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

  • Ajax average selling price fell 3.9% to $871,853 versus July 2026.
  • Ajax sales dropped 35.1% to 72 versus July 2026.
  • Ajax reads differently on the two balance measures — balanced conditions at 41.9% sales-to-new-listings, but a seller's market at 4.0 months of inventory. They measure different things, so the split is worth noting.

MLS® HPI composite benchmark

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.
