April 2025
April demonstrated strong and consistent performance, with sales volumes well ahead of where they were this time last year. In fact, Hamilton has outperformed national averages in terms of activity growth, which reflects the strength and confidence buyers have in our local market.
While sales numbers are up, prices remain steady—indicating a balanced market where well-presented and correctly priced homes are selling efficiently. Importantly for you as a seller, the number of new listings coming to market has slowed in recent months. This reduction in supply means less competition for your property, which can result in greater buyer interest, stronger offers, and a smoother path to sale.
April Sales Breakdown:
• 103 sales under $700,000 (down 25)
• 95 sales between $700,000–$900,000 (up 6)
• 20 sales from $900,000–$1M (down 10)
• 23 sales from $1M–$1.2M (down 12)
• 17 sales over $1.2M (down 10)
Why Sell Now?
Stronger Buyer Activity: Increased buyer confidence is translating into more viewings, more offers, and quicker sales.
Tightened Supply: Fewer properties on the market means your home will have greater visibility and stand out to active buyers.
Stable Prices: Pricing has remained consistent, which helps underpin buyer trust and leads to solid, realistic offers.
Seasonal Timing Advantage: While winter is traditionally quieter, the current lack of stock could give you a real advantage ahead of the busier spring surge.
