July 2025 State of the Market Summary for Durham Region

July’s housing market across Durham Region showed a mix of balanced conditions, buyer-friendly pockets, and a few areas holding steady. While sales in some cities picked up compared to last month, prices in many areas saw a slight dip, giving buyers more negotiating power.

 

What’s Happening Across the Region

• Sales Activity: Most areas saw steady or modestly higher sales compared to last year, with Clarington and Oshawa posting the biggest gains.

• Prices: Several cities experienced small price drops from June, suggesting short-term adjustments. Clarington and Whitby were exceptions, posting price gains.

• Inventory: Active listings remain higher than last summer, giving buyers more choice and reducing the urgency to compete aggressively.

• Market Type:

  • Balanced Markets – Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Clarington

  • Buyer’s Markets – Oshawa, Uxbridge

City Highlights

• Pickering: Sales up from last year, prices slightly lower than June. More homes on the market than in 2024.

• Ajax: Prices down from both last month and last year; balanced but leaning toward buyers.

• Whitby: Prices rebounded from June; sales dipped from last month but still up year-over-year.

• Oshawa: Strong monthly sales jump but prices lower; remains a buyer’s market.

• Clarington: Biggest sales growth in the region; prices climbing again after a dip in June.
