Team BB Market Pulse: March 2026
The Niagara real estate market is showing strong signs of a seasonal shift, with both inventory and buyer activity picking up as the spring market gains momentum.
In March, residential sales reached 460 units, marking a 19.2% increase over February. This rise in activity was supported by a significant 43.1% jump in new listings month-over-month, bringing 1,345 new properties to market and giving buyers more choice across the region.
While Niagara remains in a buyer’s market, with a sales-to-new listings ratio of 34%, there are clear indicators of improving conditions. Homes are selling in an average of 48 days, a 4% improvement compared to the same time last year, suggesting that well-priced properties are continuing to attract attention and move efficiently.
Year-over-year, sales were slightly lower than March 2025 (502 units), and new listings also trended below last year’s levels (1,514 listings), pointing to a more balanced pace of activity overall.
The year-to-date average home price in Niagara is $620,966, representing a 7.2% decrease compared to March 2025, continuing to present more accessible opportunities for buyers entering the market.
As the spring market continues to unfold, the combination of increased inventory and moderating pricing is creating opportunity on both sides of the transaction.
