The key takeaways from the real estate data are:

• Peterborough has a higher volume and average sale price compared to Haliburton, both for waterfront and non-waterfront properties. This suggests stronger demand and a more active market in Peterborough.

• Waterfront properties have a higher average sale price than non-waterfront in both markets, indicating a premium for waterfront locations.

• Days on market for both areas are 30 days +

• Active listings remain very high in both Peterborough and Haliburton, suggesting an inventory-heavy market. However, Peterborough's non-waterfront is picking up steam with a high number of conditionally sold listings.

• Haliburton is commanding higher prices for waterfront properties compared to Peterborough waterfront, which could be attracting buyers seeking premium lakefront homes in cottage country.
