Market Sentiment

Current list/sale ratio is under 3 months of inventory. The demand for housing is strong, while supply continues to shrink. There was a visible increase in the supply of condos over the past 3 months. This market segment will likely be the first to soften if there is a significant jump in the interest rates. Home buyers in this market segment are sensitive to interest rates and any tightening in mortgage financing rules.
