THE SEP 2026 SNAPSHOT

What was recorded in St. Catharines?

107 sales were recorded across all property types in Sep 2026. The median sold price was $545,000, 2.7% below the same month a year earlier. Recorded sales were 23.6% lower than the 140 recorded in Sep 2025.

Supply and activity

381 new sale listings were recorded during the month. The active-listing observation was 752. Sales divided by active listings gives 14.2%; this is a monthly activity ratio, not a prediction of how quickly a particular home will sell.

History and coverage

179 months in the all-types series have recorded sales, with 1,614 sales across the latest 12 calendar months. 6 individual property types have sales in that period. The supplied series runs from Nov 2011 through Sep 2026. Missing periods remain unavailable.

Time and rental context

The listing-days measure was 45, compared with 86 property days. The same-month median rent was $2,100, based on 70 recorded rentals. A resale rental median is not a rental estimate for a future new home.

Among property types with at least five sales, the lowest observed median was $300,000 for condo apartments; the highest was $577,000 for detached homes. These are different groups of homes, so the spread reflects property mix as well as location and size.

READ THE EVIDENCE

A median describes the homes that sold.

107 sales of all property types were recorded in St. Catharines in Sep 2026, alongside 752 active listings. The median was 2.7% lower than the same month a year earlier. A change in the homes sold can move the median without the value of an individual home changing by the same amount.

THE LONGER RECORD

Year-by-year activity in St. Catharines

All property types. Sales are summed only over available months; 2026 ends in September and the first year can also be partial. Price ranges are the lowest and highest qualifying monthly medians in each year, not an annual median or the range of individual sold prices. Partial years should not be compared as full-year totals.

BRING IT BACK TO YOUR SEARCH

Compare the home.
Plan for the closing date.

Start with the matching property type, then compare above-grade space, bedrooms, parking, ownership costs and location. An all-types median can move when a different mix of homes sells.

Historical resale prices describe past transactions. Builder prices, deposits and financing at a future closing date need their own assessment.

SOURCES, SCOPE & LIMITATIONS

Know what you are looking at.

Prepared by Team Arora from a supplied HouseSigma aggregate market-trend export captured October 24, 2026 and imported 2026-10-25. Monthly observations end in Sep 2026. October month-to-date observations are excluded from monthly charts and summaries. Distribution charts are separate provider snapshots captured October 24 and can include ongoing-month activity. This independent interpretation is not operated or endorsed by HouseSigma.

The provider geography is Ontario / St. Catharines / all communities (municipality ID 10314; community ID all). Provider boundaries can differ from municipal, postal and everyday neighbourhood boundaries. Similar names in other parent markets remain separate. Province and region directories do not claim province-wide medians or add overlapping geography counts together.

Headline medians, price-chart points and annual price comparisons require at least five sales in each relevant month. Historical tables retain small sale samples with a label. Rental medians require at least five rentals and a plausible positive value in that month. Missing values are not filled from another month. Year comparisons use the exact calendar month; counts, listing days, distributions and provider indicators retain the qualifications shown alongside them.

Medians reflect the mix of homes transacted, not same-home appreciation or investment returns. Provider popularity is platform-specific and its scale is not independently verified. Our sales-to-active ratio is calculated from the displayed counts, with no market-temperature classification. These figures are historical resale context, not project sales, appraisals, rental guarantees or forecasts. Data has not been audited against individual transactions.
