New data from the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) reveals the average home price dropped to $1,003,956 in July\u2014a 5.2% monthly decline and a 4.5% dip compared to last year.

Interestingly, the market is tightening not because of a surge in buyers, but because sellers are pulling back, with new listings plummeting 17.8% year-over-year. As the fall market approaches, the question remains: will sellers hold firm or will the pressure of lower comparables force a reset?
