Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – January 2026

Scugog Township Real Estate Market Analysis – January 2026

The Township of Scugog’s housing market kicked off 2026 with renewed price strength and a noticeable increase in listing activity. While sales volume remained steady, shifts in the mix of properties sold and rising inventory levels shaped a market that continues to sit comfortably in balanced territory.

January 2026

December 2025

Average Sales Price

The average sales price in January 2026 rose to $940,675, marking a strong 19.6% increase from December’s $786,240, but still sitting 5.5% below January 2025’s $995,923.

December’s average was weighed down by fewer higher-end transactions, with only one property selling over $1 million. January told a different story:

5 properties sold between $1 million and $1.3 million
5 properties sold between $900,000 and $1 million
3 properties sold under $800,000

This stronger representation in the upper price ranges helped lift the monthly average significantly. The rebound highlights how sensitive Scugog’s averages can be to changes in the luxury and mid-range segments.

Sales Activity

A total of 14 homes sold in January, slightly above 13 in December and just ahead of 13 sales in January 2025. While sales remain modest compared to peak seasons, the consistency suggests steady buyer engagement to start the year.

The sale-to-list price ratio increased to 97%, up from 95% in December, indicating sellers regained some leverage and buyers were willing to move closer to asking prices.

Listings & Inventory

January typically brings a seasonal increase in new listings, as properties that were taken off the market during the holidays are reintroduced — and this year followed that pattern.

New listings jumped to 38, up from 18 in December, though slightly below 43 in January 2025.
Active listings increased to 69, compared to 56 last month and 59 last year.

The rise in available inventory gives buyers more choice early in the year, setting the stage for a competitive spring market.

The months of inventory climbed to 4.93, up from 4.31 in December, but still firmly within balanced market territory. This indicates neither buyers nor sellers hold a decisive advantage.

Days on Market

Homes in January took an average of 85 days to sell, compared to 51 days in December. This jump reflects carryover listings from late fall and winter, as well as the slower pace typical of early-year markets. Buyers remain active but deliberate, taking time to evaluate options.

Key Takeaways

Average price rebounded 19.6% month-over-month, driven by stronger upper-end sales.
Year-over-year pricing remains slightly lower, reflecting continued normalization.
Sales volume remained steady, consistent with January seasonal trends.
New listings increased, as expected at the start of the year.
Inventory rose but remains balanced, providing opportunities for both buyers and sellers.
Days on market increased, reflecting a slower winter pace.

Outlook for Early 2026

January’s numbers suggest Scugog is entering 2026 on stable footing. Price recovery, steady sales, and increased listing activity all point toward a market preparing for the traditional spring ramp-up.

Buyers currently benefit from expanded inventory and negotiating room, while sellers can take confidence in stronger price performance compared to December. If listing activity continues to rise and buyer demand strengthens, Scugog could see a more competitive environment develop as we move into the spring market.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) from January 2024 through January 2026 provide a clear snapshot of how the Township of Scugog real estate market has evolved across all property types, architectural styles, and home configurations

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – January 2026

Brock Township Real Estate Market Analysis – January 2026

The Brock Township real estate market began 2026 with steady momentum, showing modest price growth, stable sales activity, and balanced inventory conditions. January’s data reflects a market that continues to normalize after the fluctuations seen throughout 2025, with both buyers and sellers entering the new year on relatively even footing.

January 2026

December 2025

Average Sale Price Shows Modest Growth

The average sale price in January 2026 was $662,450, representing:

A 7.5% increase from December 2025 ($616,150)
A 1.9% increase from January 2025 ($650,444)

This steady month-over-month and year-over-year growth suggests improving confidence as the market transitions into a new year. Unlike some of the volatility seen in 2025, January’s pricing appears more stable and reflective of typical mid-range activity rather than being influenced by high-end outliers.

Sales Activity Remains Consistent

There were 10 total sales in January 2026, unchanged from December 2025 (10 sales) and slightly ahead of 9 sales in January 2025.

January is traditionally a quieter month for real estate, so stable sales volume indicates consistent demand despite seasonal slowdowns. Buyers appear active and engaged early in the year.

Sale-to-List Ratio Strengthens

The sale-to-list price ratio rose to 98%, up from 93% in December, though slightly below 99% recorded in January 2025.

This improvement suggests sellers are once again achieving close to their asking prices, signalling competitive conditions for well-priced homes. Buyers are active but still price-sensitive, and accurate pricing remains key.

Inventory Remains Tight but Balanced

Inventory levels held steady:

Active listings: 45 (down slightly from 47 in December, up from 41 last year)
New listings: 25 (up from 14 in December, and slightly higher than 24 last year)

It is typical to see an increase in new listings in January, as properties temporarily withdrawn during the holiday season return to the market. This seasonal pattern helps explain the rebound in new inventory.

Days on Market & Market Balance

Homes sold in an average of 41 days, reflecting a healthy pace for this time of year.

Months of inventory declined slightly to 4.50, down from 4.70 in December, keeping Brock Township firmly within balanced market territory. This level of supply indicates that neither buyers nor sellers currently hold a significant advantage.

Conclusion

January 2026 signals a stable and measured start to the year for the Brock Township housing market. Prices are edging upward, sales remain steady, and inventory levels continue to support balanced conditions.

For buyers, this means reasonable selection and fair negotiation opportunities. For sellers, it’s an encouraging sign that competitively priced homes are attracting strong offers. As we move toward the spring market, increased activity is likely, particularly if inventory levels remain controlled and buyer confidence continues to build.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) from January 2024 through January 2026 provide a clear snapshot of how the Township of Brock real estate market has evolved across all property types, architectural styles, and home configurations

Housing Market Report for January 2026

Here is the Region of Durham Housing January 2026 report (all housing types), with reports from the Canadian Real Estate Association, and Toronto Regional Real Estate Board included.

^{Scroll to the bottom for links to take you to the housing market reports for Uxbridge, Scugog and Brock.}

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – January 2026

Durham Region Real Estate Market Analysis – January 2026

The Durham Region housing market opened 2026 with a slower start, as prices eased, sales dipped, and inventory levels rose modestly. While January is historically one of the quieter months in real estate, this year’s data reflects a market continuing its transition into balanced territory—offering both buyers and sellers clearer expectations and more measured conditions.

January 2026

December 2025

Average Sale Price Declines to Start the Year

The average sale price in January 2026 came in at $818,695, representing a 3.1% decrease from December’s $844,473 and an 8.7% drop compared to January 2025’s $896,611.

Seasonality plays a significant role in January pricing. Fewer transactions and cautious buyer activity often put downward pressure on average values at the start of the year. That said, this adjustment appears to be part of a broader normalization trend rather than a sharp correction. Prices continue to reflect a market that has shifted from peak conditions into a more sustainable range.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio Holds at 98%

The sale-to-list price ratio remained steady at 98%, unchanged from December but down from 100% in January 2025. This indicates that while buyers are negotiating slightly more than they were a year ago, sellers who price appropriately are still achieving close to asking price.

Balanced markets typically see ratios between 97% and 99%, and January’s figure reinforces that Durham remains in that range.

Sales Activity Slows Seasonally

There were 412 total sales in January, down from 455 in December and below the 489 sales recorded in January 2025. The slowdown is consistent with typical seasonal patterns, as many buyers and sellers wait until later in the winter or early spring to make a move.

Despite the year-over-year dip, the decline is moderate and aligns with broader cooling trends seen throughout 2025.

New Listings Surge as the Market Resets

One of the more notable shifts in January was the increase in new listings.
1,084 new properties hit the market, up significantly from 529 in December, though slightly below 1,213 listings in January 2025.

It’s important to note that January historically sees a wave of properties that were listed late in the previous year, terminated in December, and then reintroduced to the market in the new year. This seasonal relaunch effect contributes to the spike in listing activity and often gives buyers a refreshed selection to start the year.

Days on Market and Inventory Rise

Homes spent an average of 59 days on market in January, only slightly below December’s 60 days, indicating that buyers are continuing to take their time before committing.

Meanwhile, months of inventory rose to 3.64, up from 3.13 in December. This increase reflects both the rise in listings and slower sales activity. However, Durham remains comfortably within balanced market territory, where supply and demand are relatively aligned.

What This Means Moving Forward

January 2026 reinforces that Durham Region has moved into a stable and balanced phase of the market cycle. Prices have adjusted year-over-year, inventory is rebuilding gradually, and buyers have more breathing room than in previous high-pressure markets.

As we move toward the spring market, the key factors to watch will be:

Whether buyer activity strengthens with improving weather
How inventory levels trend once the initial January relistings settle
Broader economic influences, including interest rates and consumer confidence

For now, Durham’s market is not overheating, nor is it oversupplied—it is operating in a controlled and sustainable environment.

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – December 2025

Uxbridge Township Real Estate Market Analysis – December 2025

The Uxbridge real estate market closed out December 2025 with signs of seasonal slowdown, balanced by modest price stability. The average sale price rose to $1,190,682, reflecting a 6.4% increase from November’s $1,118,650 and a marginal 0.32% gain year-over-year compared to December 2024’s $1,186,833.

December 2025

November 2025

While the month-over-month increase is notable, it’s important to view December’s figures within the context of reduced activity typical of the holiday season.In December, one property sold for over $2 million, five sold between $1 million and $2 million, and four properties sold under $700,000. By comparison, November saw three sales over $2 million, alongside a much larger number of lower-priced transactions. This shift in sales composition helped lift the average price despite significantly fewer overall sales.

Sales Activity

Total sales fell to 11 in December, down sharply from 20 in November and below the 15 sales recorded in December 2024. This decline aligns with normal seasonal patterns, as many buyers and sellers pause activity during the holidays.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio

The sale-to-list price ratio dropped to 93%, down from 97% in November, signaling increased negotiation and pricing flexibility. With fewer buyers active in the market, sellers faced more pressure to adjust expectations to secure a sale.

Active Listings

Active listings declined significantly to 63, compared to 106 in November, and remained slightly above last December’s 57 listings. This sharp reduction reflects both fewer new listings and some existing inventory being withdrawn from the market during the winter months.

New Listings

New supply slowed to a near standstill, with just 8 new listings in December, compared to 38 in November and 7 in December 2024. This pullback is typical for the season and contributes to stabilizing inventory levels despite weaker sales.

Days on Market

Properties took an average of 129 days to sell, a substantial increase from 68 days in November. This reflects the slower pace of buyer activity and extended decision-making timelines common at year-end.

Months of Inventory

Months of inventory rose slightly to 5.73, up from 5.30 in November, placing the market at the upper edge of balanced territory. While demand softened, the simultaneous drop in new listings helped prevent a deeper move into buyer’s market conditions.

Conclusion

December 2025 marked a calm and seasonal close to the year for the Uxbridge housing market. Prices remained relatively stable, inventory tightened, and activity slowed—patterns consistent with year-end trends rather than market weakness.

As the market transitions into early 2026, the balanced inventory levels suggest a stable foundation. Buyers can expect less competition but slower processes, while sellers who price realistically may find motivated buyers once seasonal activity begins to return in the new year.

✅ Year-End Summary – Uxbridge Housing Market 2025

As 2025 comes to a close, the Uxbridge real estate market finishes the year in balanced territory, marked by fluctuating prices driven largely by the mix of homes sold rather than a dramatic shift in overall demand. While the year saw periods of buyer-favourable conditions and inventory growth, price stability toward the end of the year reflects a market finding its footing. Seasonal slowdowns in late fall and winter reduced sales volume, but inventory also tightened, preventing sharper price declines. Overall, 2025 was a year of normalization, where informed pricing, patience, and strategy proved essential for both buyers and sellers.

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – December 2025

Scugog Township Real Estate Market Analysis – December 2025

The Township of Scugog’s real estate market closed out 2025 with a typical seasonal slowdown in December. Sales volume softened, prices trended lower, and inventory tightened as fewer sellers listed homes during the holiday period. Despite these shifts, overall market conditions remained balanced, reflecting a stable foundation heading into the new year.

December 2025

November 2025

Average Sales Price

The average sales price in December 2025 came in at $786,240, representing a 6.5% decline from November ($840,567) and a 16.9% drop year-over-year compared to $946,643 in December 2024.

The lower average was heavily influenced by the mix of homes sold. In December:

Only one property sold over $1 million
One property sold under $500,000
Seven properties sold between $500,000 and $800,000

By comparison, December 2024 saw four homes sell over $1 million, which helped support higher averages last year. November 2025 also had more mid-range activity, with three sales under $500,000 and 11 between $500,000 and $800,000. The reduced number of higher-end transactions in December naturally pulled the average price lower.

Sales Activity

A total of 13 homes sold in December, down sharply from 24 in November, but nearly identical to 14 sales in December 2024. This decline aligns with normal holiday-season behavior, as both buyers and sellers step back from the market toward year-end.

The sale-to-list price ratio eased to 95%, down from 97% last month, indicating slightly more negotiation and price flexibility for buyers during this slower period.

Listings & Inventory

Inventory levels dropped notably as fewer new listings came to market:

Active listings fell to 56, down from 96 in November, though slightly above the 49 active listings seen in December 2024.
New listings declined to 18, compared to 50 last month, but still ahead of the 14 new listings recorded last December.

This pullback in supply is typical for December, as many sellers choose to wait until the spring market to list.

The months of inventory rose modestly to 4.31, up from 4.00 in November, keeping Scugog firmly in balanced market territory.

Days on Market

Homes continued to sell at a steady pace, averaging 51 days on market, slightly faster than 53 days in November. This suggests that motivated buyers were still active and able to transact efficiently despite the seasonal slowdown.

Key Takeaways

Average prices declined month-over-month and year-over-year, largely due to fewer high-end sales.
Sales volume dropped sharply, reflecting typical December seasonality.
Inventory tightened significantly, with far fewer new listings entering the market.
Sale-to-list ratios softened, giving buyers modest negotiating leverage.
Balanced market conditions remained intact, heading into 2026.

As Scugog moves into early 2026, the December data highlights a market that slowed for the holidays but remained fundamentally stable. Buyers may find opportunities during the quieter winter months, while sellers preparing for the spring market will want to watch inventory levels and pricing trends closely as activity begins to ramp up again in the new year.

✅ Year-End Market Summary (2025)

As 2025 comes to a close, the Scugog real estate market reflects a year of adjustment and normalization following the volatility of previous years. Prices trended lower in the second half of the year, largely influenced by fewer luxury sales and a higher concentration of mid-range and entry-level transactions. Despite these shifts, overall market conditions remained balanced, with steady absorption, reasonable selling timelines, and consistent buyer engagement. Inventory fluctuated throughout the year but settled at healthy levels by December, positioning Scugog well for a potentially active spring market in 2026. Both buyers and sellers enter the new year with clearer pricing expectations and a more stable market foundation.

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – December 2025

Brock Township Real Estate Market Analysis – December 2025

The Brock Township real estate market closed out 2025 with signs of stabilization, as pricing edged higher from November and inventory levels tightened. While average sale prices remained well below last year’s levels, December data suggests the market is beginning to rebalance after several months in buyer-favoured territory.

December 2025

November 2025

Average Sale Price Improves Month-Over-Month but Remains Well Below Last Year

The average sale price in December 2025 was $616,150, representing a:

4.0% increase from November 2025 ($592,333), and
26.0% decrease from December 2024 ($832,833).

The year-over-year decline is largely explained by the absence of luxury sales. In December 2024, two properties sold in the $1–$2 million range, which significantly elevated last year’s average.

By contrast, December 2025’s highest sale was $820,000, with two properties selling for under $500,000, keeping the average price much more reflective of the Township’s core market.

Sales Activity Picks Up Slightly

A total of 10 properties sold in December, up from 9 sales in November, and notably higher than the 6 sales recorded in December 2024.

While activity remains modest—as expected for the holiday season—the increase suggests steady buyer interest, particularly at more affordable price points.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio Softens

The sale-to-list price ratio fell to 93%, down from 98% in November and below 96% recorded in December 2024.

This decline indicates that buyers maintained negotiating leverage in December, and sellers were more willing to adjust pricing to secure deals before year-end.

Inventory Tightens Significantly

Supply levels declined sharply as the year wrapped up:

Active listings: 47 (down from 69 in November, slightly above 44 last year)
New listings: 14 (down from 25 last month, but higher than just 5 last year)

The reduction in listings reflects seasonal slowdown, but also contributed to improved balance between supply and demand.

Days on Market & Market Balance

Homes spent an average of 97 days on the market, highlighting slower transaction timelines and cautious buyer decision-making.

However, months of inventory dropped to 4.70, down from 7.67 in November, officially shifting the market back into balanced territory. This change suggests that reduced supply, rather than increased demand, is helping stabilize conditions.

Conclusion

December 2025 marked a transition month for the Brock Township real estate market. While prices remained significantly lower than last year due to the absence of high-end sales, the modest price rebound from November, rising sales, and declining inventory all point to a market finding its footing.

As Brock Township enters 2026, buyers will continue to benefit from reasonable pricing and negotiating room, while sellers may see improved conditions if inventory remains constrained. Much will depend on how early-year listings and buyer confidence shape the spring market ahead.

✅ Year-End Summary (2025 Overview)

As 2025 comes to a close, the Brock Township real estate market reflects a year of adjustment and normalization. After periods of price volatility driven by high-end sales earlier in the year, the market gradually shifted toward more realistic pricing and balanced conditions. Sales activity remained steady overall, while inventory levels fluctuated between buyer-favoured and balanced territory. By year-end, reduced listings helped stabilize the market, setting the stage for a more measured and sustainable start to 2026. Buyers benefited from increased negotiating power through much of the year, while sellers who priced accurately continued to achieve successful results.

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – December 2025

Durham Region Real Estate Market Analysis – December 2025

The Durham Region housing market closed out 2025 with a familiar seasonal slowdown in December, marked by fewer sales, reduced new listings, and longer selling times. While prices remained under pressure compared to last year, month-over-month values edged slightly higher, and inventory tightened enough to keep the market firmly in balanced territory—setting the stage for a potentially more active start to 2026.

December 2025

November 2025

Average Sale Price Edges Up Month-Over-Month

The average sale price in December came in at $844,473, up 0.4% from November’s $840,833, though still 9.2% lower than December 2024’s $930,207.

This modest monthly increase suggests that prices may be beginning to stabilize, even as overall activity slows during the holiday season. With fewer transactions taking place, pricing tends to reflect only the most motivated buyers and sellers, which can help limit sharper swings.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio Holds at 98%

The sale-to-list price ratio remained unchanged at 98%, consistent with November but down from 100% last year. This continues to signal a market where buyers have negotiating power, while sellers who price realistically can still achieve close-to-asking-price results.

Sales Slow Seasonally but Improve Year-Over-Year

Durham recorded 455 sales in December, down from 622 in November, in line with the typical holiday slowdown. Notably, sales were higher than December 2024’s 404 transactions, pointing to underlying demand that may carry into the new year once seasonal constraints ease.

New Listings Pull Back Sharply

New listings dropped to 529, down significantly from 1,186 in November, and slightly above 486 listings last December. This sharp decline reflects many sellers opting to wait for the spring market, which helped prevent inventory from building excessively at year-end.

Homes Take Longer to Sell as Inventory Tightens

The average days on market rose to 60 days, up from 51 in November, showing buyers are taking more time to make decisions. Despite slower sales, months of inventory dipped to 3.13, down from 3.46, keeping Durham just inside balanced market territory.

The tightening in inventory is largely the result of fewer new listings rather than an increase in buyer activity.

Conclusion

December 2025 closed out the year with predictable seasonal softness, but without signs of instability. Prices edged slightly higher month-over-month, inventory tightened, and year-over-year sales improved modestly.

As Durham Region heads into 2026, the market appears to be resetting rather than retreating. Buyers may continue to benefit from balanced conditions and negotiation opportunities, while sellers who prepare early and price strategically could be well-positioned as activity begins to build in the months ahead.

Year-End Summary (December 2025)

As 2025 comes to a close, the Durham Region real estate market has clearly transitioned into a more balanced and sustainable environment. While prices finished the year lower than 2024, month-over-month stability, tightening inventory, and a modest improvement in year-over-year December sales suggest that the market is resetting rather than declining. Buyers and sellers alike are entering 2026 with more predictable conditions, realistic pricing expectations, and renewed focus on strategy over urgency.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) from January 2024 through December 2025 provide a clear snapshot of how the Durham Region real estate market has evolved across all property types, architectural styles, and home configurations

Monday Market Minute – Uxbridge & Scugog Real Estate Update
Week of December 28 to January 3

The final week of the year brought a seasonal slowdown to the real estate markets in both the Township of Uxbridge and the Township of Scugog. With the holidays in full swing, activity across both communities remained quiet—something we expect to see every year at this time.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog

Uxbridge Market Snapshot

Uxbridge recorded no new listings during the week, unchanged from the previous week. One property that had been previously listed returned to the market.

There were no price adjustments, reflecting limited activity and fewer properties actively competing for buyer attention.

On the sales side, there were no conditional sales, down from two the week before, while one property sold firm, matching last week’s total.

Active inventory continued to decline, with 88 active listings, down from 100 the previous week. This drop highlights how quickly inventory tightens during the holiday season.

Scugog Market Snapshot

In Scugog, the market remained calm but saw slightly more movement.

There was one new listing, consistent with last week, along with five previously listed properties coming back to the market.

Price adjustments increased to three properties, up from zero the week before, as some sellers repositioned ahead of the new year.

Sales activity included one conditional sale, unchanged from last week, and two firm sales, up from one.

Active listings declined again, landing at 76 properties, down from 89, continuing the trend of shrinking inventory.

Looking Ahead

Overall, this was a typical year-end market, marked by fewer listings, fewer sales, and tightening inventory across both townships. As we move into January, activity is expected to gradually pick up as buyers and sellers return with fresh plans and new goals for the year ahead.

If you’re considering buying or selling in Uxbridge or Scugog in 2026, now is an excellent time to start planning and preparing.

Monday Market Minute – Uxbridge & Scugog Real Estate Update
Week of December 7 to December 13

As we move deeper into December, the real estate markets in Uxbridge and Scugog continue to show seasonal trends—fewer new listings, tightening inventory, and steady buyer activity. Here’s a breakdown of what happened across both townships during the week of December 7 to December 13.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog

Uxbridge Market Snapshot

Uxbridge saw an increase in new listings this week, with 4 properties coming to market, up from just 1 last week. In addition, 3 previously listed homes returned to the market, giving buyers a few more options to consider.

Seller activity remained steady with 4 price adjustments, slightly higher than last week’s total of 3. This indicates that sellers are continuing to position their homes competitively as year-end approaches.

On the sales side:

1 property sold conditionally, down from 5 the previous week
5 properties sold firm, an increase from 4 last week

Active inventory dropped significantly to 117 properties, down from 130, continuing the trend of tightening supply in the Uxbridge market.

Scugog Market Snapshot

Scugog experienced a quieter week for new listings, with just 1 new property added to the market, compared to 5 last week. However, 5 previously listed homes were brought back to market, helping to maintain some balance for buyers.

Price adjustments slowed, with 6 this week, down from 9 the week before.

Sales activity remained consistent:

3 properties sold conditionally, down from 5 last week
4 properties sold firm, just slightly lower than last week’s 5

Total active listings declined again to 100 properties, down from 107, reinforcing the continued reduction in available inventory as the year comes to a close.

What This Means Moving Forward

Both Uxbridge and Scugog are reflecting typical December market conditions—lower inventory levels and fewer new listings, but continued movement among motivated buyers and sellers. For sellers, reduced competition can be an advantage, while buyers may benefit from more focused negotiations during the holiday season.

If you’re thinking about buying or selling as we head into the new year, understanding these trends can help you plan your next move with confidence.

Port Perry History • December 10, 2025

Port Perry Train Station

by Shane Coxworth

A Look Back at the Port Perry Train Station: From Railway Hub to Relocated Relic

Where Palmer Park now stretches along the east side of Water Street—just south of the iconic Grain Elevator—once stood one of Port Perry’s most important early landmarks: the Port Perry Train Station. Though the station itself has long since vanished from its original site, its legacy lives on in the shaping of local industry, commerce, and community growth.

The Arrival of the Railway (1871)

Port Perry’s first train station was built in 1871 by the Port Whitby and Port Perry Railway. On November 23 of that year, the first train steamed into town, marking a transformative moment in local history. The original building was modest—a small rectangular structure with a pitched “lean-to” roof that offered only minimal shelter to passengers waiting on the exposed platform.

At the time, the rails terminated in Port Perry. But with business opportunities growing, an extension to Lindsay was completed in 1877. This expansion led to the rebranding of the railway as the Whitby, Port Perry & Lindsay Railway.

A Growing Community and a Busy Line

By 1886, the railway had become a vital part of everyday life in Port Perry. Six trains were stopping in the community each day—an impressive schedule that spoke to the region’s economic growth and the importance of Port Perry as a transportation link for goods and residents.

A New Station for a Growing Town (1888–1889)

As traffic increased, plans were set in motion for a larger, more functional station. Construction began in August 1888, requiring a shift of the rail line itself—moving it 25 feet to the east. By June 1889, the new station was complete and opened to passengers.

This new building was far more substantial than its predecessor. A two-storey wood-frame structure with a classic gable roof, it featured a distinctive rectangular operator’s window overlooking the tracks. The upper floor served as living quarters for the station agent, while the main level housed the essential station facilities. A single-storey freight shed extended from the main building, reflecting the importance of shipping and goods movement in the area.

Decline of Passenger Rail (1937)

Passenger service to Port Perry came to an end in 1937. As automobiles became more affordable and road networks improved, train ridership declined across the country. The economic pressures of the Great Depression only accelerated this downward trend.

The War Effort and the end of the Line (1942)

Not long after the last passenger trains left Port Perry, the world entered the turmoil of the Second World War. Steel became a critical resource, and the rails were lifted and melted down to support wartime production. By 1942, all railway operations in Port Perry had ceased.

A Building with a Second Life

Although the trains were gone, the station building itself survived—just not where it originally stood. After closing, it was moved across to the west side of Water Street, behind what is now 166 Water Street. For many years, the relocated structure housed various commercial ventures, including a well-remembered flower shop.

Over time, the building underwent multiple modifications and renovations. Today, it is generally unrecognizable from its historic form—but its bones, and its story, remain woven into the fabric of downtown Port Perry.

A Quiet Legacy

Though the station is no longer in its original location and the tracks have long been removed, the railway’s impact on Port Perry is undeniable. It helped shape the early economic landscape, connected the community to the wider region, and played a crucial role in the development of the town residents know and love today.

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – November 2025

Read the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board Market Watch Report

Uxbridge Township Real Estate Market Analysis – November 2025

The Uxbridge real estate market continued its late-year adjustment in November 2025, with the average sale price declining to $1,118,650. This represents a 6.4% decrease from October’s $1,195,573 and a 12.1% decline from November 2024’s $1,271,969. While the average price fell, the change is closely tied to shifts in the types of homes sold, rather than a broad drop in property values.

November 2025

October 2025

In October, sales were spread across a wide range of price points, with only one property selling above $2 million. In contrast, November saw three sales over $2 million, yet a heavier concentration of lower-priced homes—including 12 properties under $1 million and four under $700,000—ultimately pulled the average down. This demonstrates how a month’s sales mix can significantly influence the overall numbers.

Sales Activity

Sales activity showed a modest improvement, with 20 homes sold in November, up from 19 in October and considerably higher than the 16 sales recorded in November 2024. This increase suggests that despite economic uncertainties and seasonal slowdowns, buyer demand remains steady, particularly in the lower-price categories.

Sale-to-List Price Ratio

The sale-to-list price ratio rose slightly to 97%, compared to 96% in October, indicating stronger alignment between seller expectations and buyer offers. Even with downward pressure on prices in some segments, properties are still selling close to asking—especially when priced competitively.

Active Listings

Active listings dropped to 106, down from 125 in October, though notably higher than the 86 listings reported this time last year. This decline reflects a typical seasonal tapering, yet the overall inventory remains comfortable, offering buyers more variety than in late 2024.

New Listings

New inventory slowed significantly, with only 38 new listings in November, compared to 63 in October. This number is nearly identical to the 37 new listings in November 2024, suggesting consistent seller behaviour year over year. Seasonal patterns—and perhaps market hesitation—are contributing to this pullback in new supply.

Days on Market

Homes spent an average of 68 days on the market, slightly higher than October’s 64 days, reinforcing the current slower-paced environment. Buyers continue to take their time evaluating options, and longer DOM is typical during late fall and early winter.

Months of Inventory

Months of inventory decreased to 5.30, down from 6.58 in October, nudging the market back into balanced territory. This shift was largely due to the combination of fewer active listings and a slight sales uptick, tightening conditions without tipping the scale fully toward sellers.

Conclusion

November 2025 presented a steady and predictable adjustment in the Uxbridge housing market. Although the average sale price softened, this change was shaped by an influx of lower-priced home sales rather than a decline in market fundamentals. Inventory levels eased, sales held strong compared to last year, and the market returned to balanced conditions heading into winter.

Looking ahead, Uxbridge is positioned for a stable winter season, with balanced supply and demand keeping the market healthy. Buyers continue to benefit from choice and negotiating room, while sellers who strategically price their homes remain successful—even in a cooler, late-year environment.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) from January 2024 through November 2025 provide a clear snapshot of how the Township of Uxbridge real estate market has evolved across all property types, architectural styles, and home configurations

From Toronto Regional Real Estate Board

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – November 2025

Scugog Township Real Estate Market Analysis – November 2025

The Township of Scugog’s real estate market continued its seasonal slowdown in November 2025, with average prices dipping further while sales activity remained steady. Despite cooling conditions, balanced market indicators suggest that both buyers and sellers still have solid opportunities as the year winds down.

November 2025

October 2025

Average Sales Price

The average sales price for November 2025 came in at $840,567, marking a 10.3% drop from October’s average of $937,028 and a more significant 21.7% decline year-over-year from $1,073,564 in November 2024.

This decline reflects a noticeable shift in the mix of homes sold. While October saw 25 of 32 sales under $1 million, November pushed even lower:

3 homes sold under $500,000
11 homes sold between $500,000 and $800,000

With far fewer mid- to high-end transactions this month, the average sale price naturally trended downward. The composition of sales—not necessarily overall property values—played the biggest role in shaping November’s numbers.

Sales Activity

November recorded 24 total sales, down from 32 in October, but up significantly from 14 sales in November 2024.

The sale-to-list price ratio held steady at 97%, matching last month’s performance. This stability shows that sellers who price appropriately are still attracting committed buyers, even as the market tapers into its typical winter rhythm.

Listings & Inventory

The supply side of the market tightened in November:

Active listings fell to 96, dropping from 118 in October, though still higher than the 74 listings available last year.
New listings came in at 50, slightly below the 55 added in October, but above the 41 new listings recorded in November 2024.

With fewer homes hitting the market and several older listings being absorbed by buyers, Scugog’s inventory took a natural step down as winter approaches.

The months of inventory rose slightly to 4.00, up from 3.69, but still firmly within balanced market territory. This means conditions remain fair for both sides: buyers have choice, and sellers retain solid negotiating power.

Days on Market

Homes sold more quickly in November, averaging 53 days on market, a notable improvement from 68 days in October. This shorter selling timeline suggests that buyers who remain active this late in the year are serious and decisive.

Key Takeaways

Average prices fell 10.3% month-over-month, mostly due to a higher volume of lower-priced sales.
Entry-level and mid-range housing dominated the market, pulling down average sale prices despite steady demand.
Sales exceeded last year’s totals, showing ongoing buyer activity in Scugog.
inventory tightened, with fewer new listings and fewer active listings overall.
Months of inventory remains balanced at 4.00, signaling healthy market conditions heading into winter.
Homes sold faster, indicating stronger motivation among late-season buyers.

As 2025 winds down, Scugog’s housing market remains steady, balanced, and active. While average prices continue to adjust due to the types of homes selling, buyer confidence appears stable, and well-priced listings continue to draw interest—even as we move deeper into the slower winter season.

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – November 2025

Brock Township Real Estate Market Analysis – November 2025

The Brock Township real estate market shifted notably in November 2025, with softer pricing, fewer sales, and rising inventory conditions pushing the market back into buyers-market territory. While activity slowed, the data highlights a market adjusting to seasonal trends and broader economic pressures.

November 2025

October 2025

Average Sale Price Declines Month-Over-Month and Year-Over-Year

The average sale price in November 2025 was $592,333, representing a:

15.5% decrease from October 2025’s $701,000, and
17.2% drop from November 2024’s $715,389.

The month-over-month decline is especially notable because October included three sales between $1 million and $1.5 million, which elevated last month’s average.

By contrast, November recorded no sales above $1 million, with only two properties selling over $700,000 and three selling under $500,000, pulling the average downward.

Sales Activity Slows Sharply

There were 9 total sales in November, a significant drop from both:

18 sales in October 2025, and
18 sales in November 2024.

This decline reflects typical late-fall seasonality but also signals more cautious buyer behaviour as affordability pressures and economic uncertainty continue to shape demand.

Sellers Achieving Closer to Asking Price

Despite lower overall pricing, sellers saw stronger offer performance.

The sale-to-list price ratio climbed to 98%, up from:

95% in October, and
matching 98% from last November.

This suggests that while fewer properties sold, well-priced homes attracted serious, motivated buyers willing to meet sellers closer to their expectations.

Inventory Rises, Shifting Market Into Buyers Territory

Inventory trends shifted meaningfully in November:

Active listings: 69 (down from 82 in October but above 65 last year)
New listings: 25 (down from 41 last month, slightly above last year’s 22)

Homes also took longer to sell, with average days on market increasing to 68 days.

The most significant change was in months of inventory, which jumped to:

7.67 months, up from 4.56 in October

This increase formally places Brock Township into a buyers market, where inventory exceeds demand and buyers gain negotiating leverage.

Conclusion

November 2025 marked a cooler and more balanced real estate environment in Brock Township, with declining prices and reduced sales signalling a shift in market momentum. While the rise in months of inventory gives buyers more options and bargaining power, sellers can still succeed by focusing on accurate pricing and strong listing presentation.

As the winter season approaches, the market’s direction will depend on how inventory levels evolve, buyer confidence heading into 2026, and the broader economic landscape.

Toronto Regional Real Estate Board – Market Stats At A Glance – November 2025

Durham Region Real Estate Market Analysis – November 2025

The Durham Region housing market continued its steady shift toward balance in November 2025, with prices ticking lower, inventory tightening slightly, and activity slowing as the end of the year approaches. While year-over-year figures remain down across most categories, the market is showing consistency, and buyers and sellers appear to be settling into more predictable patterns after months of volatility.

November 2025

October 2025

🏡 Average Sale Price Continues Gradual Decline

The average sale price in November landed at $840,833, marking a 1.3% decrease from October’s $851,764 and a 7.0% drop compared to November 2024’s $904,226. This softening aligns with seasonal expectations, as late fall and early winter traditionally bring lower price points due to reduced competition and more cautious buyer behavior.

Despite the decline, price movements remain moderate rather than dramatic—supporting the idea that the market is functioning in a more level, predictable manner.

📈 Sale-to-List Price Ratio Holds Steady at 99%

The sale-to-list price ratio improved slightly month-over-month, rising from 98% in October to 99% in November. While still below the 100% ratio seen last year, this is a positive sign that sellers are achieving close to asking price when homes are priced competitively.

This small uptick also indicates that motivated buyers are still engaging, even as overall activity cools.

📉 Sales Decline Into Late Fall

Durham recorded 622 sales in November, down from 715 in October, reflecting the expected seasonal slowdown. Year-over-year, sales were also lower compared to 739 transactions in November 2024.

However, the decline is not disproportionate and mirrors typical late-year patterns across the GTA. Buyers tend to delay moves until after the holiday season, making this dip more reflective of timing than weakening demand.

📉 New Listings Drop Sharply

One of the most notable changes this month was the steep decline in new inventory.
New listings fell to 1,186, down significantly from 1,792 in October, and nearly identical to the 1,198 recorded last November.

This drop signals that many sellers are choosing to hold off listing until the new year—an expected seasonal trend that also contributes to tightening supply.

⏳ Homes Taking Longer to Sell, but Inventory Tightens Slightly

The average days on market rose again to 51 days, up from 47 in October, showing that buyers are taking longer to make decisions and that homes require more time to secure firm offers.

Surprisingly, despite slower sales, months of inventory dipped slightly from 3.60 to 3.46, due to the sharp decline in new listings. This keeps Durham in balanced market territory, where neither buyers nor sellers hold a dominant advantage.

Conclusion

November 2025 continued Durham’s trend toward steady balance. Prices eased, sales slowed, and inventory tightened—but all within expected seasonal norms. While year-over-year figures highlight softer conditions compared to 2024, the market remains stable rather than stressed.

As we move into December and the quietest stretch of the real estate calendar, the region is well positioned for a more active start to 2026. With the GTA experiencing pockets of renewed confidence, time will tell whether that momentum spreads east into Durham once the new year’s activity ramps up.

Welcome to this week’s Monday Market Minute, your quick snapshot of what’s happening in the real estate markets across the Township of Uxbridge and the Township of Scugog. As we move deeper into December, we’re seeing typical seasonal patterns emerge, with tightening inventory and steady buyer activity in both communities.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog

Uxbridge Real Estate Overview

The Uxbridge market held steady this week with 1 new listing, the same number we saw last week. In addition, 2 previously listed properties returned to the market, adding some movement to the inventory.

Price adjustments slowed noticeably, with 3 changes compared to 7 last week, suggesting that sellers may be settling into more accurate pricing as the year winds down.

Buyer activity picked up slightly:

5 conditional sales (up from 3 last week)
4 firm sales (just one fewer than last week)

Active inventory dipped to 130 homes, down from 136, keeping supply tight as buyers continue to make thoughtful moves before year-end.

Scugog Real Estate Overview

Scugog had a quieter week for new inventory, with 3 new listings—down from 7 last week. However, 7 returning listings came back to the market, contributing to overall activity.

Price adjustments remained consistent with 9 changes, matching last week’s total.

Sales activity showed solid engagement:

5 conditional sales (up from 4 last week)
5 firm sales (compared to 7 last week)

Active listings decreased to 107, down from 112, reflecting the seasonal slowdown and continued buyer interest.

What This Means for Buyers & Sellers

Both Uxbridge and Scugog are showing signs of typical December market behaviour:

Lower new inventory,
Steady buyer activity, and
A gradual tightening of supply.

For buyers, opportunities still exist—especially with returning listings and strategic price adjustments. For sellers, continued buyer engagement means well-priced homes are moving.

Port Perry History • December 3, 2025

The Port Perry Grain Elevator

by Shane Coxworth

The Port Perry Grain Elevator: A Towering Legacy on the Waterfront

Standing proudly on the shores of Port Perry’s waterfront is one of Canada’s most remarkable historic structures: the Port Perry Grain Elevator. More than just a striking silhouette against the skyline, this iconic building is recognized as Canada’s oldest and most significant wood bin grain elevator—a testament to the town’s agricultural past and its resilience.

Early Beginnings: The Vision of George and Mark Currie

The story begins with George Currie, who arrived in Prince Albert after several years working as a grain merchant in Oshawa. In 1844, he launched a grain-buying business in the area, soon joined by his brother Mark, with whom he operated a thriving general merchandising store specializing in dry goods, liquors, wines, and even children’s wear.

By the 1850s, the Currie brothers had become one of the region’s leading grain purchasers, building a strong foundation for the agricultural economy that would shape Port Perry’s future.

Constructing a Giant: Building the Elevator in 1874

Although detailed records are limited, it is known that construction on the massive grain elevator began in April 1874. Built on a robust 24-inch stone foundation, the structure rose to an impressive 58 feet. Its enormous frame was crafted from heavy pine beams, while the exterior was clad in thick lumber—2×8 boards covering the first 26 feet and 2×6 boards above, all topped with vertical boarding to protect the joints.

Original accounts note that the building was painted a distinctive rusty red, making it an even more eye-catching presence on the waterfront.

The Ross Era and Survival of the Great Fire

Around 1876, George Currie sold the elevator to his partner Aaron Ross, who operated the business as A. Ross Elevator. When Aaron’s son William joined the company, the name changed to Ross & Son Elevator, marking a new chapter in its operation.

In July 1884, disaster struck. A devastating fire tore through Port Perry, destroying much of the town. Yet the grain elevator, remarkably, was the only building to survive—a fact that further cemented its status as a community landmark.

By 1900, the mill boasted 18 bins, each capable of holding a substantial 2,000 bushels of grain. Around this time, William Ross also upgraded the structure with protective metal siding.

A Century of Changing Hands

The early 20th century saw several ownership changes:

1909 – William Ross retired, selling to James Lucas
1916 – Lucas sold to Hogg and Lytle
Later – Hogg and Lytle sold to Toronto Elevators

In 1962, the elevator found its final industrial owner when Maple Leaf Mills (Master Feeds) assumed control, operating the mill until its closure in 1979.

A New Purpose and Preservation

With the industrial chapter coming to an end, the elevator was purchased in 1980 by Fred Burghgraef, whose son Jim opened Port Perry Auto Supply in the building the following year. Locals affectionately came to know the structure as “The Old Mill.”

A significant milestone came in 2009, when the Township of Scugog acquired the property, completing municipal ownership of the surrounding waterfront block. This purchase ensured that the iconic elevator would remain a protected and celebrated feature of Port Perry’s historic lakeshore.

A Star on Screen

The elevator’s dramatic appearance and rustic charm have made it a popular filming location over the years, with the site appearing in several movies—a nod to its timeless and atmospheric presence.

A Lasting Symbol of Port Perry

Today, the Port Perry Grain Elevator stands as a rare surviving example of early Canadian grain-handling architecture. Its age, size, and wooden construction make it the largest and oldest wood bin elevator in the country—a truly irreplaceable heritage landmark.

Whether viewed as a relic of Port Perry’s agricultural roots, a survivor of tragedy, or a chapter in the story of the town’s waterfront, the Port Perry Grain Elevator continues to inspire admiration. It remains not just a building, but a symbol of resilience, innovation, and the enduring spirit of the community.

Monday Market Minute – Uxbridge & Scugog Real Estate Update
Week of November 23 to November 29

By Shane Coxworth, Coldwell Banker R.M.R. Real Estate

As we moved into the final days of November, both Uxbridge and Scugog saw noticeable shifts in inventory levels, signaling the seasonal slowdown that typically arrives this time of year. Here’s your full breakdown of what happened in the local real estate markets during the week of November 23rd to November 29th.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog

Uxbridge Market Highlights

The Uxbridge market was quieter this week, with limited new inventory coming online:

1 new listing, down from 3 the previous week
6 listings returned to the market
7 price adjustments, more than double last week’s 3
3 conditional sales, compared to 5 last week
5 firm sales, down slightly from 7
136 active listings at week’s end, down from 144

Despite fewer new listings, price adjustments increased as sellers work to position their homes competitively heading into December.

Scugog Market Highlights

The Scugog market was more active on the listing side, though overall inventory still moved downward:

7 new listings, up from 4 last week
8 listings returned to market
9 price adjustments, down from last week’s 13
4 conditional sales, matching the previous week
7 firm sales, also matching last week
112 active listings, a drop from 118

Steady sales activity paired with fewer overall listings suggests buyers are still motivated despite the slower season.

What This Means for Buyers & Sellers

As expected, inventory continues to tighten as the holidays approach. For buyers, this means less selection but also fewer competing offers. For sellers, motivated buyers remain in the market, and well-priced homes are still moving.

If you’re considering buying or selling, now is a great time to plan your next steps. I’m here to help you navigate the winter market confidently.

Monday Market Minute – Uxbridge & Scugog Real Estate Update
Week of November 16 to November 22

As we move toward the end of November, both the Uxbridge and Scugog real estate markets continue to show shifting momentum with reduced inventory and steady buyer activity. Here’s your full breakdown of what happened between November 16th and November 22nd.

Weekly Real Estate Market Minute for the Townships of Uxbridge and Scugog

Uxbridge Real Estate Highlights

This week in Uxbridge, the market remained active but continued its gradual tightening:

3 new listings hit the market (down from 4 the previous week).
5 previously listed properties returned to the market.
Only 3 properties saw price adjustments, a sharp decrease from last week’s 14, suggesting more stable pricing.
5 conditional sales were recorded (similar to 6 last week).
7 firm sales, up slightly from 6 the previous week.
144 active listings remained at week’s end, down from 145.

With fewer price changes and solid sales activity, the Uxbridge market appears to be stabilizing, even as available inventory continues to gradually decline.

Scugog Real Estate Highlights

The Scugog market was also busy, with notable shifts from the previous week:

4 new listings entered the market (compared to 5 last week).
8 properties were relisted, keeping inventory moving.
13 price adjustments, up significantly from 5 the week prior — indicating sellers are adjusting to current buyer behaviour.
4 conditional sales compared to 2 last week.
7 firm sales, matching last week’s total.
118 active listings at the end of the week, a substantial drop from 129.

Lower inventory but steady firm sales suggest that motivated buyers are still active heading into late fall — especially as well-priced homes continue to attract attention.

What This Means for Buyers & Sellers

Both markets are seeing declining inventory, which is typical leading into the winter months. Well-priced homes continue to move, and sellers who strategically position their properties in the market are finding buyers.

If you’re considering buying or selling, understanding these weekly shifts is key. Whether you’re adjusting pricing, preparing to list, or waiting for the right opportunity — we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Uxbridge Real Estate Market Update

Uxbridge experienced another balanced week, with several indicators showing increased movement compared to the previous period.

New & Returning Listings

10 properties returned to market after previously being listed

While new listing activity remained steady, the higher number of returning listings contributed to a moderate level of overall inventory cycling through the system.

This increase reflects sellers continuing to adjust expectations in response to buyer activity and market conditions.

Sales Activity

The big story in Uxbridge this week was the jump in firm sales, doubling week-over-week and signaling strong buyer commitment.

Active Inventory

New & Returning Listings

5 new listings (down from 7 last week)
6 properties returned to market

New listings eased off slightly, while returning listings helped maintain overall activity.
