Market Watch

Market Watch

February 3, 2010 -- Greater Toronto REALTORS® reported 4,986 transactions through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS®) in January 2010. This result represented a large increase over the 2,670 sales in January 2009 when the home sales were in a recessionary trough. Last month's sales were slightly higher than the January average in the five years preceding 2009.

"The GTA housing market has rebounded well from the lows in sales experienced at the beginning of 2009. Sales climbed back to healthy levels across the GTA because the cost of home ownership remained affordable in the Toronto area," said TREB President Tom Lebour. "Increasingly confident consumers moved to take advantage of affordable home ownership."

The average home selling price in January 2010 climbed 19 per cent to $409,058, compared to 343,632 in the same month last year.

"Expect strong annual growth rates for existing home sales and average price through the first quarter as we continue to make comparisons to the weak market conditions at the beginning of 2009," said Jason Mercer, TREB's Senior Manager of Market Analysis. "The rate of sales and price growth will be lower in the second half of 2010."

We thoroughly enjoyed the event and we are planning to do it again. Since we already have a winter event (Boxing Day Skating) we decided to have our Movie Day in the Spring ,so more can attend.  this year and from now on it will be  sometime after March break after Hockey and Ringette Seasons and Try-outs but before Summer holidays start up. Although we haven't decided which movie to do yet we are starting to plan for it. Stay Tuned for more information..........
