This week on The Everything Real Estate Show, Cody Kraus breaks down the Windsor-Essex real estate market, reviewing 2025 trends and looking ahead to 2026. He covers local listings, sales, and average prices, explaining why prices have stayed steady despite rising supply and shifting demand.

Cody compares Windsor-Essex to Toronto and Vancouver, where condo oversupply is driving price declines, and dives into the role of interest rates, consumer confidence, and new construction, especially purpose-built rentals. He also highlights historical trends, showing long-term price growth even as sales volumes fluctuate.

On the industry side, Cody touches on major North American mergers, including Compass acquiring Anywhere Real Estate and Rocket Companies acquiring Redfin, and discusses how landlords exiting the market due to Landlord and Tenant Board changes is affecting inventory locally.

Looking ahead, Cody shares his 2026 predictions: flat prices and sales in Windsor-Essex, rents trending lower, stable interest rates, and a gradual decline in active realtors. He wraps up with practical tips for navigating the market and staying focused on local opportunities.
