Dear Friend,

Toronto Real Estate Board members reported 7,187 residential sales through TREB’s MLS System in March 2019, almost the same amount as the 7,188 sales reported in March 2018. While the number of sales remains the same, the number of new listings, homes available for purchase, was down by 5.1 % year-over-year. This lack of inventory has created a shortage of homes available for sale, resulting in multiple offers and a price increase of an average of 5% since January of this year.
