Burlington Real Estate Market Update – Week of June 20, 2025 Strong Sales but Price Resistance Persists

by Michael Englund

🏘️ Burlington Real Estate Market Report – Week of June 20, 2025

 

Another week, another wave of price adjustments in Burlington — a sign that the market remains active, but not without friction.


1️⃣ Price Sensitivity Remains High

This week:

  • 65 price changes

  • 75 terminations

As we saw last week, sellers continue to adjust expectations. When we group price changes and terminations together (because most terminations are simply re-lists at lower prices), 140+ properties were repositioned — nearly as many as the 162 new listings.

The trend is clear: the market is rejecting overpricing.


2️⃣ New Listings vs. Sales Activity

  • 162 new listings

  • 62 firm sales

  • 51 conditional sales

  • Total sales = 113

  • Sales-to-new-listings ratio = 70%

This is a stronger absorption rate than Oakville this week (which was 46%) and is an improvement over Burlington's own numbers from last week.


3️⃣ 📊 Week-over-Week Comparison: Burlington

Metric June 13 June 20 Trend
New Listings 153 162 ⬆️ Up slightly
Firm Sales 55 62 ⬆️ Improved
Conditional Sales 48 51 ⬆️ Holding strong
Total Sales 103 113 ⬆️ Growing demand
Price Changes 60 65 ⬆️ More adjusting
Terminated Listings 67 75 ⬆️ More re-lists
Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio 67% 70% ⬆️ More absorption

🧭 Summary for Buyers and Sellers

Sellers:
The absorption rate is solid, but buyers are clearly pushing back on pricing. The homes that are selling quickly are the ones that are priced correctly from the outset — not the ones being re-listed after sitting.

Buyers:
Inventory continues to build slightly. You have options — especially on listings that have just been adjusted or re-listed. Pay attention to days on market and price history to spot leverage points.
