AUG 27 – Decline In New Inventory

September 1, 2022

After weeks of having more new listings than last year, last week in Durham Region had 14% less new inventory than same time a year ago and 85 less new listings than the week earlier.

Average sales price for the region hovers around 880K, while the number of sales was down by 33 comparing with the previous week.

Average asking price was higher by about 8% than same time last year, meanwhile average sales price was down by 1.6%.

We need more listings to truly feel a more balanced market. Multiple offers still happen on many properties that are priced right and a decline in new properties available for sale may further stimulate more buyer competition.

April 30 – Changes In Durham Region’s Real Estate Market

May 17, 2022

The changes in the real estate market in Durham Region are evident in the last week of April. The average price for all property types in Clarington, Oshawa, Ajax, Whitby, Pickering, Brock, Scugog, and Uxbridge, was down by 10K from the week before and by about 80K since the last week of March.

The questions that are popping up lately are: does this mean the prices will continue to change? Is the market going to drop?

Are Homes Still Selling With Multiple Bids in Durham region?

Firstly, whether or not a home will receive multiple offers depends on the marketing and pricing strategy. Secondly, it also depends on the buyer demand. However if a home was listed at $1, I am sure it will receive a lot of attention even in a strong buyer’s market. While we do see a change in pricing and buyer trends, many properties still sell with multiple bids, especially entry level homes.

Seller’s Market vs Buyer’s Market

Are we going to have a buyer’s market? BUYER’S MARKET is defined as having 6 MONTHS or more of inventory. That means that if no new homes are listed on the market it will take about 6 MONTHS or more to sell all the existing listings. BALANCED MARKET is when we have about 4-6 MONTHS of inventory. Right now we have about 2-3 WEEKS of inventory in Durham Region. On average it takes about 8 days for a property to sell. As a result, the reality is that we are very far from having a balanced market. The changes in real estate market in Durham region are here however, by definition we are still in a strong seller’s market, it just feels different comparing with earlier this year.
