2026 Q1 (First Quarter)

by

Single-Family Home sales continued the uptrend that started in 2025 (after declines in 2023 and 2024). Condo sales have been in a downtrend since 2022. Land sales continue to fall as high building costs are making home building less attractive. Multi-family sales are nil through Q1 (same as last year), as investors for this type of property are impacted by higher interest rates. Commercial investments are likewise negatively affected by interest rates, as well as by concerns about the strength of the economy.

Third Quarter 2024

by

Through the first nine months of 2024, the number of sales of Single-family Homes, Condos and Land are all down compared to 2023 for the same time frame. The market deceleration that began in 2023 following the 2020-2022 super-hot market has continued. House prices that are 40% or more higher than than they were four years ago, interest rates 3-4% more than what people had got used to, preoccupation with the November elections, and concerns about the economy, increasing government debt and the tense geopolitical situation, have all combined to dampen interest in real estate.
