## Balanced February 2026 Market Reading

Jefferson recorded a sales to new listings ratio of 43 percent during the February 2026 observation period. The source identifies this level as balanced territory for the neighbourhood. This single monthly reading indicates that sales absorbed less than half of the new listings introduced that month. No prior month or annual comparison is supplied in the local evidence.

The same report notes that Jefferson showed pockets of genuine demand alongside North Richvale and Devonsleigh. That characterization relies on the February 2026 snapshot rather than a multi-month trend. A 43 percent ratio means buyers purchased 43 out of every 100 new listings added in that month. Without additional periods, the reading cannot confirm whether momentum is building or fading. Sources:

## Amenity Points Mapped in the Neighbourhood

One hundred nineteen amenity points are attributed to Jefferson across seven categories. Transit stops account for 68 of those points, followed by 23 parks, 17 recreation sites, 5 schools, 3 childcare centres, 2 grocery stores and 1 dog park. These counts reflect mapped presence only and do not measure service frequency, quality, or proximity to individual homes. Named locations include MacLeod's Landing Public School, Tower Hill Dog Park, Farm Boy and Sobeys.

The concentration of transit stop points along Yonge Street, Jefferson Sideroad, Tower Hill Road and Rollinghill Road suggests multiple bus routes serve the area. However, the mapped count does not establish route numbers, headways, or commute times. Schools such as Moraine Hills Public School and St. Marguerite D'Youville Catholic Elementary School appear in the dataset without catchment boundaries. Recreation programs listed at city facilities like Ed Sackfield Arena are not confirmed as available within Jefferson. Sources:

## City market context

From the Richmond Hill market article, 11 October 2026:

Richmond Hill recorded a 29% Sales to New Listings Ratio and 6.5 months of inventory in February 2026. The median sale price stood at $1,124,500 across all property types. The combination of a 29% Sales to New Listings Ratio and 6.5 months of inventory in February 2026 indicates a buyer-favourable environment in Richmond Hill, offering negotiating leverage despite a high median sale price of $1,124,500.
