Sales Activity in September
Home sales in PEI ticked up again in September after a small drop last month. The market is still balanced and the average home price hasn’t really changed at all for the month.
Home sales were 5.4% above the five-year average and 4.5% below the 10-year average for September.
On a year-to-date basis, home sales totaled 1,645 units over the first nine months of the year. This was a gain of 7.9% from the same period in 2024.
New Listings September 2025
New listings as you can see were also on the average. The number of new listings increased by 7.6% from September 2024. There were 324 new residential listings in September 2025.
New listings were 7.9% above the five-year average and 13.2% above the 10-year average for the month of September.
Active Listings in September
Active residential listings numbered 1,319 units on the market at the end of September, a modest gain of 1.8% from the end of September 2024. Active listings haven't been this high in the month of September in more than five years.
We’re really back to pre-COVID levels of inventory on the Island which will contribute to stability and likely a bit of a drop in average home prices, though a new normal in that has likely been achieved.
Months of Inventory
Months of inventory numbered 6.9 at the end of September 2025, up from the 6.6 months recorded at the end of September 2024 and above the long-run average of 5.8 months for this time of year. The number of months of inventory is the number of months it would take to sell current inventories at the current rate of sales activity.
And finally, the average home price rose slightly by ~$2,000 from last month to $402,231. Year over year this is up 3.5%. A modest increase. See you next month where things will likely remain status quo! Steady on!
