Toronto Buyers Are Combining Condo Units | Experience matters. Results follow

Toronto’s condo landscape is shifting, and it’s fascinating to see how today’s buyers are shaping the market. Two boutique projects—one near Yorkville and the Annex, another in north Toronto—are finding success by focusing on end users rather than investors. For example, the Yorkville-area project is about 40% sold, but what stands out is how many buyers are combining smaller suites to create custom homes averaging around $3M before finishes. Meanwhile, the north Toronto project has reduced its planned unit count to about 500, offering more spacious two- and three-bedroom layouts. That’s a clear response to the growing demand from downsizers—people looking for luxury or simply a better fit for their lifestyle, even if it means a longer sales cycle than we saw in the boom years. One project is moving forward with its own capital, despite modest presales, while the other is aiming for 2027 construction after meeting financing goals. As someone who’s helped Toronto families navigate every stage of life—from first purchases to downsizing—I see these new options as a welcome evolution. It’s all about finding a home that truly fits, and I’m always here to help guide clients through these changing choices.
