REALTORS® forecast local housing growth in steady market Jan 2014

Wednesday, January 8th, 2014

Forecast for 2014:  value of MLS® sales in 2014 will increase by about 3% for the year after sales of $8 billion in 2013. This is based on an overall increase in the number of homes sold and increased prices.

The sale of single family homes in Edmonton will be static, at about 10,500. The number of sales of condo, duplex and rowhouse sales will increase by 2.5% throughout the region as these properties become the de facto entry point for first time buyers.

Prices, as usual, will fluctuate through the year but the 12-month average price for a single family detached property is anticipated to increase about 3%. Condominium property average prices are projected to increase about 2% over the year.

Market growth is always good for the seller who can expect to see a capital gain on their property. But it is also reassuring for the buyer who can expect steady growth upon entering the market.

YTD Average Change At year end
SFD Prices (CMA) $409,824 Up 3% $422,000
Condo prices (CMA) $241,377 Up 2% $246,000
All Residential Prices $349,202 Up 2.5% $357,932
Rural/Recreational $548 million Sustaining $550 million
Commercial sales $225 million Stronger $250 million
Total MLS® Sales 22,932 Up 2% 23,390
Value of Total MLS® Sales $8 billion Increase $8.6 billion

Local housing sales ease up in May

Tuesday, June 18th, 2013

Edmonton, June 4, 2013: Housing sales activity in the Edmonton Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) slowed in May. Housing sales dropped 10% when compared to May 2012. Sales of single family detached homes (SFD) were down 14.4% Y/Y and duplex/rowhouse sales were down 20.3%. In contrast, during the same period, condo sales were up 4.9% compared to May 2012.
There is a lot of activity in the real estate market at this time of year but some buyers are having difficulty finding their perfect home. While inventory levels are rising they are still below traditional norms and there is a shortage of attractive SFD inventory available at the lower priced end of the market. That has held some buyers back. First time buyers may have had to buy in the condo market where they can still find a home in their price range.
There were an estimated 1,169 SFD sales in May (based on 1,082 reported sales) through the MLS® System with 512 estimated sales of condos (474 reported) for total residential sales of 1,824 units (on reported sales of 1,689). Sales figures in the month are estimated to account for late reported sales and to ensure accurate comparison to prior period sales figures.
Listing activity picked up in May with 1,969 SFDs listed (up 1.3% Y/Y) and 963 condos (up 0.3% Y/Y) for an overall total of 3,188 residential properties coming into the MLS® System in May. At the end of May there were 6,028 residential properties available; up from 5,294 from last month. There were an additional 1,569 rural properties in the MLS® System inventory.
The demand for housing has buoyed up prices in the Edmonton area. The all-residential average price was up 2.4% from April and up 1.3% from a year ago at $356,807. The average price of SFDs was up 3.9% to $418,110 in May but condo prices dropped 2.4% from a month ago to $237,664. The condo average price is down 3.97% in May compared to last year.
Increased activity at the higher end of the market drove up the average price of SFDs. At the same time, the wide variety and number of options in the condominium sector continued to exert downward pressure on the average price of condominiums. There is housing available for everyone at every price point but buyers may have to adjust their expectations to be able to buy right now. T
The average days-on-market for residential property was down to 45 days and the sales-to-listing ratio was 53% in May.
