Quite a lot — around 580 listings, nearly half the market, sit under $600,000 as of mid-2026, with a median list price near $449,000.

Newer or larger detached homes in the sought-after west end tend to push above the cap, but there's real selection below it across most of the city and county.
Yes, though it depends on age and area. Older detached homes and bungalows in established neighbourhoods regularly sell under $600,000.

Yes. A pre-approval tells you the real number the bank will lend and locks a rate hold, which matters most right at a budget ceiling like this. Keep in mind lenders qualify you at a rate roughly 2% above the one you'll actually pay, so your comfortable price can sit below your approved maximum. It's worth doing before you fall for a specific home.
