A Review of 2018
Oakville Clearview House Prices
Location:
People often ask me – “what about that area near the Ford plant?”, usually not knowing it by name. This is the Oakville, Ontario neighborhood of Clearview, a somewhat under appreciated area on the eastern edge of the city. Over the years awareness of real estate in the Clearview area has increased as people began to understand its excellent location, quality housing stock, great schools, and relative affordability vis a vis other areas of Oakville. Although the Ford plant is a major employer in the region, the homes of Clearview are definitely in the white collar, executive category. As 2019 begins, we can take a look at last year’s real estate activity in Clearview, and check prices for homes sold in the area – the homes that were placed for sale on the MLS, and how much they sold for. There were 48 firm sales in Clearview during 2018, or approximately 2% per cent of the 2200 homes located there. Sales were recorded for all the various types of properties to be found in the district: detached homes, semi-detached homes, freehold townhouses, and linked homes (foundations linked below ground). There are currently no condominiums of any kind to be found in Clearview.
Of the 48 firm sales, there were 35 detached homes sold, 5 semi-detached homes, 4 freehold townhouses, and 4 linked properties.
MLS Sales by Type
| Type | Count |
| Detached | 35 |
| Semi-Detached | 5 |
| Freehold Townhouse | 4 |
| Link | 4 |
Median selling price for all types was $1,140,000, with the lowest sale of a freehold townhouse coming in at $620,000 and the highest sale of a detached home reaching over $1.42 million dollars.
The market remained relatively healthy throughout the year, with the average days on the market being 32 days (the time it took to sell). That’s a number which is good for the type of homes found in Clearview – more expensive, executive type homes. The average sale to list percentage was 97% (the average home sold for three per cent under the asking price). All figures supplied by the Toronto Real Estate Board.

Oakville Price Appreciation:
2018 data shows a drop in prices of 10% per cent for all property types for Oakville Clearview, which effectively erases gains added in 2017. Here are the 2018 median prices for this great Ontario neighborhood:
Detached Homes = $1,200,000
Semi-detached homes = $763,000
Freehold Townhouse = $722,750
Link properties = $773,400
Detached Homes Prices:
During 2018, the median price of detached homes in Clearview dropped by approximately 10% per cent. This is a noticeable drop which is directly attributable to government measures to cool the market. In spite of the market change, it still seems evident that Clearview has become a sought after location for home buyers, due to its fine housing stock by quality builders, nearness to Toronto and Mississauga, and good commuting options via the QEW and nearby Clarkson GO train station. We also believe that the addition of James W. Hill Public Elementary School, after a wait of many years, has added to the attractiveness of the neighborhood for families with children.
To give some idea of the change in the market, here are comparison numbers for the median selling price of detached homes in the Oakville Clearview area, from 2009 to 2018:
2009 = $509,000
2010 = $547,000 (7% increase)
2011 = $590,000 (8% increase)
2012 = $670,000 (13.9% increase)
2013 = $735,000 (9.7% increase)
2014 = $814,000 (10.7% increase)
2015 = $859,117 (5.5% increase)
