Weekly Real Estate Market Snapshot: Oakville, Burlington & Milton – July 11, 2025

It’s been a steady, watchful week in the Halton real estate market. Here’s what’s been happening in Oakville, Burlington, and Milton:

Oakville
Oakville saw 179 new listings in the past 7 days. Meanwhile, 49 homes sold firm and another 49 sold conditionally. With nearly 500 active listings, buyers are gaining leverage. The market is moving, but not quickly—motivated sellers are having to price strategically and adjust based on feedback and competing listings. Well-priced homes still sell, but the margin for error is narrowing.

Burlington
In Burlington, 125 new listings hit the market and 60 sold firm, with 49 more conditionally sold. While inventory is rising, homes under $1M—particularly freehold townhomes and smaller detached properties—are seeing consistent activity. Buyers are active, but selective. Sellers who are holding too high on price are being left behind.

Milton
Milton continues to punch above its weight. With 110 new listings, 48 firm sales, and 40 conditional sales, turnover remains healthy. Active inventory is just over 300 listings, so the absorption rate here is stronger than in the other two markets. Properties between $600K and $900K are seeing the most action, especially for first-time buyers and investors.

What Does This Mean Going Forward?
The overall market across all three cities is shifting into more balanced conditions. Buyers are being cautious and taking their time. If you're thinking of selling, your home needs to be priced right, marketed well, and show its best from day one. If you’re buying, there’s more choice now, but that may not last if interest rates drop later this year.
