Muskoka Home Sales
September 2023: Canada home sales slid for the second month in a row, falling 4.1% month-over-month, according to the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), as higher borrowing costs continue to impact market activity. Economists predicted that sales would soften following the Bank of Canada’s rate hikes this summer, which raised the benchmark interest rate to 5%, a 22-year high, pushing some prospective buyers back to the sidelines, while remaining buyers face significantly higher monthly payments.
New Listings increased 30.9 percent for Waterfront homes and 17.0 percent for Non-Waterfront homes. Sales increased 16.8 percent for Waterfront homes but decreased 5.5 percent for Non-Waterfront homes. Inventory increased 59.7 percent for Waterfront homes and 26.8 percent for Non-Waterfront homes.
Median Sales Price decreased 2.7 percent to $860,000 for Waterfront homes and 2.4 percent to $610,000 for Non-Waterfront homes. Days on Market increased 25.6 percent for Waterfront homes and 13.5 percent for Non-Waterfront homes. Months Supply of Inventory increased 91.1 percent for Waterfront homes and 50.0 percent for Non-Waterfront homes.
As sales slow, new listings continue to rise, climbing 0.8% month-over-month, according to CREA. New listings are up a cumulative 24% since March, after reaching a two-decade low at the beginning of the year. Although buyers may have additional options in their home search, inventory remains low by historical standards, with only 3.4 months’ supply heading into September. Supply and demand imbalances have put upward pressure on sales prices, which have continued to rise nationally, with the MLS Home Price Index (HPI) increasing 0.4% as of last measure.
