What this means for your mortgage
This is the strongest rental-income market on the site, and the place where using it well matters most. Confirm whether an existing suite is legal and registered — it changes which lenders will use the income and how much of it. If you are buying as an investor rather than to occupy, expect a 20% minimum down payment: rental properties you do not live in cannot be insured. If you will live in one unit of a two-unit property, you can put down as little as 5%, which is a completely different proposition and one a lot of buyers here do not realise is available.

Is Oshawa a buyer's or seller's market?+

How does Oshawa compare with the wider GTA?+
This page covers Oshawa on its own, as TRREB reports it. The region-wide figures are on the main housing market page, and the two often move differently — the GTA average blends downtown condos with Halton and Durham freeholds, so a single municipality is usually the more useful number when you are buying in one.
How current are these numbers?+
TRREB publishes a month's figures in the first week of the following month, and this page is rebuilt from that release. The most recent month here is August 2026.
