Well, I knew the market was hot, but I didn't think we'd see sales more than double what they were last year at this time - residential sales in the Greater Edmonton area were up 109% in March. The benchmark price for single-family homes is up 5.6% year over year and 1.7% over last month. It's a solid seller's market with less than three months of supply, even with new listings up 51% over last year. Compared to other places in North America where inventory is incredibly tight, the good news is that we actually have new inventory coming on the market.

387 sales last week, we typically see numbers like that in a very good May or June week. We haven't had that many sales in a March week for as long as I've been tracking weekly stats…

I was wondering if the cold weather might cool things off a bit... after three weeks of increasing sales we had a slight dip this week. We're still well ahead of the past few years though.…
