Oakville-Milton and District MLS® home sales dip in November while inventory remains elevated
The number of homes sold through the MLS® System of the Oakville-Milton and District Real Estate Board totaled 402 units in November 2025, a moderate decrease of 5.2% from November 2024.
Home sales were 1.7% below the five-year average and 15.7% below the 10-year average for the month of November.
On a year-to-date basis, home sales totaled 4,547 units over the first 11 months of the year. This decreased by 7.1% from the same period in 2024.
“Sales eased on both a monthly and a yearly basis, finishing below where we would expect in a typical November. The number of newly listed properties also pulled back, slipping under the 1,000 home mark for the first time this year,” said Ken Mazurek, President of the Oakville-Milton and District Real Estate Board. “Even so, the number of available homes at the end of November remained well above the historical norm for the month. For buyers that have been saying they were waiting for rates to drop, more choice, or lower prices, this may well be that time. For buyers weighing their next step we recommend reaching out to a trusted local REALTOR® who can help map out a strategy that works in today’s market.”
