Oakville, ON, OCTOBER 7, 2025 – The September 2025 housing statistics for the Halton Region reveal while average prices edged lower overall, sales remained steady, and buyers continued to benefit from more balanced conditions across Oakville, Milton, Halton Hills, and Burlington.
Key Highlights in the Halton Region:
- Oakville: Detached home prices averaged $1.77 million, down nearly 15% from last year, with sales dipping 12% from August. Condo and townhouse prices fell to $853,921, marking a 6% year-over-year decline.
- Milton: Average Detached prices rose to $1.29 million, a 6.5% jump year-over-year, coupled with a 9.5% increase in year-over-year sales. Townhouse and condo prices averaged $773,249, down 12.4% annually.
- Halton Hills: Detached home prices averaged $1.37 million, up nearly 23% year-over-year, whereas condos saw less than 1% price growth during the same timeframe.
- Burlington: Detached average prices dropped 18% to $1.25 million, while townhouse and condo prices averaged $756,207, down 5.9% from a year ago.
“The Halton Region real estate market in September 2025 demonstrated a significant increase in year-over-year sales activity, particularly in the single-family home segment, even as prices continued to experience a general softening trend. Burlington saw the largest year-over-year increase with a +44.6% increase in the number of single family home sales. Single family homes in Halton Hills and Milton were also particularly strong market segments from a sales volume perspective.
A recent interest rate cut by the Bank of Canada, a gradual overall improvement in affordability, and high inventory levels are all drawing some buyers back into the market. The build-up of inventory has resulted in increased sales activity but continues to put downward pressure on prices, as buyers have more negotiating power,” says OMDREB President Ken Mazurek.
“The ongoing trade war with the United States also remains at the forefront, causing other prospective buyers to postpone their purchasing plans and refrain from making large financial commitments during a period of economic uncertainty. That said, we anticipate that more buyers will re-enter the market as affordability improves resulting in stronger sales activity on an annual basis,” continues Mazurek.
He adds, “Given the variety of market conditions that exist within specific cities and neighbourhoods in the Halton Region, prospective buyers and sellers should work with an OMDREB REALTOR® that is knowledgeable with these local market conditions.”
