The news across the nation this week was that the Bank of Canada came through on it’s word and held interest rates at 4.5%. This is the first time in a year that the Bank of Canada took it’s foot off the break and gave all variable rate mortgage holders a sigh of relief. As interest rates begin to stabilize and the bank of Canada moves to the sidelines, it’ll be interesting to see how the market responds. Typically this time of the year we have a lot more listings but with current inventory levels and really low levels, we’re already seeing the return of multiple offers for property that is priced to market.
February saw prices rise for the first time month over month and with median prices already up another $22,000 this month, and up $82,000 in the last 9 weeks alone!! We are starting to see signs that the market is becoming much more active. Higher levels of activity will lead to higher levels of consumer confidence which we believe will continue to build throughout the year. Toronto for example saw an 8.5% increase in month over month sales – the highest in 6 months and what’s very important to note is that 40% of those sales last month were ABOVE the asking price! This is largely due to a lack of inventory and Vancouver was similar showing 20% of its deals selling over the asking price. All of this pointing to a 2nd month in a row of a sellers market.
We’ve had a number of sellers on the sidelines waiting to hear about this announcement. Many are now going to be listing this month as the data points to a much stronger sale price than over the last few months. If you’re considering listing your property and want to know if the market is trending in your favour, just reach out to the contact info below.
