Best for...
Best for Resale Liquidity: West
West has the deepest current market surveyed -- 103 active listings and 24 closed sales in the trailing 3 months -- meaning less risk of an illiquid resale.
Best for: Investors who want an exit option -- a deep resale market when it is time to sell.
Best for Demand Momentum: Old Oakville
Old Oakville is absorbing new listings fastest of any neighbourhood surveyed -- a 100% sales-to-new-listings ratio, a sign of demand outrunning current supply.
Best for: Buyers who want to move before rising demand pushes prices further.
Best for a Fast-Moving Market: Westmount
Westmount has the tightest inventory surveyed -- 2.1 months of supply at the current sales pace, a seller's-market pace even at a $1,595,000 median list price.
Best for: Buyers ready to act quickly and decisively in a seller's market.
Best for Buyer Negotiating Leverage: Southwest
Southwest carries the loosest inventory surveyed -- 24.0 months of supply -- meaningfully more choice for a buyer than current sales pace is absorbing.
Best for: Buyers who want room to negotiate and more listings to compare before committing.
Best for a Premium, Patient Hold: Morrison
Morrison carries the highest median list price surveyed, $4,098,000, with a longer average time on market (53 days) -- a patient, premium submarket rather than a quick turnover.
Best for: Long-term holders comfortable paying a premium for a slower-moving, higher-end submarket.
Best for Cash Flow: Glen Abbey
Glen Abbey has the highest gross rent yield surveyed -- 3.7% (median asking rent against median list price, before carrying costs).
Best for: Investors prioritizing rental income over price appreciation.

Market velocity
With 5.4 months of inventory as of October 5, 2026, Oakville's detached home market was a balanced market. Supply and demand are reasonably matched, so buyers have room to negotiate and well-priced detached homes still sell in good time.
What this means for buyers and sellers
For buyers
At 5.4 months of inventory (as of October 5, 2026), Oakville is fairly balanced — there's room to negotiate on price or conditions without losing every listing to a bidding war. Homes are selling for about 95% of asking on average, which leaves room to negotiate off the list price on most listings. Recent sales took a median of about 33 days to close, so that's roughly how long a realistically priced unit tends to stay available once it hits the market.
For sellers
At 5.4 months of inventory, pricing accurately from day one matters more than usual — overpriced listings tend to sit while realistically priced ones still move well. Median sold prices are down 5.4% year over year, so recent comparable sales matter more than last year’s numbers when you set your price.

About the Oakville market
Oakville is one of the GTA’s most affluent lakeside towns, with top-ranked schools and an easy commute to both Toronto and Hamilton. Detached homes span historic south-Oakville streets near the lake to large executive builds in Joshua Creek and the north end. Detached homes sit at the top of the Oakville housing ladder — the most space, land, and privacy, and typically the highest prices.
Buyers are largely families and move-up owners prioritizing size, yards, and school catchments. The breakdown above covers detached homes by bedroom count; semi-detached houses are available through the property-type filter.
Methodology
Figures on this page are compiled from TRREB/PropTx MLS® data via the site’s IDX (active listings) and VOW (closed sales) data feeds for Oakville, refreshed on every data sync.
- Median is the middle value in a sorted list of prices — half of transactions are above it, half below. It is used instead of an average because a single very high or very low sale can’t skew it.
- $/sqft is the sold or asking price divided by the unit’s square footage, as reported on the listing.
- Days on Market (DOM) is the number of days between a listing going live and it selling (or, for active listings, the number of days it has been live so far).
- Sale-to-List Ratio is the sold price as a percentage of the final asking price. Above 100% means the home sold over asking.
- Months of Inventory is how long the current active listings would take to sell through at the recent sales pace.
- Sample-size policy: sold-price figures are only published once at least 3 sold sales support them, to avoid identifying any single transaction. A figure based on fewer than 10 sales is labeled as a small sample.
