Sales To Active Listings Ratio
The sales to active listings ratio for all property types experienced some significant changes in January, leading townhomes and condos from a buyer’s market (or close to) back to a more balanced market. Detached homes on the other hand officially entered into a buyers market.
HPI Benchmark Prices
The Home Price Index (HPI) measures the price of a benchmark, or typical, property in a given market and is not influenced by the change in composition of properties sold, which can fluctuate quite significantly from month to month. As a result, this metric is a more pure and stable representation of market price change than average or median prices.
Sales • New Listings • Active Listings
There was a 150% month-over-month increase in newly listed properties to start the new year, which isa positive trend. However, new listings were still well below levels from the same period in 2022. Decreasing sales continued in January, following the same trend as we experienced late last year.
