The REALTORS\u00ae\u00a0Association of Hamilton-Burlington (RAHB)\u00a0reports<\/a> that 659 residential sales were processed through MLS\u00ae for October 2018 in the Hamilton region \u2014 a drop of 16% when compared to October 2017. New listings on the market were also down by 6% when compared to this time last year.<\/p>\n\n

This tightening of the market has caused the average price of all residential listings in Hamilton to rise from $467,432 a year ago to $499,382 \u2014 that accounts for a 7% increase, although this is now the third month in a row to remain at the half-million mark.<\/p>\n

Looking at all regions within Hamilton, it appears that many ‘luxury markets’ have made up for lost ground over the past few months. Hamilton West, Dundas, Ancaster, and Stoney Creek \u2014 all of which were struggling to reach their 2017 counterparts have finally surpassed the prices they set in fall of last year. Still on the road to recovery is Flamborough and Glanbrook.<\/p>\n

Across the board, it appears that most regions in Hamilton had a strong October. This is a good sign as we enter into the typically quieter winter months.<\/p>\n
