“Waterloo Region’s market continued to reflect the broader trend of cautious buyer activity, with sales down 10.9% year-over-year and new listings falling 14.8% over the same period,” said Bill Duce, CEO of Cornerstone. “While the pullback in both sales and listings may seem concerning on the surface, Waterloo Region remains the tightest market across our coverage area, yet buyers still have more selection than in previous years. It’s also worth noting the differences between communities, with the Kitchener-Waterloo benchmark price down 6.0% year-over-year to $628,300, while Cambridge showed more resilience, with a modest 4.2% decline to $666,400 and a slight uptick month-over-month. These differences are a good reminder that Waterloo Region is not a single market, and connecting with a local REALTOR® who knows your community and neighbourhood is the best way to navigate what this market means for you specifically.”

“Sales activity in Waterloo Region was sluggish in July, down 12.2% month-over-month and 10.0% compared to the same period last year. New listings also pulled back significantly, down 14.3% on a year-over-year basis; however, they were in line with the previous ten-year average for the month,” said Bill Duce, CEO of Cornerstone. “At 3.9 months, Waterloo Region had the lowest months of supply across our market areas, but inventory remained well above the 10-year July average of 1.92 months. This means buyers had more choice than is typical for this time of year, even as new listings moderated. The MLS® Home Price declined moderately across the region, as well as the average sale price, which was down 3.8% year-over-year. Whether you’re buying or selling, Waterloo Region has distinct communities that each tell their own story, and partnering with a local REALTOR® is an important first step to help you make an informed decision.”

“While sales activity in Waterloo Region picked up in June compared with the previous month, year-over-year figures show a 2.9 per cent dip, marking the slowest June on record, just nine sales short of June 2024. Both Kitchener and Waterloo posted double-digit declines; meanwhile, Cambridge boasted a 15.2 per cent increase in sales year-over-year,” said Bill Duce, CEO of Cornerstone. “The number of new listings added to the market remains lower than last year, reducing months of supply in all areas except Kitchener. Waterloo Region continues to have the tightest market conditions compared with our other regions, highlighting why using a local REALTOR® is beneficial for both buyers and sellers as they navigate the local market.”

“The real estate market has gained positive momentum this spring, with steady month-over-month growth in sales and new listing activity since the start of the year, although at a more moderate pace than the same period in 2025,” said Bill Duce, CEO of Cornerstone. “It is encouraging that we are still early in the spring market. These April numbers are just the beginning, and May and June are typically among the strongest months of the year. The Bank of Canada’s decision last week to hold the policy rate was a welcome signal of stability, giving both buyers and sellers greater confidence to move forward with their real estate goals. For those who have been waiting on the sidelines, now is a great time to re-engage with the market.”

“Sales activity in March continued to rebound month-over-month but dipped slightly on a year-over-year basis. The month of March also saw important announcements from the Federal and Ontario governments to remove the HST from most new homes, reduce development charges, and simplify the approvals process. These measures should encourage buyers to consider the new home market and support long-term supply,” says Bill Duce, CEO of Cornerstone. “Removing these fees will help more buyers enter the market, but further solutions, such as a down payment assistance program or increasing the provincial land transfer tax rebate, are needed to get more first-time buyers into the market.”
