## City market context

From the Kitchener market article, 11 October 2026:

Kitchener's average home price fell 12% year-over-year to $646,213 in early October 2026. New listings dropped 21.17% year-over-year while active inventory reached 1,027 units. Kitchener's housing market is experiencing a significant price correction with a 12% year-over-year decline in average sale prices, coinciding with a sharp reduction in new supply that may be moderating further downside pressure on values.
