Aug 3 2022, 8:52 pm

The average selling price of a condo in the Greater Toronto Area hit $769,999 in the second quarter of the year, but many properties have changed hands for far less in the last month.

Real estate agency Zoocasa has rounded up five of the most affordable homes that sold in the GTA in July. All condos, some are move-in ready, while others could use a few repairs; some provide parking while others have enviable amenities.

Despite their differences, the one-, two-, and even three-bedroom units all sold at or below the listed price as rising interest rates weighed on the real estate market.

Check out five of the cheapest homes that sold in the GTA last month, below.
