Looking at the numbers for Ontario's housing market heading into 2026, there’s plenty to consider for anyone thinking about buying or selling. We’ve seen a 1.3% decline in sales and a notable 10.8% drop in new listings. Home prices are down between 3.6% and 6.9%, which is a welcome shift for many hoping for better affordability. Inventory currently sits at a balanced 4.5 months, and rents have eased by 4.5%—meaning buyers have gained a bit more negotiating room. After decades of guiding clients through the ups and downs of Prince Edward County real estate, I know how important these shifts can be for making decisions, whether you’re searching for your next home or the right investment. Local experience truly matters when navigating a changing market.
