Detached home sales decline as apartment condominium sales rise
Significant
slowdowns in the detached and semi-detached market were nearly offset by sales
growth in the apartment and row sectors. This left July sales three per cent
lower than levels recorded last year. While this is the second month where
sales activity has slowed, total residential sales this month are still amongst
the strongest levels recorded in our market.
Rising
lending rates are causing shifts within the market and, as a result, new
listings for higher-priced product are on the rise relative to sales activity,”
said CREB® Chief Economist
Ann-Marie Lurie.
