What does each column mean?
- Sales:
- How many eligible home sales the numbers are based on — more sales = more reliable numbers.
- Median market time:
- How many days the typical home takes to sell, counting from when it first hit the market (relistings included). Fewer days = hotter market.
- Sold ≤ 30 days:
- Share of homes that sold within a month. Higher = hotter market.
- At/above asking:
- Share of homes that sold for the original asking price or more. Higher = sellers are getting their price (hotter market).
- Sale ÷ original ask:
- The typical sale price as a share of the first asking price. 100% = homes sell for exactly what sellers first asked; below 100% = buyers pay less.
- Reduction rate:
- Share of sold homes that cut their asking price at least once before selling. Higher = sellers are having to lower expectations (cooler market).
- Median discount:
- When a home does sell below asking, this is the typical discount buyers got.

City History — Mississippi Mills
A quarterly, plain-English view of how quickly Mississippi Mills homes sold (detached), how often they sold at or above the original asking price, how often sellers reduced their price, and how many sales were included.
View quarter
2026 Q3 is still in progress: figures can change as additional sales are recorded, until the quarter is finalized.
What changed in 2026 Q3
The typical sale took 30 days, 1 day longer than 2026 Q2. The at/above-asking share fell to 11.5%, while price reductions became less common.

2. Pricing behaviour
The two pricing measures are split into separate charts because their ranges are very different.
Sold at or above original asking
Share of sales that met or beat the seller's starting price.
Received a price reduction
Share of sold homes with at least one asking-price cut.
These answer different questions — a reduction rate is not the opposite of an at-or-above-asking rate, so read each on its own. Note the two charts use different scales.
Sale ÷ original ask100% = matched the original asking price
2026 Q3: 96.5% — the typical sale closed 3.5% below the original asking price.
Compared with 2026 Q2, the at/above-asking share moved −21.0 pts and the reduction rate moved −13.5 pts.
3. Total homes sold
Sales volume shown separately so it can't distort or compete with price and market-time metrics.
A larger sample usually produces a more stable market reading. Quarters marked * are below the disclosure floor and shown for context only.
For buyers
In 2026 Q3, 11.5% of sold homes had a price reduction, while 11.5% still sold at or above the original asking price. Read both together rather than treating either as the whole picture.
For sellers
The typical sold home took 30 days to sell, and the typical sale-to-original-ask ratio was 96.5%. That describes completed sales in this period; it doesn't guarantee the same result for an individual property.
2026 Q3 summary for Mississippi Mills: 26 homes sold; typical selling time 30 days; 11.5 percent sold at or above original asking; 11.5 percent received a price reduction; sale-to-original-ask ratio 96.5 percent.

Methodology & Notes
Source. MLS sold records for Ontario resale residential properties (detached, semi-detached, freehold and condo townhouses, condo apartments), refreshed nightly. Sales are dated by the purchase-contract date.
Market time. The MLS feed does not provide a reliable cumulative days-on-market figure, so we compute our own: when a home is relisted (same address and unit, prior listing ending within a validated window), the listings are chained together and time on market accumulates across the whole chain.
Asking-price ratios. Sale-to-original-list uses the first asking price of the relisting chain — a home relisted at a lower price cannot flatter the ratio. Sale-to-final-list uses the sold listing's last asking price.
Price reductions. Reduction metrics count observed price-decrease events; the total reduction sums all cuts against the original asking price (increases are ignored). Full event capture began in August 2026 — periods starting earlier are flagged as partial and understate reduction activity.
Disclosure floors. City figures require at least 50 eligible sales for the period (25 per property-type cut). Cells below the floor are shown as “insufficient data” rather than ranked — small samples produce unstable, misleading rates.
Coverage. Figures are based on TRREB (Toronto Regional Real Estate Board) transactions via the PropTx feed. Coverage of the Greater Toronto Area is comprehensive; outside the GTA, only sales involving a TRREB member are captured, so coverage is partial and cities below the disclosure floor are shown but not ranked. The series starts in Q3 2025; the feed's historical coverage before that is incomplete and would misstate the market. Toronto MLS districts are merged into Toronto, and London's feed subdivisions are merged into London.
Frozen periods. Completed quarters and years are finalized and frozen: their published values never change silently. Corrections are released as visible revisions with a reason.
Privacy & rights. Everything published here is an aggregate that meets the disclosure floors above. Individual sold prices are not shown on this page; listing-level sold data is available on PropertyMesh behind a free sign-in, per MLS data rules.
Citing this data. Free to cite with attribution to PropertyMesh (“PropertyMesh Ontario Market Heat Index”). Each archived period has a CSV download with the full aggregate table, methodology version and usage notes. For questions or custom cuts, contact us.
