Ottawa Real Estate Recap for May 2011

Posted on: June 9, 2011

Unit sales were down slightly by -1.6% compared to May 2010.  (Last year's market peaked in April because of the impact of the introduction of HST in June)  The average sale price was +5.6% over May 2010 to $352,347.  New listings remained low which led to a more modest increase in the listing inventory.  The sale to inventory ratio increased slightly to 28% indicating that we are just into seller market territory.  The average days on market was 31 days and the absorption rate is at 5.4 months..

April Real Estate Update

Posted on: May 6, 2011

Unit sales of 1,536 was a decrease of 16.5% in April 2011 compared to April 2010 while the average sale price increased by 5% to $351,226. The number of new listings at 2,810 was 6.5% less than last April. As a result listing inventory grew by only 10% over March 2011.  Because sellers held off putting their properties on the market in April, the sales to inventory ratio increased to 27% pushing the market just into a Seller's Market.  The average selling time was 30 days.

December Real Estate Recap

Unit sales in December were 10% lower than in December 2009 yet sales for the year were down by only 3% from the record year in 2009.  The average sale price continued to increase to $324,556 a year over year increase of 8%.  The average selling time was 39 days.  The number of new listings and the listing inventory both increased.  With more listings on the market the inventory to sales ratio dropped to 18%.  This is still in balanced market territory but is getting closer to a buyer's market. We have now been in a balanced market for six months.
