Taunton, Oshawa - October 2026 Real Estate Report
Taunton, Oshawa Real Talk: Your Home Is Worth More Than the City Thinks
The Vibe Right Now
If you own in Taunton, you are sitting in one of Oshawa's pricier postal codes - and the data backs that up. But the market is sending mixed signals depending on whether you own a house or a condo. Here is the honest breakdown.
Houses: Still the Top Dog in Oshawa
Taunton houses are holding serious weight. The average sale price sits at $1,140,000, and listings are coming in at $1,160,000 this month. Buyers are paying 98.28% of list price, which means they are negotiating a little - but not running for the exits. This is a stable market, not a panicked one.
- Average sale price: $1,140,000
- Average list price this month: $1,160,000
- Price per square foot: $415
- Average days on market: 17 days
- Sale-to-list ratio: 98.28% - buyers are paying just under ask
- Predicted market value: $1,160,690
- 3-month moving average: $1,075,702 - values are trending up from that baseline
- Recent value change: 8.97%
- Estimated monthly rent: $4,659 with a rental yield of 4.42%
- Airbnb potential: $231 per month
Here is the stat that should make Taunton house owners feel good: growth rate ranks 1 out of 20 neighbourhoods in Oshawa. That is not a participation trophy - that is the top of the leaderboard. On price, Taunton also ranks 1 out of 9, meaning we are the most expensive neighbourhood in that comparison set. Days on market ranks 5 out of 9, so homes are not flying off the shelf, but they are not sitting either. Seventeen days is a reasonable run time for a property at this price point.
How does Taunton stack up against the neighbours? Kedron is close at an average HonestDoor Price of $1,117,535, but Pinecrest ($912,911) and Samac ($812,854) are noticeably cheaper. If buyers get priced out of Taunton, those are the next stops - which keeps demand pressure on us.
Condos: Decent, But Taking a Breather
The condo picture is a bit more cautious. The average HonestDoor Price for a Taunton condo is $644,170, down 3.87% from the previous period. The predicted market value of $670,117 is actually sitting slightly below the 3-month moving average of $675,457 - a sign that condo values here are softening a touch, not surging.
- Average HonestDoor Price: $644,170 - down 3.87%
- Predicted market value: $670,117
- 3-month moving average: $675,457 - values are easing back from that level
- Recent value change: 1.03%
- Estimated monthly rent: $3,095 to $3,196
- Rental yield: 3.51%
- Airbnb potential: $153 per night - ranked 3rd in Oshawa
- Growth rank: 7 out of 19 neighbourhoods - above average, but not leading the pack
A growth rank of 7 out of 19 puts Taunton condos in the above-average tier - better than most, but not the headline act. The good news for condo owners is that Taunton still commands a premium over every nearby neighbourhood. Pinecrest condos are predicted at $587,797, Kedron at $455,700, and Samac at $401,806. Taunton is still the most expensive condo market in this comparison group by a clear margin.
The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment
Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation does not update values in real time. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved on.
The HonestDoor Price is a live estimate. It is recalculated using current sales data, neighbourhood trends, and real market activity. For Taunton house owners, the HonestDoor Price is $1,082,697. For condo owners, it is $644,170. These numbers reflect what the market is actually doing right now - not what it was doing two or three years ago when the city last looked.
If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just understanding your net worth - the HonestDoor Price is the number to start with. Relying on a stale government assessment in a market that has moved 8.97% on houses is leaving real money on the table.
The So What - Should You Sell This Summer?
If you own a house in Taunton and have been thinking about selling, the timing argument is not bad. You are in the number one growth neighbourhood in Oshawa. Predicted values are climbing above the 3-month average. Buyers are still paying close to full ask. Seventeen days on market is not a fire sale pace, but it is not a grind either. The window is open.
The one thing to watch: only one house sold in the data period we are looking at. That is a thin sample. Taunton is a premium, lower-volume market - which means pricing it right matters more here than almost anywhere else in the city. Come in too high and you sit. Come in sharp and you move.
For condo owners, summer is a reasonable time to list, but go in with clear eyes. Values are slightly off their recent peak. You still command a premium over every nearby neighbourhood, and a rental yield of 3.51% gives investors a reason to look. But do not expect a bidding war - price it to sell, not to test the market.
Bottom line: Taunton is still one of the strongest addresses in Oshawa. Check your HonestDoor Price today, know what you actually own, and make your move with real numbers - not a government estimate that has not caught up to your street yet.
