Windsor-Essex Real Estate Weekly Update

This is a fact-based snapshot of residential activity in the Windsor-Essex real estate market for the week of May 26 to June 1, 2026. It reflects 108 properties that closed during that seven-day window. Because it covers a single week, the figures describe recent activity rather than a longer-term trend.

The numbers below are drawn directly from sold MLS data for the period. No individual properties, addresses, or transactions are identified.

Windsor-Essex home sales at a glance

Across the week, Windsor-Essex home sales totaled 108 closed residential properties. Pricing spanned a wide range, with the lowest sale recorded at $188,000 and the highest at $2,460,000. That spread is why the median and the average diverge.

The median sale price of $477,500 is the more representative figure for a typical transaction this week. The average of roughly $553,900 sits higher because a smaller number of high-value sales pull it upward. When prices range from under $200,000 to nearly $2.5 million, the median gives a clearer picture of the middle of the market.

Did homes sell above or below asking?

One of the clearer signals in this week's data is the split between sales above and below the original list price. Of the 108 closed transactions, more sold under list than over it.

The remaining 4 percent of homes sold at exactly their list price. A median sale-to-list ratio of 98.6 percent indicates that, for the typical home, the final price landed slightly under the asking figure. This reflects a market where buyers and sellers met close to list, rather than one defined by widespread bidding wars.

How sales broke down by price band

Distribution across price ranges shows where the bulk of activity sat. The $500,000 to $700,000 band saw the most closings, followed closely by the $300,000 to $400,000 band. Properties above $700,000 still accounted for a meaningful share of the week.

Roughly half of all sales fell between $300,000 and $700,000. The combination of steady mid-range activity and a 20 percent share above $700,000 is what keeps the average price above the median for the week.

What the week tells us

Taken together, the data points to a Windsor-Essex housing market that remained active across a broad range of price points during the last week of May into early June. The typical home sold close to its asking price, the majority of transactions settled just below list, and activity was spread fairly evenly through the mid-market while still seeing consistent movement at the higher end.

These figures are a starting point. Conditions vary considerably by community and by property type, and a number that looks one way region-wide can look quite different street by street.
