How we call the market

Inventory is low at 1.8 months of inventory, but only 15 sold in the last three months, too few to call a seller's market, so this is currently a balanced market. From August to October 2026, 15 detached homes sold, 5 sellers took their home off the market without relisting and 5 came back at a lower price — a 75% sell-through. Over August to October 2026, homes sold for a median 97.5% of their first asking price, and the median sold price per square foot was down 8.2% from the same months a year earlier.

What we measure, over the last three full months

  • Months of inventory: homes for sale today, divided by the average number sold per month. Fewer months means less choice for buyers.
  • Sell-through: of the sellers whose listing ended, the share who actually sold. A seller who takes their home off the market and doesn’t list it again within 60 days counts as not selling. A home that comes off and goes back on (often a day later, at a lower price) counts as a price cut, not a seller giving up.
  • Sold vs. first asking price: what homes sold for, compared with the price they were first listed at. We follow a home back through any relists, because a relist starts a new MLS® listing and hides the earlier, higher price.
  • Sales to new listings: homes sold for every 100 that came on the market. TRREB publishes this as its SNLR. Under 40% favours buyers and over 60% favours sellers.
  • Price trend: the median sold price per square foot, compared with the same three months a year earlier.

How the call is made

  • Seller’s market: under 3 months of inventory, at least 70% sell-through, and homes selling for 98% or more of their first asking price, or prices up from a year ago while homes sell for at least 96% of it. We also need at least 20 sales in the three months, because a handful of sales can swing the numbers.
  • Buyer’s market: over 6 months of inventory, or under 50% sell-through (more sellers giving up than selling).
  • Balanced market: everything in between, including low inventory where sellers are cutting prices, relisting or pulling their homes. We say it leans toward buyers when fewer than 40% of new listings sold or inventory is 5 months or more, and toward sellers when more than 60% sold.

Based on MLS® listings from TRREB. Area totals only. We don’t show a call when fewer than 10 homes sold in those three months. Relists are matched by address, so a home relisted under a differently written address counts as taken off the market. Private sales and listings not on MLS® aren’t included. This is a general guide to the area, not an appraisal or advice about a specific home.

Based on properties for sale & sold — rentals not included. Figures are a monthly rollup covering November 1–4, 2026 (month to date), refreshed with each MLS® sync — shown as of November 4, 2026.

What is it like to live in Headon?

Headon is quiet and green, with wooded trails and parks between the streets. Shopping is along Upper Middle Road, Walkers Line and in nearby Uptown, and the Tansley Woods Community Centre is close. Highway 407 and the QEW are both within a few minutes, and Appleby GO and Burlington GO are a short drive. Schools come under the Halton District School Board and the Halton Catholic District School Board; confirm the school for any address.

What should buyers check in a Headon townhouse complex?

Most complexes are now thirty-plus years old, so ask for the reserve fund study and see how the corporation has handled roofs, windows, siding and paving. Check the status certificate for special assessments, and compare fees on what they cover. For a house, check the roof, furnace and air conditioner ages and any past basement water.
