Halton Region Real Estate Market Trends: 2024 vs. 2025

In the Halton Region, the real estate market faced a mix of challenges and opportunities in 2025, reflecting the ongoing economic landscape.

Affordability Overshadowed by Lack of Consumer Confidence

Despite improvements in affordability, the Halton Region's real estate market was heavily influenced by a lack of consumer confidence surrounding the ongoing trade and tariff war with the United States. This uncertainty weighed heavily on buyers, leading to an overall decrease in sales volume and prices across the region on a year-over-year basis.

Inventory Levels on the Rise

The decline in sales volume and prices coincided with an increase in the number of new and active listings in the Halton Region. This rise in inventory levels provided more options for buyers, but also contributed to the downward pressure on prices.

Glimmers of Hope in the Market

While the overall market trends were negative, there were a few bright spots in the May 2025 sales data. Sales volume across the region increased by 20% on a month-over-month basis, indicating a potential shift in buyer sentiment.

The Oakville townhouse and condo market segment, in particular, showed strength, with both average sale price and sales volume increasing on a month-over-month and year-over-year basis. Additionally, single-family homes in Burlington saw an increase in sales volume on a month-over-month and year-over-year basis.

Looking Ahead

The Halton Region's real estate market in 2025 was shaped by a complex interplay of economic factors, including the ongoing trade and tariff war with the United States. While the overall trend was towards lower sales volume and prices, the regional market demonstrated pockets of resilience, particularly in the townhouse and condo segments, as well as in certain geographic areas like Burlington.

As the Halton Region moves forward, it will be crucial to monitor the evolving economic landscape and consumer sentiment, as these factors will continue to shape the trajectory of the local real estate market.
