Average condo insurance cost by Ontario city (2026 ranges)

  • Toronto: $32–$75/mo (older midtown buildings at the top)
  • Mississauga: $28–$52/mo
  • Oakville: $30–$55/mo
  • Burlington: $32–$60/mo
  • Milton: $26–$48/mo

These are typical ranges I see with clients, not guarantees — your postal code, claims history and building all change the number.

5 things that push your condo premium above average

  1. Building age and water-claim history — the #1 driver in Ontario.
  2. High loss-assessment limit — needed if your building's deductible is large.
  3. Low personal deductible ($500 vs $2,500).
  4. Prior claims in the last 5 years.
  5. Upgraded finishes (improvements & betterments coverage).

How to pay below average (without getting burned)

  • Read your status certificate and match loss assessment to the master water deductible.
  • Pick a $2,500 deductible — often saves $6–$10/month.
  • Quote online direct — Square One lets you adjust each coverage and see the price change live.
  • Bundle if you also need tenant or home insurance on another property.
