leading to longer listing times and lower prices.
  • Prices continue to slide, with no quick recovery in sight, especially for high-rise units in oversupplied neighborhoods.

This is happening while detached homes, townhomes, and semis are showing signs of stabilization—even resilience. But for condo owners looking to upgrade, the transition is more difficult than ever.

The Dilemma: Sell at a Loss or Sit and Wait?

Many owners planned to use their condo equity to upgrade to a larger home—especially families planning to grow, remote workers seeking more space, or investors looking to reallocate. But the math no longer works as it once did.

  • Selling now could mean a lower-than-expected valuation.
  • Waiting may only prolong uncertainty.
  • Upgrading is risky if your current unit doesn’t move quickly.

The result? A growing number of would-be sellers are opting out—or turning to alternative financing options.
