TORONTO REGIONAL REAL ESTATE REPORT DATED 4 JULY 2024 GTA REALTORS® reported 6,213 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in June 2024 – a 16.4 per cent decline compared to 7,429 sales reported in June 2023. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 17,964 – up by 12.3 per cent year-over-year. The average selling price of $1,162,167 was down by 1.6% over the June 2023 result of $1,181,002. “The Bank of Canada’s rate cut last month provided some initial relief for homeowners and home buyers. However, the June sales result suggests that most home buyers will require multiple rate cuts before they move off the sidelines. This follows Ipsos polling for TRREB, which suggested that cumulative rate cuts of 100 basis points or more are required to boost home sales by any significant amount,” said TRREB President Jennifer Pearce. Canadian Unemployment Rate Rose to 6.4% In June : The June result was the highest reading for the unemployment rate since January 2022 when it was 6.5 per cent. Leslie Preston, managing director and senior economist at TD Bank, said TD was still forecasting that the Bank of Canada would wait until September before cutting again, but noted there are two key data points to come before the July rate decision: the central bank’s quarterly business outlook survey and the June inflation report. |

“The GTA housing market is currently well-supplied. Recent home buyers have benefitted from substantial choice and therefore negotiating power on price. Moving forward, as sales pick up alongside lower borrowing costs, elevated inventory levels will help mitigate against a quick run-up in selling prices,” said TRREB Chief Market Analyst Jason Mercer. ‘Nothing is moving’: GTA sales of newly built homes plummet in May A new report from Altus Group analysts and the Building Industry and Land Development Association shows new home inventory still rising, with an increase of 20,427 new homes on the market in May — 16,845 condos and 3,582 single-family homes. At the recent pace of sales, the report estimates it’s enough inventory to last for 14.5 months. But the market is starting to shift, Sherwood said, forecasting a bigger change ahead. “We’re already starting to see a slowdown in housing starts, but that’s going to accelerate precipitously,” BILD executive Justin Sherwood said. |
