Average Price for Condos in Brownridge

Condo prices in Brownridge tend to range from the 500’s to the 800’s with a few others sitting at a “luxury” price point. The lower level of this range means first time homebuyers and investors can get a handle on the GTA “housing ladder” in Brownridge, especially when it comes to new pre-construction condos. These condos are likely to appreciate in value in light of Canada’s aging population, shortage of housing and Thornhill’s brand value. If you are buying a new pre-construction condo for yourself, your family or as an investment property then Brownridge is worth consideration.
