Residential home sales activity recorded through the MLS® for the Niagara Association of REALTORS® (NAR) totaled 615 units in June 2026, compared to 585 in June 2025. In June, the Niagara Association of REALTORS® listed 1,591 residential properties compared to 1,724 in June 2025. The average days it took to sell a home in June 2026 was 45 days, a 2.3% increase from June 2025.
“We are seeing a very encouraging and steady upward build in activity as we progress through 2026,” said Johnny MacDonald, Chair of the Niagara Association of REALTORS®. “Month-over-month, our number of sales grew by a solid 6.4% from May, and new inventory has continued to flow smoothly into the market, ticking up by 0.9%. This consistent growth demonstrates that buyers are finding their footing and taking advantage of the options available to them. Our regional sales-to-listings ratio has improved to approximately 38.7% this month—up from 36% in May—showing that while Niagara remains an excellent environment for buyers, the market is steadily finding a healthy, active rhythm as the year unfolds.”
Johnny also noted how macroeconomic factors are helping inject predictability into local real estate decisions: “The Bank of Canada’s announcement on June 10th to hold the target for the overnight rate steady confirmed a welcome sense of continuity to the financial landscape. With interest rates remaining stable, both buyers and sellers can make plans with much higher confidence. Because real estate dynamics vary across different towns and neighborhoods, working with a local Niagara REALTOR® remains the best way to leverage these current trends to your advantage.”
The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) tracks price trends far more accurately than is possible using average or median price measures. The overall MLS® HPI composite benchmark price for the Niagara Region was $571,300 in June 2026. This was a 6.5% decrease from June 2025.
The characteristics of the HPI composite benchmark is a home between the ages of 51 to 99 with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A full list can be found in the accompanying chart.
