Here is what the data shows for Newcastle and Durham Region right now.
Here is what the data shows right now, broken down by property type. Detached and All Types reflect Port of Newcastle directly; Semi-Detached, Towns and Condos are shown at the Clarington Region level, where sale volume is high enough to report reliably.
Durham Region is not one market. Here is how three key segments compare this month — starting with Port of Newcastle on its own.
A community Brandon knows well. Its lake-adjacent setting, limited detached inventory, and continued interest from families across the 905 help shape local market activity.
Detached homes across Clarington. These properties move more slowly but hold their value well over time.
Condominiums and townhomes across Durham Region. More days on market than detached but still active for first-time buyers and investors watching carrying costs carefully.
The broader Clarington market provides context for the hyper-local Port of Newcastle results above.
Months of inventory is calculated as active listings divided by monthly sales. Lower inventory favours sellers; higher inventory gives buyers more choice.

Summer typically brings more inventory and a bit less urgency. Buyers who held off during the spring now have more choices than they did four months ago, and there is slightly more room to negotiate. For sellers in Newcastle and Port of Newcastle specifically, the market is still active but pricing precision matters more than it did at the spring peak. Overpriced listings are sitting. Homes priced in line with the current median are moving in two to three weeks.
The 12-month trend above tells the bigger story. This market pulled back in the fall and winter of 2025, recovered steadily through the first quarter of 2026, and is now entering a predictable summer plateau. That pattern is consistent with what Durham Region has done historically. The buyers and sellers who pay attention to this are the ones who make better decisions at the table.
