Housing in Agincourt North, Toronto

Agincourt North is the clearest example on this list of a neighbourhood built in one go: more than half of it went up between 1961 and 1980, almost nothing before, and it has the highest share of owner-occupied households and the largest households here. Stock of that age is at the point where the big-ticket items, roof, furnace, windows, service panel, are all due at once, which is what an inspection should be aimed at.

When it was built

The most useful line on this page. Almost everything a home inspection turns up in Toronto is a function of the decade the house went up in, and so is most of what an insurer asks about.

What to check before you buy in Agincourt North

Raised by the housing stock above, not by any particular house. Each one is a question to ask rather than a problem to expect.

  • Aluminum branch wiringMuch of this neighbourhood went up between 1961 and 1980, and aluminum branch wiring was common in houses built in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is not a reason to walk away, but it is a reason to have an electrician look, because insurers ask about it by name.
  • Kitec fittings, if it was plumbed in the late 1990s or 2000sA fifth or more of the housing here dates from the years when Kitec plumbing was installed. The fittings are usually brass in orange or blue pipe, most visible under a sink or at the water heater. It was the subject of a class action settlement and it is something a condominium corporation will know about its own building.
  • What was added, and whether it was permittedIn a neighbourhood this detached, a large share of the houses have been added to or finished below grade at some point. The City's building records will say what was permitted. An unpermitted addition is not automatically a problem to walk away from, but it is a problem to know about rather than inherit.
  • The party wall and the drainsA fifth or more of the housing here shares a wall with the house next door. Shared walls mean shared sound, sometimes shared drains, and occasionally a shared roof line where one side has been redone and the other has not. Look at both sides of the building from the street and from the lane.

Where these numbers come from

2021 Census of Population, Statistics Canada, tabulated by the City of Toronto Open Data as Neighbourhood Profiles, with neighbourhood names and boundaries from Neighbourhoods. Retrieved September 18, 2026. The City publishes both packages with their licence recorded as "License not specified".

These are aggregate figures for a whole neighbourhood from a census taken in 2021, so they lag the market and they describe no individual home. Housey is not a real estate board and this is not MLS data: for what a specific house is worth today, ask a realtor.
