What I’ve Been Up To

It’s been an exciting month. I had the opportunity to participate in some memorable community events!

Jordan Historical Museum Event: The Lincoln Museum celebrated their museum family of volunteers, members, and donors with a special party for Samuel Fry’s 213th birthday. It was a wonderful evening getting a better look at the exhibits, family Fry house and Jordan schoolhouse. The highlights of the night were seeing “the vault”, this is where all the donations and exhibit artifacts are properly stored and collected as well as ending the night with calligraphy practice with the lovely Courtney. 

The Shaw Festival Experience: Welcome to the world-class theatre, the Shaw Festival, located in Niagara-on-the-Lake. I have never been so when I was invited to the opening act of “Anything Goes”, I was both ecstatic and honoured and it was truly a night to remember. Many Niagara residents have never experienced the beauty of what's in their very own neighbourhood and the goal is to change that. I decided to bring my mom as my date and we had a spectacular evening. 

The Grand Canal Expo: I attended my very first Expo - The Grand Canal Health and Wellness EXPO. From wellness experts to local organizations, it was an unforgettable day. I met new friends, learned a lot and chatted all things real estate. Looking forward to many more opportunities like this one.  Here is to building a healthier, stronger community - together!

Market Update - May 2025

Residential home sales activity recorded through the MLS® for the Niagara Association of REALTORS® (NAR) totalled 602 units in May 2025, compared to 553 in April 2025. In May, the Niagara Association of REALTORS® listed 1907 residential properties compared to 1575 in April 2025. The average days it took to sell a home in May 2025 was 38 days, a 7.3% decrease from April 2025. "May’s numbers reflect a market that is gradually regaining momentum. Buyers are adjusting to current interest rates, and the increase in new listings is giving them more options to consider. With a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 31.5%, Niagara remains in overall buyer’s market territory, making strategic pricing more critical than ever for sellers. The slight drop in average days on market is a positive sign that many sellers are paying attention to price and successfully motivating buyers off the fence. As always, market conditions vary by community and property type, so consulting a REALTOR® who understands the local dynamics is key to navigating today’s real estate landscape. 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 $628,300 in May 2025. This was a 2.2% increase from April 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.
