Brampton vs Mississauga Home Prices: What Actually Sold This Summer (Fall 2026 Data)

In short: over the 90 days ending September 18, 2026, the median Brampton home closed at $845,000 and the median Mississauga home at $895,000. Both cities sold at roughly 97% of asking, both took about three weeks to sell, and both are down a few percent from the same window last year. The $50,000 headline gap is misleading, though: the gap on a detached house is closer to $290,000, and on a condo apartment Brampton is cheaper by about $57,000. Here is the type-by-type breakdown.

All figures below are closed sales reported to TRREB (not asking prices, not listings), pulled from the same live feed that powers our Brampton market report and Mississauga market report. Window: June 20 to September 18, 2026. Year-over-year compares the same 90-day window in 2025. Home-type medians come from the most recent 600 closings in each city, so treat the small categories (link homes, condo townhouses in Brampton) as directional.

The headline numbers, side by side

Two things stand out. First, the average is well above the median in Mississauga (a $95,000 spread versus $41,500 in Brampton), which tells you Mississauga's top end (Lorne Park, Mineola, the lakefront) is pulling the average up while the typical sale is much closer to $900,000. If a listing agent quotes you an "average price" for Mississauga, ask for the median. Second, both cities are essentially negotiation markets right now: four out of five homes sold below asking, and the typical discount was about 3%.

Median sold price by home type

Sale counts are from the most recent 600 closings sampled in each city, not the full 90-day total.

What the mix tells you

Brampton's market is a freehold market: roughly six in ten recent closings were detached homes, and detached plus semis plus freehold towns make up close to 90% of sales. Mississauga is far more mixed, with condo apartments and condo townhouses accounting for close to 40% of closings. That is why Mississauga's overall median ($895,000) sits so far below its detached median ($1.25M): a large share of cheaper condo sales pulls the city-wide number down.

The practical consequence: if you are shopping for a detached house, the two cities are not $50,000 apart, they are $290,000 apart. If you are shopping for a condo, they are close enough that the building, the maintenance fee and the commute should decide it, not the city.

What this means if you are buying

Offer below asking, with evidence

A 97% sold-to-list median means the typical seller in both cities is accepting about 3% under their list price. On a $960,000 Brampton detached listing that is roughly $29,000; on a $1.25M Mississauga detached, about $37,000. That is the starting point, not the ceiling. Homes that have sat past the 21 to 23 day median are where the real leverage is; a listing at 40+ days on market has already missed the buyers who were waiting for it, and its seller knows it.

The exception is the one in five homes that sold at or over asking. In Brampton that share (21.3%) is meaningfully higher than Mississauga's (17.7%), and the listings that draw multiple offers tend to be sharply priced detached homes, often with a legal basement apartment. If a listing is priced under the type median and has been on the market three days, do not expect a discount.

Budget for the tax gap too

The Ontario land transfer tax on the median Brampton sale ($845,000) is $13,375; on the median Mississauga sale ($895,000) it is $14,375. Neither city charges a municipal land transfer tax (that is Toronto only). First-time buyers get up to $4,000 of that back. Our closing-cost guide walks through the rest.

Do not let the year-over-year number scare you or tempt you

Brampton's median is down 1.7% and Mississauga's 3.2% versus the same window in 2025. That is a soft market, not a falling one, and the median days on market is unchanged year over year in both cities (21 vs 22 in Brampton, 23 vs 23 in Mississauga). Homes are still selling in three weeks. Buyers waiting for a crash are competing with buyers who read the same headline and decided to negotiate instead.

What this means if you are selling

Price to the sold median for your home type, not to what your neighbour listed for. A Brampton semi listed at $850,000 when the median closed semi is $788,500 will sit, get a price reduction, and end up selling for less than it would have with an honest price on day one, because the sold-to-list ratio is measured against the final list price and the days-on-market clock is visible to every buyer's agent.

The 3% gap between list and sold is also why we tell sellers to think in net terms. If you need $900,000 in hand, pricing at $900,000 and hoping is not a strategy in a 97% market. Our cost-of-selling guide shows what a $1M GTA sale actually nets after commission, HST, legal and the rest.

Brampton or Mississauga? Same question, sharper answer

We wrote a full Brampton vs Mississauga comparison earlier this year covering commutes, schools and neighbourhoods. With the summer sold data in, the money side comes down to this:

• Detached under $1M: Brampton. The Brampton detached median is $960,000; the Mississauga detached median is $1.25M, so a sub-$1M Mississauga detached is, by definition, well below the typical sale and usually needs work or compromise on location.
• Semi or freehold town around $800,000: Brampton buys you a semi ($788,500 median) or a freehold town ($761,500 median). The same money in Mississauga buys a condo townhouse ($677,000 median) with a maintenance fee, or a smaller semi in Malton.
• Condo apartment: Almost a wash. $423,000 versus $480,000, and Mississauga has five times the selection (125 sales vs 26).
• Investor looking at cashflow: Neither works at 2026 rates without a legal second unit. The $290,000 detached gap matters a lot more than any rent gap between the two cities, which tilts the math toward Brampton for a sub-$1.1M budget.
