Semi-detached homes share one interior wall with a neighbour but are otherwise freehold — you own the lot, you own the structure, and you have no condo fees. In Toronto proper, semis are often century-old brick Victorians on deep narrow lots, while 905 semis tend to be newer construction on smaller builder lots.
Prices for Toronto semis typically start around $950K for smaller units and stretch well above $1.5M for renovated properties in prime neighbourhoods like Leslieville, Roncesvalles, and Little Italy. In the 905, semi-detached homes in Brampton and Mississauga can often be found in the $800K-$1.1M range.
Semis are a smart compromise for buyers who want freehold ownership and a yard but need to be in the city centre.

Pricing varies significantly by city. Toronto and Oakville tend to be the most expensive markets; Hamilton, Oshawa, and Brampton typically offer the most affordable entry points for this housing type.
That depends on your investment goals, timeline, and cash flow requirements. Generally, freehold homes appreciate faster over long horizons while condos offer better cash flow — but individual neighbourhoods and buildings matter more than the category.
