Market Update
August
Sets New Record with 8059 Sales
September 6, 2007 - August 2007 became the fifth record-setting month in a row, with 8059 sales reported by TREB Members throughout the Greater Toronto Area, TREB President Donald Bentley announced today. "This figure is up 15% over August of last year, and up 7% cent over the 7498 sales recorded during the same month in 2005, which was the previous "best ever" performance for the month of August," said the President. "Summer of 2007 has been hands-down the most active holiday season for the resale market in the history of the Toronto Real Estate Board."
While sales roared ahead, prices remained affordable in August, with a recorded average of $361,890. This figure is up 7% over the $338,192 recorded during August of 2006. "While the last decade has seen five record breaking years, and a good possibility of a sixth in 2007, year-over-year prices increases have remained in the single digits. This kind of activity is sustainable for a long time."
