Guelph Housing Market Update - August 2025

The Guelph real estate market continues to show resilience, especially in the Detached home segment, which remains a key driver of local activity. While overall sales volume dipped—112 homes sold in July, down 11.1% from June and 17.9% year-over-year—pricing in Guelph has held relatively firm. The average sale price came in at $861,321, representing a 6.4% decline from the previous month but still up 2.3% compared to July 2024. Notably, new listings were down sharply, with only 234 properties hitting the market—33.7% fewer than the same time last year—contributing to tight supply and continued competition for well-priced Detached homes. Properties are also taking slightly longer to sell, averaging 27 days on market, which is up by a week compared to last year, but overall, the fundamentals of the market remain strong, especially as buyers look ahead to more favorable borrowing conditions.

Property Segment highlights

• Detached homes: $880,083 (↓ 8.15% MoM | ↑ 2.06% YoY)
• Townhomes: $774,429 (↑ 2.27% MoM | ↓ 3.89% YoY)
• Condos: $597,310 (↑ 11.63% MoM | ↑ 10.85% YoY)

While sales volume has cooled, prices are holding steady—or climbing—in several segments, especially condos. If you’re considering a move, a valuation, or just want to better understand what this means for your property or investment, I’m happy to connect.
