This week’s standout isn’t the slight dip in appointments—it’s the surge of new inventory. New listings jumped 14.7% in just one week, while sales rose 7.9%, bringing more fresh choice to the market while transactions also gained momentum. But buyer attention isn’t landing in the same place everywhere: Hamilton’s #1 price range shifted to $500K–$599K, Halton moved to $900K–$999K, while Haldimand held at $700K–$799K and Niagara remained at $500K–$599K. Heading toward September, the bigger story may be less about whether buyers return and more about where that demand concentrates as new inventory arrives—and which price points emerge as the early fall sweet spots.
