The last two are TRREB's own trend-smoothed figures, kept separate from the SNLR and months of inventory computed here from this month's raw counts. They are not the same measure.

In short

  • Burlington average selling price edged down 2.8% to $1,020,937 versus July 2026.
  • Burlington sales dropped 12.7% to 193 versus July 2026.
  • Burlington reads differently on the two balance measures — balanced conditions at 51.7% sales-to-new-listings, but a seller's market at 3.7 months of inventory. They measure different things, so the split is worth noting.

Days-on-market shows a break at January 2020. TRREB published a single average DOM before then and split it into LDOM and PDOM afterwards; they are different measurements, so the chart shows the change rather than joining them into one line.
