The best realtor in Concord for 2027 pulls comparables from the right TRREB community, explains how rail and industry nearby affect value, and puts every fee in writing. Vaughan’s detached median was $1,415,000 from January to October 2026, down 5.0%, and condo apartments fell 10.9%. Commission is negotiable, so interview at least three agents.
This guide is for people who own a home or condo in Concord and plan to sell in 2027, and for buyers who like its location between Highway 400, Highway 407 and Dufferin Street. You will get Vaughan’s real price numbers, what makes Concord different to buy and sell, the questions to ask any agent, and how commission works in Ontario.
What and where is Concord in Vaughan?
The name Concord means two different things, and that matters when you price a home. In the broad, historic sense, Concord is a large district of the City of Vaughan. It runs roughly from Steeles Avenue in the south to Rutherford Road in the north, and from Highway 400 in the west to Dufferin Street in the east. It also takes in the Carrville area, which reaches east to Bathurst Street between Rutherford Road and Highway 7. The Highway 7 corridor from Highway 400 to just east of Jane Street is now planned as the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre.
TRREB, the board whose MLS data most GTA agents use, draws a much smaller line. Its Vaughan community report lists Concord as one community, and nearby areas such as Glen Shields, Beverley Glen and Crestwood-Springfarm-Yorkhill as separate ones. So a home a neighbour calls “Concord” may be filed under another community name on MLS. A careful agent pulls comparable sales from the right community, then checks the streets around it.
A short history
Concord became a postal village in 1854. The name likely honours Hiram White, who came to Vaughan Township in 1818 from Concord, Vermont. Suburban growth began in the 1950s after Highway 400 opened. Glen Shields was built mostly in the 1970s and 1980s, and the Dufferin Hill area near Dufferin Street and Rutherford Road in the 2000s. Highway 407 opened in 1997, and Vaughan Mills mall was completed in 2004.
What should you know about living near Concord’s industry and rail lines?
Concord is Vaughan’s main industrial district. Industry and business grew along Highway 7 and Keele Street from the 1970s, and CN’s MacMillan Yard, a large freight rail yard, sits in the area. That mix of homes, plants and rail is normal for Concord, but it changes what a buyer should check and what a seller should be ready to answer.
- Noise and truck routes. Visit at different times of day, including a weekday morning. What you hear on a Sunday afternoon is not the full picture.
- Zoning next door. A vacant lot or older building nearby could be redeveloped. The City of Vaughan’s planning pages list active applications in the area.
- Warnings in the paperwork. Ask whether the purchase agreement, condo documents or title mention noise or vibration, and have your lawyer explain anything you find before you firm up.
For sellers, the answer is to be open. In my experience, buyers who learn about a rail line or truck route from the listing are calmer than buyers who discover it on their own after an offer.
What are Vaughan home prices heading into 2027?
These are Vaughan-wide numbers, not Concord prices. They show the trend for each home type. Your building, floor, lot and updates will move your own number.
| Vaughan home type | Median sold price, Jan–Oct 2026 | Change vs 2025 | Change vs 2024 | Sales change vs 2025 | Average days on market, 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | $1,415,000 | −5.0% | −11.0% | +2.1% | 30 |
| Semi-detached | $1,040,000 | −9.2% | −11.5% | −8.1% | 28 |
| Freehold townhouse | $1,014,500 | −9.3% | −12.9% | −1.4% | 29 |
| Condo townhouse | $768,000 | −6.1% | −8.6% | −5.4% | 35 |
| Condo apartment | $530,000 | −10.9% | −16.5% | −1.6% | 42 |

Detached homes held up best in Vaughan, with the median down 5.0% from 2025 and sales slightly higher. Condo apartments fell the most, down 10.9% in a year and 16.5% over two years, and they took the longest to sell at 42 days on average. In October 2026, TRREB reported 57 Vaughan condo apartment sales at a median of $520,000, selling at 96% of list price on average. Vaughan had 4.8 months of inventory across all home types, and its MLS Home Price Index composite benchmark was 5.46% lower than a year earlier.

This model doesn’t know that your neighbour’s identical semi went $80,000 over asking last month, or which two upgrades actually pay back in your area. That conversation is free and takes twenty minutes.
Is a Concord GO station coming?
Not yet. The City of Vaughan’s Concord GO Centre Secondary Plan, in effect since 2012, plans for a complete community around a potential GO station on the east side of the rail line, north of Highway 7. The city is now updating that plan. Its page describes the station only as proposed and links to a Metrolinx initial business case, but it gives no construction or funding timeline.
Private plans are moving ahead nearby. The city lists a second submission in September 2026 for a master plan and zoning amendment at 1890 Highway 7. For a buyer, the honest message is this: a future station could help values near Highway 7, but nobody should pay today as if it were already built. For a seller, mention it as a plan, not a promise.
Which questions should you ask a Concord realtor?
RECO, Ontario’s real estate regulator, recommends interviewing at least three agents and asking about their experience in your neighbourhood and with your type of home. It also suggests asking how they will market the property and calling past clients they give as references. These questions help you compare agents in Concord:
- “Which TRREB community are my comparables from, and did you check nearby communities too?”
- “How will you present the rail line, truck traffic or industry near my home?”
- “For my condo, which recent sales in my building or nearby buildings are you using?”
- “What happens to the price and plan after two weeks with no offers?”
- “What is the total fee, what goes to the buyer’s brokerage, and what changes if you also represent the buyer?”
- “Can I speak with two recent clients?”
Check each agent on RECO’s public register, which shows registration status and enforcement history from the past five years. For the wider city view, see my guide to choosing a realtor in Vaughan.
How do commission and listing agreements work in Vaughan?
Commission in Ontario is negotiable. RECO says the amount is agreed between you and the brokerage and is not set or approved by RECO, the government or a real estate board. It can be a fixed amount, a percentage or both, but it cannot be based on the difference between the list price and the sale price.
The agreement must show your fee, any amount offered to the buyer’s brokerage, and how fees change if one brokerage represents both buyer and seller. You do not have to agree to that kind of multiple representation. The expiry date must appear clearly on the first page, and RECO says there is no standard length. Services must be written down, because there is no standard package.
RECO notes that most agreements include a holdover clause, which protects the brokerage, and there is no minimum or standard length. If a buyer who saw your Concord home during the listing buys it during the holdover period after the agreement ends, a fee can still be owed. Agree on a short, clear holdover before you sign, and read exactly when it applies.
What should Concord buyers check before making an offer?
Condo buyers: review the status certificate with your lawyer. It shows the reserve fund, any special assessments and legal issues in the building. My guide to the condo status certificate in Ontario explains what to look for.
House buyers: check the zoning and planned uses next door, as well as the home itself. A clause that lets your lawyer review zoning can protect you. See my notes on zoning conditions in Ontario offers.
Schools: schools listed for the broader area include Glen Shields Public School, Forest Run Public School and Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic School. Use the York Region District School Board’s locator with the exact address. The board says boundaries can change and that some new students in growing areas may have to attend another school for a time.
Financing: the Bank of Canada raised its policy rate to 2.50% on 28 October 2026, and prime rose to 4.70%. At Vaughan’s condo apartment median of $530,000, the minimum down payment is $28,000. At the detached median of $1,415,000, it is $116,500, because the price is under the $1.5 million limit for insured mortgages.
What are the red flags when choosing a Vaughan real estate agent?
- Comparable sales pulled from the wrong TRREB community, or a single Vaughan average used for a condo.
- No plan for questions about rail, industry or traffic.
- Talking up the GO station as if it were funded and built.
- A long agreement with a long holdover pushed at the first meeting.
- No record on RECO’s public register, or vague answers about past discipline.
In my view, Concord rewards sellers who are precise. The name covers a big, mixed area, so the right comparables and an honest account of what is nearby matter more here than almost anywhere in Vaughan. Condo owners in particular should price to today’s sales, because buyers have plenty of choice. This is my opinion, not a forecast, and the Bank of Canada has said further increases could be needed.
What to do next
- Get a first value range from the estimator above, then ask agents which TRREB community their comparables come from.
- List what is near your home, such as rail, industry or new projects, and decide how to present it.
- Check every agent on RECO’s public register and interview at least three.
- Read the fee, expiry, holdover and services sections before you sign.
- Buyers: review the status certificate or zoning, confirm schools and get a fresh pre-approval.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the best realtor in Concord, Vaughan?
The best realtor in Concord for 2027 is one who pulls comparable sales from the right TRREB community, explains how nearby rail and industry affect value, and puts every fee and service in writing. RECO recommends interviewing at least three agents, calling their past clients and checking its public register before you sign any agreement.
Where is Concord in Vaughan?
Concord is a district in the south of Vaughan, Ontario. In its broad historic sense it runs from Steeles Avenue to Rutherford Road and from Highway 400 to Dufferin Street, and includes Carrville east to Bathurst Street. TRREB uses a smaller Concord community and lists Glen Shields and Beverley Glen separately, so check which one a listing uses.
What is the average house price in Concord, Vaughan?
This guide uses Vaughan-wide figures rather than neighbourhood prices. Across Vaughan, the detached median was $1,415,000 from January to October 2026, down 5.0% from 2025, per TRREB MLS data via REALM. Freehold townhouses had a median of $1,014,500 and condo apartments $530,000. Concord homes can sell above or below these numbers.
Is there a GO station in Concord, Vaughan?
No, not as of November 2026. The City of Vaughan’s Concord GO Centre Secondary Plan plans for a potential GO station on the east side of the rail line north of Highway 7, and the city is updating that plan. The city describes the station as proposed and gives no construction or funding timeline, so treat it as a plan only.
Are condo prices dropping in Vaughan?
Yes. Vaughan’s condo apartment median was $530,000 from January to October 2026, down 10.9% from 2025 and 16.5% from 2024, per TRREB MLS data via REALM. Condos also took longer to sell, at 42 days on average. In October 2026, TRREB reported Vaughan condo apartments selling at 96% of list price on average.
How long does it take to sell a house in Vaughan?
Vaughan detached homes averaged 30 days on market from January to October 2026, up from 21 days in the same months of 2024, per TRREB MLS data via REALM. Condo apartments averaged 42 days. Vaughan had 4.8 months of inventory across all home types in October 2026, so most sellers should plan for several weeks of marketing.
Is realtor commission negotiable in Vaughan?
Yes. Commission in Vaughan, as in all of Ontario, is agreed between you and the brokerage. RECO says it is not set by RECO, government or real estate boards. It can be a flat fee, a percentage or both, but it cannot be tied to the gap between list price and sale price. Get the full fee in writing.
Do Vaughan home buyers pay Toronto land transfer tax?
No. Toronto’s municipal land transfer tax only applies to homes inside the City of Toronto. Buyers in Concord and the rest of Vaughan pay only Ontario’s land transfer tax. Qualifying first-time buyers can claim a provincial refund of up to $4,000, if they move in within nine months and apply within 18 months of registration.
What schools are in Concord, Vaughan?
Schools listed for the broad Concord area include Glen Shields Public School and Forest Run Public School with the York Region District School Board, and Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic School. The school for a specific home depends on its address. Use the board’s school locator, because the board says boundaries can change in growing areas.
