November Real Estate Report
Nov 5,2020 | Buying
Share This Post:
Starting to sound like a broken record … The market in Guelph is still climbing! Month over month the average sale price in Guelph has increased in 2020. Currently, the average sale price is sitting at $741,746 which is an 18% increase from October 2019!
I pulled some statistics from the Guelph District Real Estate Board to take a closer look at how the average sale price in Guelph and Area has changed over the last 9 years (see below). Other than the exception of 2017, we have seen a steady increase in the sale prices in Guelph- which I hope is peace of mind to our homeowners in the city.
According to statistics provided by the MLS®, home sales numbered 492 units in October 2020. This was a large increase of 26.2% from October 2019. Clearly, people are taking advantage of this hot seller’s market with a 102.3% sale price to list price ratio!

Tri-Annual Market Report: May- September 2020
Sep 4,2020 | Market Reports

A glance at the market conditions in the past 4 months! Guelph & District saw a 13.3% increase in the average sale price, a decline in the number of new listings on the market (almost 12% decrease in inventory compared to this period in 2019), and an average sale price increase by AT LEAST 10% for all home types compared to this period last year! Needless to say, it has been a busy time!
The average days on market for the City of Guelph in this period for 2020 were 20, (4 days LESS vs. 2019). The number of sales in this period decreased by 4.06% compared to May-August of last year.
As you could imagine it is a difficult time for buyers, and we have seen an influx of buyers from Toronto coming to our beautiful little Guelph bubble! As the world has changed this year we are seeing more and more people being able to work from home and therefore move away from the even higher prices in the GTA. Unfortunately, this isn’t making things easy on Guelph residents when seeking to purchase.
If you have any questions about the current state of the Guelph market- please do not hesitate to ask!

Our Partnership with Guelph Today: Community Leaders Program
“We are proud to partner with Guelph Today to bring Guelph untold stories about sports (Pursuit). Growing up in Guelph, and being an active member of the sports community, I’m excited to have the opportunity to bring local sports stories, that may not typically get told, to our community members! Sports are a huge part of who I am and have shaped me into the person I am today. By highlighting and sharing our community’s stories, my hope is that sports will have a similar positive impact on others in the community.” – Nick FitzGibbon
