Families looking for large, reasonably-priced detached homes for sale in Mississauga in a good school district.

A relative newbie neighbourhood in Mississauga, East Credit doesn’t have a long history as a residential community like neighbouring Streetsville but what it does have is a serious value proposition, particularly for young families looking for room to grow.

Located in the north central area of Mississauga with easy access to both Highways 401 and 403, East Credit has a more typical suburban feel than some of the older areas of Mississauga. Most of the homes here were built in the last 25 years and are large, brick family-sized homes, many with 4 or 5 bedrooms, a decent-sized backyard and a long driveway + garage all for under $1M. In other words, all the things you can’t find in Toronto homes for sale or even in trendier Mississauga neighbourhoods.

What East Credit lacks in edginess it makes up for in real estate value. When residents crave a little more “quaint”, nearby Streetsville which boasts a charming, central shopping area is just a short drive away.
