Durham Region Real Estate Market Analysis – February 2026
The Durham Region housing market showed early signs of seasonal momentum in February 2026, with home prices rebounding month-over-month, sales activity increasing slightly, and market conditions continuing to hold steady in balanced territory. While year-over-year figures remain softer, the month’s data suggests the market may be gradually warming as we approach the spring real estate season.
February 2026

January 2026

Average Sale Price Rebounds Month-Over-Month
The average sale price in February came in at $850,304, representing a 3.9% increase from January’s $818,695. Despite the monthly rebound, prices were still 5.3% lower than February 2025, when the average sale price was $897,759.
This month-over-month increase is typical as activity begins to pick up after the slower winter months. Buyers who delayed decisions in January often re-enter the market in February, contributing to upward pressure on prices.
Sales Activity Edges Higher
Durham Region recorded 454 sales in February, up from 412 transactions in January, but still below the 555 sales reported in February 2025.
The modest monthly increase aligns with the gradual buildup toward the spring market. While sales remain lower compared to last year, the improvement from January suggests that buyer confidence is slowly returning.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio Improves
The sale-to-list price ratio rose to 99%, up from 98% in January, indicating that buyers are once again paying closer to asking price for well-priced homes. However, the ratio remains below February 2025’s 101%, showing that while demand is strengthening slightly, the market is still less competitive than it was a year ago.
This suggests that buyers continue to have some negotiating room, particularly on properties that are priced aggressively or have been on the market longer.
New Listings Rise Slightly
There were 1,129 new listings in February, a slight increase from 1,084 in January, but still below the 1,229 new listings recorded last February.
The small uptick in new inventory reflects sellers preparing for the spring market, though many may still be waiting for stronger conditions before listing their homes. This cautious approach continues to keep supply from growing too quickly.

Homes Selling Faster Than in January
The average days on market dropped to 41 days, down significantly from 59 days in January. This improvement suggests buyers are becoming more active and decisive as the market begins to pick up momentum.
Meanwhile, months of inventory held steady at 3.63, nearly unchanged from 3.64 in January, keeping Durham Region firmly in balanced market territory. In this environment, neither buyers nor sellers hold a strong advantage, and successful transactions depend on accurate pricing and realistic expectations.

Market Outlook
February’s numbers suggest that the Durham Region real estate market is beginning to transition out of its winter lull. While prices and sales remain lower than last year, the month-over-month improvements in pricing, activity, and days on market point toward a gradual recovery as we approach the traditionally busy spring season.
If listing activity increases in the coming months, buyers could see more choice in the market. At the same time, continued demand could help stabilize pricing as the market moves further into 2026.
For now, Durham continues to operate in a stable, balanced environment, offering opportunities for both buyers and sellers who approach the market with the right strategy.
