How we call the market

With 3.5 months of inventory at the recent three-month sales pace, this is currently a balanced market that leans toward buyers. Only 37 homes sold for every 100 new listings over the last three months, which tips it toward buyers. From August to October 2026, 19 detached homes sold, 12 sellers took their home off the market without relisting and 17 came back at a lower price — a 61% sell-through. Over August to October 2026, homes sold for a median 95.2% of their first asking price, and the median sold price per square foot was down 4.3% 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.

Oakville, ON — an established, family-oriented community beside Oakville's Uptown Core

What kind of real estate is for sale in River Oaks?

River Oaks was one of Oakville's big planned communities of the late 1980s and 1990s, and most of its streets are lined with two-storey detached houses from that period, many now updated inside. Unusually for Oakville, a large share of listings are attached homes: freehold townhouses on streets such as Lillykin Street, Melody Common and Gatwick Drive, stacked and condo townhouse complexes, and condo apartments in Oak Park. That mix makes River Oaks one of the more realistic ways into a well-established Oakville neighbourhood for first-time buyers. To shop by type, see Oakville homes for sale, Oakville townhouses for sale and Oakville condos for sale.

Which condos are in River Oaks?

Most River Oaks condos are in Oak Park, on the neighbourhood's north-east side near Trafalgar and Dundas. Tribute Communities built One Oak Park (2007) and The Courtyard (2010) on Central Park Drive, and Branthaven's The Taunton followed in 2019. The tallest is Cortel Group's Oak & Co on Oak Walk Drive, completed in 2020, and The Cosmopolitan on Oak Park Boulevard is a five-storey building from the same year. Older, smaller options include The Oaks at 2199 Sixth Line (1991) and Oak Place on Parkhaven Boulevard (1999).

Which townhouse complexes are in River Oaks?

Several complexes have their own pages with current listings. The Waterlilies on Post Road is a townhome community in Oak Park, the Georgian and Sawgrass stacked townhomes by Ballantry Homes date from 2016, and Parkhaven Boulevard has a 2000s-era complex. There are also stacked townhomes on Gatwick Drive and Littlewood Drive. With a condo townhouse, check the fee, what it covers, and the reserve fund. Newer stacked towns may still have Tarion warranty coverage, while older complexes may be due for roofs and windows.

What is it like to live in River Oaks?

River Oaks is built around green space. The Sixteen Mile Creek valley along its western edge has some of Oakville's best trails, and parks and walkways thread between the crescents. The Uptown Core at Trafalgar and Dundas, just to the north-east, covers everyday shopping, with a large grocery store, big-box retailers, restaurants and services, and it's within walking distance of Oak Park. Families are the core of the community, and schools come under the Halton District School Board and the Halton Catholic District School Board; confirm the school for any address, as boundaries change with enrolment. For commuters, Highway 403 and the QEW are to the south, the 407 is to the north, and Oakville GO on the Lakeshore West line is a short drive or bus ride away.

How does River Oaks compare with nearby neighbourhoods?

River Oaks sits between several popular areas. Glen Abbey, across Sixteen Mile Creek to the west, has more detached homes on larger lots. College Park, to the south, is older, with 1960s to 1980s houses closer to the GO station and Sheridan College. West Oak Trails is similar in age and style but further west. North of Dundas Street, the newer communities offer brand-new homes with longer build-out ahead. River Oaks' advantage is that it's fully established, with mature trees, finished parks and the Uptown Core already in place.

How do I buy or sell in River Oaks?

The River Oaks market report is refreshed monthly with sold prices, days on market and inventory for each property type, and it's the best way to check whether a listing is in line. Because River Oaks has so many similar houses and townhouses, recent sales of the same model on nearby streets are a strong guide to value. If you're selling, our home evaluation gives a comparable-sales estimate. Oakville has no municipal land transfer tax, so buyers pay Ontario's land transfer tax only; our land transfer tax calculator estimates it. I'm a Realtor® who works across Oakville and Halton, and I'm happy to go through listings and offers with you, no pressure.
