Monthly Market Update - October, 2019 - UPDATED
Posted by Liv Real Estate on
Demand for real estate was up 16% from last October in the Greater Edmonton area last month - 1334 residential listings were reported sold in October - while supply dropped by 5%. If demand continues to increase, and supply continues to decrease on a year over year basis, we should see prices start to rise in the future - how long that is going to take is anyone's guess. The benchmark price decreased by 2.4% to $320,300 and the benchmark price for single-family homes was down 1.9% while apartment sytle condos saw the biggest drop at 5.3%.
The absorption rate slipped back into a balanced market in October, but it usually creeps up in November and December.

Demand for residential real estate was up 13% on a year over year basis in September in the greater Edmonton area, but the number of new listings also increased and just barely pushed us back into a buyer's market with 6.14 months of supply, after spending the past 5 months in a balanced market.
