Rates are a major part of what is keeping the housing market from its regular cyclical declines. Borrowers need to understand that the sub-three percent rates are an indicator of major issues in the general economy, and no way reflect a normal lending environment. We will see 5-6% rates in the future as we return to a more positive economic outlook. Until then, take advantage of this borrowing opportunity if you are in the market for a new home.

Sharp drop in sales during last six months of 2012 led to small month-over-month price declines in many cities

February 19, 2013 -- Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® reported 2,823 sales through the TorontoMLS system during the first 14 days of February. This result represented a decline of 8.3 per cent compared to the same period in 2012.

“The number of transactions was lower for most home types in comparison to last year, but so too was the number of new listings. This means that market conditions remained quite tight, especially for low-rise home types. The result was continued price growth over last year,” said Toronto Real Estate Board President Ann Hannah.

The average selling price for TorontoMLS transactions in the first half of February was $509,061 – up by four per cent in comparison to the same time last year.

“The annual rate of price growth so far in February has been in line with expectations for 2013. The average selling price in the GTA will continue to grow this year but at a slower pace compared to 2012. The basis of this price growth will be the low-rise segment of the market, for which months of inventory and therefore choice for buyers remains very low,” said Jason Mercer, TREB’s Senior Manager of Market Analysis.
