We don't often see sales decline in April compared to March, and I don't think we've ever seen them drop to back down to December/January levels, but that's what COVID-19 has done to the real estate market in Edmonton. Perhaps some are surprised to see any homes sold at all; we and many in the industry were projecting sales to drop between 50-65% compared to last year, which is exactly what happened. 383 sales were reported in Edmonton in April, down 50% from last April.

I will update this post when the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton releases its monthly report on the market…
