About Markham Real Estate — Homes, Condos & New Developments
Markham consistently ranks among the most desirable communities in the Greater Toronto Area — and for good reason. Excellent schools, a thriving technology and business sector, world-class recreational facilities, and a diverse, welcoming community make Markham an exceptional place to live and invest.
Why Markham Stands Out
- Top-ranked schools: Markham is home to some of Ontario’s highest-rated public and Catholic schools, including Pierre Elliott Trudeau High School, Bill Crothers Secondary School, and Markham District High School
- Technology hub: Home to IBM Canada, AMD, Apple, Huawei, and over 1,000 high-tech companies — driving strong employment and housing demand
- Highway access: Excellent connectivity via Highway 407, 404, and 401
- Unionville: One of the GTA’s most charming historic main streets — boutique shops, restaurants, and heritage architecture
- Pan Am Centre & Markham Civic Centre: World-class recreational and community facilities
- Diverse community: One of Canada’s most multicultural communities — with outstanding Asian cuisine, cultural festivals, and community organizations
Markham Real Estate Overview
Markham’s housing market is anchored by strong family demand, particularly for detached and semi-detached homes in established communities like Cornell, Unionville, Milliken, and Thornhill.
- Detached homes: $1,100,000–$1,800,000 depending on size, area, and lot
- Townhouses: $750,000–$1,050,000 — highly competitive due to limited supply
- Condos: $550,000–$780,000 — growing supply near transit corridors
Top Markham Communities
- Unionville: Premium prices; historic charm; one of the most sought-after addresses in the GTA
