September 2025 State of the Market Summary for Durham Region
 

September’s housing market in Durham Region presented a clear narrative of stabilizing buyer activity and mixed price trends. While year-over-year sales were strong in many areas, month-over-month data and growing inventory point to a market that favours patience and negotiation for buyers.

 

What’s Happening Across the Region

Sales Activity: Most municipalities saw healthy sales growth compared to September 2024, with Pickering and Ajax showing significant year-over-year gains. Month-over-month trends were more mixed, indicating a stabilizing pace.
 

Prices: The market continues to adjust from 2024 peaks, with most areas seeing lower average prices compared to last year. However, month-over-month, several markets like Ajax, Pickering, and Clarington posted modest gains, suggesting potential price stability.
 

Inventory: Active listings have increased substantially across the region compared to last September, providing buyers with significantly more choice and reducing the pressure of competition.
 

Market Type:

• Balanced Markets – Ajax, Clarington

• Buyer’s Markets – Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa, Uxbridge
   

City Highlights

Pickering: Led the region in year-over-year sales growth (+29.1%), though prices are down from 2024. A surge in new listings has firmly placed it in buyer's market territory.
 

Ajax: Showed positive monthly momentum with increases in both sales and price, demonstrating stable, balanced market conditions.

Whitby: Sales volume held steady, but prices softened month-over-month and year-over-year. A large influx of new listings has created a clear buyer's market.

Oshawa: Saw a dip in sales activity compared to both last month and last year, with prices continuing to adjust downward in a buyer's market.

Key Takeaway

For buyers, the market continues to offer more options and less pressure than last year, with the most negotiating power found in Pickering, Whitby, and Oshawa.
