TREB RELEASES RESALE MARKET FIGURES AS REPORTED BY GTA REALTORS® Recapping the Market in 2019 and Looking Ahead to the Market in 2020 In 2019, sales growth resumed in the GTA, with 87,825 home sales reported to TREB’s MLS® System – an increase of 12.6 per cent compared to 2018. The number of new listings in 2019 was down 2.4 per cent, resulting in increased competition between buyers and an acceleration in price growth with the average price climbing to $819,319 for all home types combined. Looking Ahead to the Market in 2020 Home ownership demand will remain strong in 2020, as key demand drivers, including positive labour market conditions and low borrowing costs, remain in place. A greater number of existing residents and newcomers will purchase a home over the next year. With that said, the relationship between sales growth and the declining number of new listings will result in stronger annual rates of price growth over the next year. Read more on page 13 for insight on TREB’s outlook, including results from the most recent Ipsos Home Buyers Survey. GTA REALTORS® RELEASE JANUARY 2020 STATS TORONTO, February 6, 2020 - TRREB President Michael Collins announced that Greater Toronto Area REALTORS® reported 4,581 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in January 2020 – up by 15.4 per cent compared to January 2019. The average selling price in January was up by 12.3 per cent, driven by the detached and condominium apartment segments in the City of Toronto. On a preliminary seasonally adjusted basis, sales were up by 4.8 per cent compared to December 2019. “We started 2020 where 2019 left off, with very strong growth in the number of sales up against a continued dip in the number of new and available listings. Tighter market conditions compared to a year ago resulted in much stronger growth in average selling prices. Steady population growth, low unemployment and low borrowing costs continued to underpin substantial competition between buyers in all major market segments,” said Mr. Collins. The MLS® HPI Composite Benchmark price was up by 8.7 per cent compared to January 2019 – the highest annual rate of growth for the Benchmark since October 2017. The condominium apartment market segment continued to lead the way in terms of MLS HPI® price growth, but all home types experienced price growth above seven per cent when considering the TRREB market area as a whole. “A key difference in the price growth story in January 2020 compared to January 2019 was in the low-rise market segments, particularly with regard to detached houses. A year seems to have made a big difference. It is clear that many buyers who were on the sidelines due to the OSFI stress test are moving back into the market, driving very strong year-over-year sales growth in the detached segment. Strong sales up against a constrained supply continues to result in an accelerating rate of price growth,” said Jason Mercer, TRREB’s Director of Market Analysis and Service Channels. All the Best!

Our market continues to perform very well, prices are up and sales volumes are good. There are a good number of homes currently for sale in Mississauga, we need good homes to sell! It will be interesting to see what the next few months bring as there seems to be a large amount of demand for properties in Mississauga and the GTA. I predict that it will be a very strong market with more properties coming on the market in the next month or two giving a slightly larger selection to buyers. Average prices will likely increase 2-5% over the next 2 months. Volume of sales will also increase every month in the next quarter, if you are thinking of buying now is the time to do it!. Given our very fine weather this winter that is expected to continue for the next while, my observations for the Mississauga marketplace is that we continue to see that prices continue to be strong and increase quite substantially in many areas over the next few months. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
