The Burlington market continued to gain momentum in May, with activity increasing as we move deeper into the spring market.

Here’s what happened compared to April:

• Sales ↑ 6%
• Average Price ↑ 14%
• New Listings ↑ 5%
• Days on Market → holding steady at 32 days

The increase in both sales and new listings tells us that buyers and sellers are actively participating in the market. More inventory is giving buyers additional options, while strong buyer demand is helping support home prices.

Looking at the bigger picture year over year:

• Sales are nearly unchanged (-0.9%)
• Average Price is up 6%
• New Listings are down 20%
• Inventory is down 15%
• Days on Market are up 7%

What does this mean?

👉 For Buyers:
While there are more homes available than there were a month ago, we’re still seeing fewer listings compared to last year. Well-priced homes continue to attract attention, so being prepared and acting decisively when the right property comes along remains important.

👉 For Sellers:
With inventory still below last year’s levels and prices showing strong growth, conditions remain favourable for sellers. Buyers are active, but they’re also selective. Strategic pricing, strong presentation, and effective marketing continue to make all the difference.

Overall, Burlington’s market feels healthier and more balanced than it did earlier this year. We’re seeing steady activity, stable selling times, and continued confidence from both buyers and sellers.

If you’re thinking about making a move this year, let’s connect and talk about what these numbers mean for your specific situation. Whether you’re considering a move-up home, downsizing, or simply curious about your home’s value, I’d be happy to help.
