August 2025 Windsor, Essex County, and Chatham Ontario Real Estate Update

August 2025 saw steady home prices, active listings, and competitive offers across Windsor, Essex County, and Chatham Ontario. Kris Ramotar shares the latest real estate stats, market insights, and honest advice for buyers and sellers in our communities.

What’s Happening in the Local Market

This August, our local real estate market reflected both opportunity and challenge for families thinking about buying or selling. Across Windsor, Essex County, and Chatham Ontario, 1,124 homes were listed, while 429 sold on the MLS. The average sale price hovered around $567,000. Meanwhile, 91 homes expired and 515 listings were canceled, reminding sellers to price homes wisely and showcase them in top condition.

Condos followed similar trends—103 listed, 27 sold, with average prices near $350,000, and typical sale times stretching to 37 days. Understanding these numbers helps buyers and sellers make smarter choices before entering negotiations.

Real Stories and Honest Local Guidance

In today's market, offer dates and multi-bid scenarios are common. Many buyers feel pressure to submit clean offers with few conditions. I always try to protect my clients by advising pre-inspections and working with trusted lenders for secure mortgage commitments.

Families who bought during peak years may now face negative equity, especially if they relied on out-of-town agents unfamiliar with local trends. Location is always critical—working with a local expert like me means you benefit from real data and genuine understanding of Windsor, Essex County, and Chatham neighborhoods.

What Buyers & Sellers Should Know

Sellers: Your home’s location and “move-ready” condition matter more than ever. Price realistically, declutter, and make sure you hire a local agent with a proven record and honest reviews.

Buyers: Be prepared for competitive offer dates. Aim for homes in great locations and get all your financial details confirmed early. Ask your agent about pre-inspections and expect honest advice on value and risks.

Families relocating or upsizing: Now is a strong time if you hold equity from past purchases. Remember, buy low, sell low—or vice-versa—so your next move needs to fit long-term needs.
