Niagara Real Estate Market Update – April 2025

Average Home Price:
In April 2025, the average home in the Niagara Region sold for $707,729, reflecting a modest 0.83% increase compared to the same time last year. Despite changes in the broader market, prices in Niagara are holding steady, giving sellers and homeowners a sense of stability heading into the summer.

Price Breakdown by Property Type:

• Detached Homes: $742,485 (up 0.38% year-over-year)

• Semi-Detached Homes: $589,849 (up 6.47% YOY)

• Townhouses: $666,761 (down 1.07% YOY)

• Condos: $520,296 (up a notable 23.61% YOY)
  

Sales and Inventory:
Sales activity slowed significantly, with just 512 homes sold in April — a 36% drop from last year. On the flip side, there’s more inventory available now, with 3,001 active listings — a 15.7% increase, giving buyers more choice.

Time on Market:
Homes are taking a bit longer to sell, now averaging 41 days on the market, which is up 20.6% from last April. This gives buyers more breathing room, but sellers need to be more strategic with pricing and presentation.

What This Means for You:

• Buyers: With more listings and slower sales, there’s less pressure and more opportunity, especially in the condo market, which saw the strongest price growth.

• Sellers: Homes aren’t moving as quickly, so making your property stand out with the right pricing and professional presentation is more important than ever.
  

FAQs:

• Average price in Niagara (April 2025): $707,729

• Are prices rising? Slightly — overall prices are up year-over-year, with condos seeing the biggest gains.

• How long are homes taking to sell? About 41 days on average — longer than last year.

• Is it a good time to buy? Yes, especially for condo buyers. There’s more inventory and prices have stabilized.

Spring is here, and you may be wanting to put your home on the market! To ensure you stand out from the crowd and attract the right buyers, here are some essential tips to get your home ready for a successful spring sale.

1. Boost Your Curb Appeal: First impressions matter. Buyers will form an opinion of your home the moment they pull up to the curb, so make sure the exterior is inviting. Here’s how:

• Freshen up the lawn: Mow the grass, trim the bushes, and remove any dead plants.

• Plant some flowers: Brighten up flower beds with spring blooms like tulips or daffodils.

• Clean the driveway and walkways: Power wash any dirt or grime off your driveway, walkways, and porch to make everything look crisp and clean.

• Paint the front door: A fresh coat of paint on the front door can give your home an instant facelift.
  

2. Declutter and Depersonalize: Buyers want to imagine themselves living in your space, which can be hard to do if your home is filled with personal items. Now is the perfect time to declutter and depersonalize:

• Clear out excess furniture: If a room feels crowded, remove any unnecessary pieces to create a more spacious feel.

• Pack away personal photos and memorabilia: This will help potential buyers visualize themselves in your home.

• Organize closets and storage spaces: Buyers love to see that a home has ample storage, so make sure these areas are neat and tidy.
  

3. Make Minor Repairs: Spring buyers are often looking for homes that are move-in ready. If there are any lingering repairs you’ve been putting off, now is the time to fix them. Consider:

• Touching up paint: Fresh paint on walls and trim can make a huge difference.

• Fixing leaky faucets or plumbing issues: Ensure all faucets work properly, and there are no signs of water damage.

• Repairing or replacing broken appliances: If your refrigerator or oven is on the fritz, now is the time to replace it.

• Check the roof and gutters: Ensure the roof is in good condition, and gutters are clean and functioning.
  

4. Deep Clean Your Home: A clean home is a welcoming home. Before listing your property, give it a thorough cleaning to ensure it shines for showings:

• Clean carpets and floors: If your carpets are looking worn, consider getting them professionally cleaned or replacing them with new flooring.

• Wipe down windows: Clean windows let in more natural light and create a bright, airy feel.

• Tidy up bathrooms and kitchens: Pay attention to detail in these high-traffic areas by scrubbing grout, polishing faucets, and cleaning appliances.
  

5. Stage Your Home for Success: Staging your home can help buyers envision how they could use the space, ultimately making your home more appealing. Here’s how to stage effectively:

• Create a welcoming entryway: A tidy, well-lit entry can set the tone for the rest of the house.

• Use neutral colours: Neutral colours make it easier for buyers to imagine their furniture and style in the space.

• Add inviting touches: Fresh flowers, a bowl of fruit, or a cozy throw can make your home feel warm and inviting.
  

6. Price It Right: Pricing your home correctly from the start is critical to attracting the right buyers. Overpricing can result in your home sitting on the market longer than necessary, while underpricing may leave money on the table.

• Research the market: Talk to a real estate agent who knows your area well. They can help you understand comparable home sales (comps) and determine the best price for your property.

• Consider the spring market: Spring buyers often have more flexibility with their budgets, so it’s important to find that sweet spot where the price reflects the market demand.

7. Professional Photos Are a Must: With most buyers starting their home search online, high-quality photos are essential. Don’t settle for amateur shots. Hire a professional photographer to capture your home in its best light. The better the photos, the more likely you’ll grab a buyer’s attention.

8. Be Flexible with Showings: The spring market tends to be busy, and you’ll want to accommodate as many potential buyers as possible. Being flexible with showings can increase the likelihood of receiving offers quickly.

• Offer weekend and evening showings: Many buyers may have busy work schedules, so giving them the flexibility to view your home outside of traditional business hours can be beneficial.

• Keep the home ready for showings: Make sure the house is tidy and ready to go at all times. A quick last-minute showing could be the one that results in an offer.
  

9. Highlight Outdoor Living Spaces: Spring is the perfect time to show off your outdoor areas. Whether it’s a spacious backyard, patio, or balcony, outdoor spaces are more appealing when the weather is nice.

• Spruce up the garden: Planting fresh flowers or adding a few potted plants can create a beautiful outdoor space.

• Furnish the patio: If you have a patio, set it up with outdoor furniture to show its potential for relaxing and entertaining.

10. Work with a Local Real Estate Agent: A seasoned real estate agent who knows your local market can be one of your best assets. They’ll guide you through the process, offer market insights, and help you price your home correctly. Having a professional on your team can make the selling process much smoother and more successful.

Final Thoughts: Spring is an exciting time to sell your home, but getting it ready for the market requires a bit of work. By following these tips, you’ll position your home to attract more buyers and secure a successful sale. Whether it's through improving curb appeal, staging, or making necessary repairs, each step will help ensure you put your best foot forward this spring. Happy selling!

How my client bought her first home for under 400K - Read below for their success story. 

One of my favourite parts of my job is helping first-time buyers enter the market. I met my client last year at a rental property. She was initially thinking about renting, but after our first meeting, she mentioned that her goal was to buy rather than rent. She had great savings and had just landed a new job in the Region, making her a perfect candidate to get into the real estate market. I told her that the first step before making any decisions was to explore all her options. I connected her with mortgage brokers, and she ended up choosing a mortgage agent who came highly recommended by her friends and family. She did a fantastic job submitting all the necessary paperwork.

Once her pre-approval was in place, we started looking at properties within her budget. I meet so many people who believe it’s impossible to purchase a home under $400k, but the truth is, with patience, an open mind, and the right agent, nothing is impossible. She was starting to feel discouraged as we saw more properties, but I recommended expanding her search to other areas she hadn’t originally considered - this meant looking in St. Catharines. This opened up more options and helped her find something that ticked almost all of her boxes.

The moment we walked into what is now her home, we knew it was the best fit for her. I had worked with the listing agent on past transactions, which helped establish a great rapport—this is why it’s so important to work with local agents who have strong connections throughout the Region. She received an accepted offer for $397,000, we fulfilled all her conditions and the countdown to closing began. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I look forward to helping many more amazing first-time buyers like her. She will be my client and friend for years to come. Congrats, J! I’m so happy for you and your pup, Stevie.

The Niagara real estate market is experiencing notable changes, with a slight increase in average home prices, while sales activity has declined compared to the previous year. It's important for buyers, sellers, and investors to understand these trends to navigate the current housing market effectively.

Home Prices in Niagara See Small Increase:
In February 2025, the average sale price in Niagara rose to $680,181, a 2.05% increase from last year. This indicates that while demand has slowed down somewhat, home prices are still stable and showing gradual growth.

Sales Drop, But Homes Are Selling More Quickly:

• Homes Sold: In February, 381 homes were sold, representing a 46.26% decrease compared to the same time last year.

• Days on Market: The average time it took to sell a home was 48 days, which is 6.67% faster than the previous year.
  Despite fewer sales, the slight price increase and quicker selling times suggest that buyers are more selective, but desirable properties are moving off the market faster than before.

Lower Number of New and Active Listings:

• New Listings: 1,084 homes were listed in February, down by 25.50% from last year.

• Active Listings: 2,488 homes remained on the market, a 4.31% decrease.
  With fewer homes being listed, the market remains competitive, and buyers have fewer options to choose from.

Price Trends by Property Type:

• Detached Homes: The average price of detached homes was $706,054, reflecting a 2.68% increase from last year. This shows that single-family homes continue to be in high demand.

• Semi-Detached Homes: The average price dropped to $575,805, a 5.37% decrease from last year. This may be due to buyers focusing more on fully detached homes or affordable condos.

• Townhouses: The average price of townhouses was $704,171, a slight 0.53% decrease, suggesting that townhouses remain a solid option for families and first-time buyers.

• Condos: Condos saw the largest price decrease, with the average price dropping to $431,464, down 6.04% from last year. This shift may present opportunities for buyers seeking more affordable homeownership or investment properties.

Things to Consider as a Buyer:
-  You have more leverage to negotiate due to fewer sales.
- With fewer new listings, there are fewer homes to choose from.
-  Homes are selling faster, so if you find a property you like, be prepared to act quickly.

Things to Consider as a Seller:
- Detached homes are holding steady or seeing price increases.
- It’s crucial to price your home competitively in this slower market.
-  Properties are selling faster than last year, indicating strong buyer interest in well-priced homes.

These are the 4 steps it took to get the home sold for full asking price, under all my clients terms in only 2 short weeks!

Initial Meeting: 

1. I met my clients in September of 2024. They knew they wanted to list in February so we got all exterior photos and videos completed. This was important because they have a pool and wanted to show the backyard in its best light. This ensured prospective buyers could truly envision themselves in their very own backyard oasis.

Price + Marketing Strategy: 

2. We established a price. We priced it to SELL. I see so many sellers stretching their listing price, which ultimately doesn’t look good - they then have to make many pricing corrections or the house just sits stale on the market. We also discussed a marketing strategy. We again highlighted the backyard, ran many social media posts and created buzz around the listing with a “coming soon” video. High quality images and drone shots were also very important. I created personalized feature sheets and the home was always presented beautifully. My clients did an amazing job at putting things in storage and making the home look its best.  I hosted 3 open houses the first 2 weeks of listing (1 was cancelled due to a snow storm). This generated roughly 30 buyers from the open houses alone - they were the busiest open houses I have ever hosted.

Showings + Home knowledge:

3. We accepted every showing and I knew the home inside and out. If there were any questions that needed to be clarified the sellers got back to me right away and I ALWAYS provided answers ASAP. I  had all documentation on hand incase potential buyers were curious on pool info, pool costs, hydro/gas bills etc. We worked as a TEAM!

Offers + Negotiation:

4. Offers flooded in. We received a total of 4 offers. My clients stayed firm with their terms. Price and closing date were extremely important & we stuck to that. My clients received full asking price with very little conditions. I am so thankful they trusted me to get their home SOLD. It is a home that will truly be missed. I look forward to now helping them find a new home to make memories in. 

If you are looking for results like this, please reach out. It is never too early to start preparing a home to sell or simply getting the conversation started. I look forward to hearing from you!!

The Shelter Foundation has raised more than $46 million to-date and currently supports 200 local women’s shelters and national partners. Our agents donate a portion of their commissions, and Royal LePage offices across Canada host local fundraising events. Our brokers, agents and staff also volunteer and provide in-kind goods to benefit the women and children residing in their local shelters. Every dollar raised goes directly to helping the more than 50,000 women and children who are served each year by the shelters and support programs we fund.
