As winter fades, Niagara’s real estate market is entering a new phase.

Here’s what’s coming next:

1. High Inventory Will Keep Buyers Cautious

• With 1,334 listings in January, buyers have plenty of choices.
• Sellers need to price strategically to stand out.

2. Buyers & Sellers Are Hesitant About Interest Rates

• Many buyers are waiting for rate cuts, but those who wait too long could face more competition later.
• Sellers may delay listing if they expect higher prices later in 2025.

3. Investors Are Watching Closely

• Rental demand is strong, but investors are being more selective.

What This Means for Buyers & Sellers

First-Time Buyers: Spring offers more selection, but waiting could mean higher competition.

Sellers: Listing before more homes hit the market gives you an edge.

Investors: The best deals are out there, but quality matters more than ever.

Spring is all about momentum. With Niagara’s market shifting, now is the time to plan your next move.
