City market context

From the Hamilton market article, 22 September 2026:

The Hamilton Region recorded a Sales to New Listings Ratio of 45% in September 2026, placing the market at the threshold between seller and buyer dynamics. This balance is accompanied by a 19.5% year-over-year drop in condo apartment average prices to $376,000, while detached home averages declined only 2.4%. Hamilton's housing market has reached a state of equilibrium where the Sales to New Listings Ratio of 45% indicates neither buyers nor sellers hold a decisive advantage, supported by 4.4 months of inventory. This balanced condition masks significant segment divergence, with condos experiencing sharp price corrections and detached homes showing relative resilience, driven by uneven supply absorption across property types.
