Detached houses are a different world, with a median of $1,884,000 across 118 listings. Townhouses sit between the two at $1,074,000. The overall median list price is $1,249,000, which lands you near the $1M to $1. 5M band where 58 homes compete. Where you fall on that scale decides almost everything.

Push past $500K and choice opens up fast. The $500K to $750K band holds 45 listings, most of them two-bedroom units where the median sits at $700,000 across 123 homes. Between $750K and $1M you get 34 options, a thinner stretch that often means a larger condo or a townhouse. The deepest pool sits at $1M to $1. 5M with 58 listings. That is where three-bedroom homes cluster, carrying a median of $1,499,999 across 43 of them. Step into the $1. 5M to $2. 5M band and 53 listings wait, the range where four and five bedrooms live. Four-bedroom homes run a median of $1,799,000. Five-bedroom homes reach $1,999,000. Above $2. 5M, 47 listings remain, and six-bedroom homes carry a median of $2,499,000. So the pattern is simple. More money buys more bedrooms and more square footage, and the widest selection sits right around the middle at $1M to $1. 5M.

Pick your band, then go see what is actually in it. With 275 active listings and 65 of them added in the last 30 days, the market is deep enough that a targeted search beats a broad one. If you are shopping condos, ask about the strata fee, which runs a median of $567 a month and changes your real cost more than list price alone suggests. Bring your number to a viewing this week.
