Read live from the listing board and refreshed through the day.

What a home actually sells for is a different number, and the one that matters if you are selling.

What Pickering is actually like

Pickering is the gateway to Durham Region: waterfront on one side, the Seaton lands and Rouge park on the other, and a downtown built around the GO station and the Town Centre. It is where a lot of buyers head when the 401 corridor east starts to look like better value than going north.
