Wahi’s most viewed listings for condos and houses in 2023.
The Tri-Cities of Cambridge, Kitchener and Waterloo have a lot to offer when it comes to finding a place to call home — two prestigious universities, a thriving tech industry, the largest annual Oktoberfest celebration outside of Germany, and it’s one of the safest places to live.
Here’s a round-up of last year’s top-three most viewed listings for condos and houses in the Waterloo region.
Wahi’s Most-Viewed Condo Listings
1. Brand New
Neighbourhood: Grand River South, Kitchener
A stone’s throw from shopping, restaurants, and public transit, this brand spanking new 1 bedroom, 1 bath 680 square-foot condo ranked #1 for the most number of views. Given its modern kitchen, clean lines and spacious balcony, it’s no wonder it sold for above the list price.
2. Awesome Amenities
Neighbourhood: City Commercial Core, Kitchener
This open concept, 1+den 500 square-foot condo close to the area’s two universities received a lot of interest from those on the Wahi platform. Perhaps it was the modern finishes, stone countertops and stainless steel appliances…or maybe it was the building’s rooftop terrace, yoga room, community garden and dog park that warranted so many views.
3. Best Value
Neighbourhood: Vanier, Kitchener
Described by the listing agent as “the best value condo in town,” this renovated 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo sold for a whopping 34% above asking. Close to pretty much everything, the condo is equipped with new flooring, new appliances and a roomy balcony.

Wahi’s Most-Viewed House Listings
1. Community Living
Neighbourhood: Beaver Creek Meadows, Waterloo
While this listing was terminated, it was still our number-one viewed house for sale in 2023. Affordability was a theme when it comes to the Wahi listings with the highest view counts — particularly for detached homes in RV parks, like this one.
2. A Brick Beauty
Neighbourhood: East Hespeler, Cambridge
Coming in second for most popular listings is this 5 bedroom, 3+1 bath detached house complete with a fully fenced backyard, a modern and spacious kitchen, separate formal dining room, and two-car garage. It’s plain to see why this Cambridge home sold for $115K above the list price.
3. Affordable Housing
580 BEAVER CREEK RD. #193
Neighbourhood: Beaver Creek Meadows, Waterloo
Also delisted, this mobile home is situated in the same RV park as our most-viewed house on the Wahi site. Close to Laurel Creek Convservation Area, the house’s lower price point makes it appealing to many homebuyers looking for affordable housing.
