A reduction is counted only when DistrictIQ observed the asking price change while the listing was on our feed — cuts made before we first saw a listing are invisible to us, so these figures are a floor, not a census of every reduction in Hamilton. Price increases are excluded.

How these figures are measuredAsking data, defined.
Market figures are derived by DistrictIQ from active TRREB / PropTx MLS® listings and reflect list-price activity (not sold prices) as of the date shown. They are provided for general information only, are not an appraisal, financial or investment advice, and must not be relied upon for any transaction. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Every statistic on this page is computed by DistrictIQ from active For-Sale residential MLS® listings in Hamilton at the time shown — the asking market. A median asking price is the middle list price of those homes; it is not a sold price, not an appraisal, and typically differs from what homes ultimately sell for. Sold and leased research exists on DistrictIQ for registered users, under the access rules that data requires.
Days on market counts days since a listing’s source date on the feed; new this week means listed within the last 7 days. Medians are published only for groups of 5+ listings — smaller groups show a blank rather than a misleading number. Catchment rows count listings zoned inside each school’s board-published attendance boundary, resolved per listing, not by distance. Figures refresh with the listing feed and describe the market as of the date shown, not the date you read this.
