Winnipeg Housing Market Report

This Winnipeg housing market report tracks average sale prices, rents, vacancy and property tax across Winnipeg Census Metropolitan Area, using Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board, July 2026 and CMHC rental data.

Winnipeg average price by property type

What each kind of home costs in Winnipeg Census Metropolitan Area, and how far apart a house and an apartment have moved.

Detached

$454,264

House, not attached to a neighbour

All property types

$408,020

Board average

Condo

$290,522

The usual entry point

Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board, July 2026, for Winnipeg Census Metropolitan Area. A detached home costs 1.6× what a condo does here. Detached, all types and condo are the same measure from the same release (board average), so they can be compared with each other, though not directly against another city’s differently-measured figure. Winnipeg’s board does not publish a townhouse figure we hold, so this report leaves that segment out rather than estimating it.

Average cost by property type in Winnipeg

What each kind of home costs, from the same release.

All three from Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board, July 2026, on the same basis (board average), so they can be compared with each other. Winnipeg's board does not publish a townhouse or row-house figure we hold, so this report shows the three segments it does publish rather than estimating a fourth.

What it costs to buy

The benchmark, where it has moved in twelve months, and the land transfer cheque that clears on closing day.

At the benchmark, 20% down, no rebate

Condo benchmark

$290,522

The usual entry point

Manitoba's land transfer tax has no first-time buyer rebate, but the brackets are low enough that the cheque stays modest relative to Ontario or BC. Probate has cost nothing in Manitoba since 2020.

Price and twelve month change: Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board, July 2026. The closing figure is Manitoba land transfer tax (no first-time rebate), calculated on the Board average at 20% down with no first-time rebate applied.

What your comparables are worth now

A rising market on the lowest average price in the set. Because the board publishes averages, a handful of high-end sales can lift the headline figure without any individual street moving, which is worth knowing before pricing to the monthly release.

Sales counts, days on market and months of inventory are not published for Winnipeg in a form we hold, so this report does not show them. Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board reports prices at the board level; only TRREB publishes community-level activity, which is why Toronto is the one report here that carries those figures. We would rather omit a number than estimate it.

Detached and condo figures are from the same release as the composite, so the spread between them is like-for-like. What comes out of the sale price is a provincial question. See the commission calculator and the sale proceeds calculator.

What the rent covers

Sitting rents, CMHC vacancy, gross yield on the benchmark, and the property tax drag underneath it.

Rent, 2 bedroom

$1,550

Per month, asking

Vacancy

2.8%

Winnipeg CMA, purpose-built

Gross yield

4.6%

Annual rent over price, before costs

Property tax

$5,059

1.24% on the benchmark, per year

Winnipeg pairs 2.8% vacancy with the highest effective property tax treatment in the set once portioning and the school levy are applied. The low entry price carries the yield; the tax line is what erodes it.

Vacancy describes Winnipeg CMA, purpose-built and comes from CMHC Rental Market Report, October 2025. That area is wider than Winnipeg itself, so treat it as the backdrop rather than the rate on one building. Gross yield is annual two-bedroom rent over the Board average, before vacancy, tax, insurance and maintenance. It is not a cap rate. Property tax is Winnipeg’s residential rate of 1.24% applied to that same price.

How Winnipeg compares

The same measures across all eight markets. Switch the measure to move the ranking.

Where Winnipeg ranks

Benchmark, median or average price. Winnipeg is 8th of the eight markets on this measure.

Each board's own headline price figure. Montreal is a median and Winnipeg an average, so those two answer a slightly different question than the six benchmarks.

Price and twelve month change come from each city’s own board, on the month named in that city’s report. They are not all the same month, and Montreal and Winnipeg publish medians and averages rather than a benchmark. Rents are market asking rents; vacancy is CMHC purpose-built for the CMA named on each report page, which is wider than the city proper.

What each segment costs in Winnipeg against Toronto.

  • Winnipeg
  • Toronto

Same board release in each city, so the segments are like-for-like within a market. Across markets the measurement differs: Winnipeg Regional Real Estate Board, July 2026 against TRREB, June 2026.

Tax on closing, as the price climbs

Land transfer, property transfer, welcome or deed tax at 20% down, with no first-time rebate.

  • Winnipeg
  • Toronto

Calculated from each province’s published brackets, the same functions behind our calculators. Winnipeg: Manitoba land transfer tax (no first-time rebate). Toronto: Ontario LTT + Toronto municipal LTT. Alberta charges no land transfer tax at all, so its line is registration fees only and stays near the axis.

Sources

Every figure on this page, and where it came from.

Prices come from Winnipeg's own board on the month named above. Vacancy is CMHC's, and the tax figures are calculated from the published rates and brackets rather than quoted from a listing. Where a board publishes its release on the open web but we do not hold the link, the release is cited by name.
