Real estate and housing markets
Where can I find official Canadian housing market data?
CMHC publishes research and data on housing supply, rental markets and financing. Begin with a location and a measure: construction, rents, sale prices and forecasts describe different things. A national trend is not a valuation of an individual home.
Where to begin
- Choose the city or region and the housing measure you need.
- Use CMHC’s data and research directories to find the relevant table or report.
- Read the reference period and methodology. Keep forecasts separate from actual observations.
Before you open the official service
- City or region
- Rentals, new construction, financing or another measure
- Time period and property type
Keep your actual documents and account details off this website. Use the official service’s current checklist before applying.
What to check for your situation
This guide is not a live property-listing service or an appraisal. Some official tables require selecting a geography or downloading a file; chat must say when the exact local figure has not been retrieved.
Fees, processing times and document rules can change. This page helps you navigate; it does not confirm eligibility or replace the government’s instructions.
