🏡 April 2026 Real Estate Market Update

The spring market is picking up momentum!

✔️ Sales are up 15% from March (but slightly down compared to last year)
✔️ More listings hitting the market — up 21% from last month
✔️ Home prices are still a bit lower than last year, but many areas saw small increases from March
✔️ Homes are selling faster — average of 33 days (down from 39 days)
✔️ Inventory is growing, giving buyers more options

💡 What this means for you:

Buyers: More choice and slightly softer prices = good opportunities
Sellers: Market activity is improving, and homes are still moving at a steady pace

With interest rates holding steady and the busy spring season just getting started, May and June are expected to be strong months.

Where function meets modern design 🐾🖤🤍

A sleek black-and-white mudroom featuring a built-in dog wash station and a custom cupboard dog bed—because even their space deserves to be stylish, cozy, and convenient.

The Bank of Canada has kept its key interest rate steady at 2.25%.

Officials are taking a cautious approach as inflation remains slightly elevated and global factors like energy prices stay uncertain. With economic growth steady but not strong, they’re choosing to hold rates for now while waiting for clearer direction.

What this means for homeowners & buyers:
Mortgage rates likely stay stable in the short term. Homeowners won’t see major changes to payments right now, and buyers get more predictability — but there’s no real drop in borrowing costs yet.

In short: rates are unchanged, and the housing market remains steady but still sensitive to inflation and future rate decisions.

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. 🏡

The average days on the market across all Cornerstone market areas was 39 in March, compared to 47 days in February 2026. 📉

Spring is the season of fresh starts — and there’s no better place to begin than right at your front door. 🌷🏡

Curb appeal matters, and a welcoming porch is the first step in making a house feel like home. 🏡

Thinking about selling this spring or just curious what your home might be worth in today’s market? I’d love to help. 💐

Swipe ➡️ to see this incredible laundry room revamp - turning this space to a functional and beautiful space.

The use of drying racks are ingenious - when they aren’t needed, they simply fold up onto the wall and are out of the way.

Cabinets were repainted in the colour Slate Tile by Sherwin Williams.

The Hamilton-Burlington market is showing signs of stability with a slight month-over-month increase in sales despite the year-over-year decline. With homes staying on the market longer and inventory up by over 23% compared to last year, buyers have more options and potentially more negotiating power. The unchanged monthly HPI indicates we may be reaching a pricing plateau after the significant year-over-year adjustments we've seen." - Bill Duce, Cornerstone CEO

Hamilton-Burlington Area Highlights:

-Hamilton-Burlington home sales increased 0.4% month-over-month.
-The number of newly listed properties increased 119.9% on a month-over-month basis.
-The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) was unchanged month-over-month and was down 10.0% on a year-over-year basis.
-The supply of inventory across the market increased 23.1% on a year-over-year basis resulting in a 3.2-month supply of all property types by the end January.
