Caledon is the slowest market we cover, and right now that helps buyers. At the end of August 2026 there were 441 homes for sale and only 65 sold in the month. Sellers waited an average of 65 days from first listing to sale and accepted about 96 per cent of the asking price.
Caledon home prices in August 2026
The average Caledon home sold for $1,120,586 and the median was $1,020,000. Three of every four sales were detached houses, and not a single condo apartment sold.
| Home type | Sales | Average price | Median price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 49 | $1,242,900 | $1,140,000 |
| Freehold townhouse | 12 | $766,333 | $780,000 |
| Semi-detached | 2 | $820,000 | $820,000 |
| Condo townhouse | 2 | $549,990 | $549,990 |
With so few sales, one estate property can move the monthly average by tens of thousands of dollars. The benchmark price, which tracks a typical home, was $1,075,600 in August, down 6.68 per cent from a year earlier. That was the largest annual drop of the six cities we follow.
The detached numbers show where the negotiating room is: 382 detached homes were listed at month end against 49 sales. A buyer with financing in place can take time, compare several properties and ask for conditions on inspection and financing.
Town or country: the three places most buyers look
Caledon covers more land than Brampton and Mississauga combined, and most of it is farmland, forest and protected Greenbelt. Subdivision housing is concentrated in three places.
Bolton
The largest community, in the southeast corner on Highway 50. It has the widest range of ages and prices, from 1970s bungalows near the old downtown to newer detached homes on the north and west hills. It suits commuters heading to Vaughan, the airport area or Highway 427.
Mayfield West and Southfields Village
Just north of Brampton, where Highway 410 ends at Highway 10. Almost everything here was built after 2010, and this is where most of Caledon’s freehold townhouses and semis are. It is the nearest thing in Caledon to a Brampton subdivision, with a quicker drive to the 410 than much of north Brampton has.
Caledon East
A village on Airport Road with the town hall, a community complex and the Caledon Trailway running through it. Homes are mostly detached on wider lots, and new phases are still being built, including Upper Caledon East.
Villages and rural properties
Inglewood, Cheltenham, Palgrave, Alton, Belfountain and Caledon Village are small, with few listings at any time. Between them are acreages, hobby farms and estate lots. Prices vary so much with land, outbuildings and condition that averages tell you very little here.
What to check on a rural property
Buying outside the serviced areas is different from buying in a subdivision. Build these into your offer conditions:
- Well: a water test for bacteria and a flow test showing the well keeps up with household use.
- Septic: an inspection and pump-out, plus the age and location of the tank and bed. Replacing a failed system is a major expense.
- Protected land: much of Caledon falls under the Greenbelt, the Oak Ridges Moraine or the Niagara Escarpment plans, and the conservation authorities regulate land near rivers and wetlands. These rules can limit additions, pools, new buildings and severances. Confirm what is allowed before you buy with plans to build.
- Heating and internet: ask what fuel the house uses and what it cost last winter, and check which internet providers actually serve the address.
- Farmland: lenders often want a larger down payment on acreage, and HST can apply to part of a farm purchase. Speak with your lawyer and mortgage broker early.
Commuting from Caledon
Caledon has no GO train station. Commuters drive, or take a GO bus from Bolton. Highway 410 reaches the southwest corner at Mayfield West, Highway 50 and Highway 427 serve Bolton, and Highway 10 and Airport Road run north through the middle. The planned Highway 413 would cross the south end of the town, which is worth knowing if you are looking at land near the route.
New homes in Caledon
New construction here is mostly detached homes and townhouses in subdivisions. We currently track Ellis Lane and Upper Caledon East, with details in the Caledon pre-construction list. If you are weighing a builder home against a resale, read new home vs resale home.
Closing costs
Caledon has no municipal land transfer tax. On the average $1,120,586 home the Ontario tax is $18,887, or $14,887 for a first-time buyer after the provincial refund. Work out your own figure with the land transfer tax calculator. On a rural purchase, budget for the well, septic and survey work as well.
