Real Estate Market Update

Residential home sales activity recorded through the MLS® for the Niagara Association of REALTORS® (NAR) totaled 500 units in September 2025, compared to 541 in August 2025. In September, the Niagara Association of REALTORS® listed 1,738 residential properties compared to 1,415 in August 2025. The average days it took to sell a home in September 2025 was 47 days, a -2.1% decrease from August 2025. While we did see the typical surge in fall listings, buyers responded with continued caution. Even a recent interest rate reduction wasn’t enough to overcome the ongoing economic uncertainty and affordability concerns weighing on consumer sentiment. REALTORS® continue to identify this as an undervalued opportunity—motivated sellers, elevated inventory, and softening prices present highly favourable conditions for buyers ready to act before year-end. For sellers, pricing ahead of the market is now critical—not just to align with current value, but to anticipate continued downward pressure as we move into the winter months. 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 $595,800 in September 2025. This was a -2.3% decrease from August 2025.

Easy Fall Simmer Pot That Smells Delicious

I absolutely love Fall. Sweater weather and carved pumpkins are right up my alley. Autumn is also the perfect time to make a simmering potpourri pot.

Simmer Pot Ingredients:

  • whole apple

  • whole orange

  • whole lemon

  • cinnamon sticks – use full cinnamon sticks or ground 

  • nutmeg and ginger – ground or fresh both work great – use what you have

Instructions to make this recipe:

First, slice up the fruit into quarter-inch thick slices. Leave those peels on! They will add to the aroma. What smells more delightful than orange peels? Mmmmmm.

Next, transfer the citrus and apple slices into a large pot and then sprinkle it with the ground nutmeg and ginger. Toss in the cinnamon sticks and fill the pot with water and give it a good stir.

Third, set the pot over medium-high heat and bring it to a low boil.

Once it is bubbling, turn the heat down to a simmer and let it stew away. 

With a warm, cozy aroma a stovetop potpourri pot will make your whole home smell like this beautiful season.

You could use candles, room sprays, or air fresheners with Fall scents to make your house smell lovely but some of these things can also have toxic ingredients that I prefer to avoid.

simmer pot for fall on the stove top is a brilliant and safe method – no chemicals!  

FAQ’S, Tips + Substitutions:

  • How long do you boil a simmer pot? A minimum of 2-3 hours is recommended to really notice the aroma in your house but you can let it brew all day! Just keep adding water as necessary as it will boil down and you don’t want it to burn.

  • Turn it into a gift by making a basket with the fruit, a knob of ginger, whole clovescardamom pods, and cinnamon sticks. Add a pretty card with instructions.

  • Substitute any citrus fruit! Both limes and grapefruit are lovely.

  • Vary the herbs you use! Fresh rosemary sprigs go beautifully with lemon, vanilla extract, and lavender. 

• Use a tsp of your fave pumpkin spice blend to make it easy peasy
