\nThere were 1170 property sales processed through the RAHB Multiple Listing Service\u00ae (MLS\u00ae) in the month of March, representing a 14.3 per cent decrease in sales from the same month last year.\u00a0\u00a0 RAHB also reported a 9.7 per cent decrease in listings compared to the same month last year.

\n\u201cIt\u2019s certainly a quieter spring than we\u2019ve had for the last three years,\u201d said RAHB CEO Ross Godsoe. \u00a0\u201cWe are seeing fewer listings and sales than average.\u201d<\/span>
\nSeasonally adjusted* sales of residential properties were 8.4 per cent lower than the same month last year, with the average sale price up 2.9 per cent for the month.\u00a0 Seasonally adjusted numbers of new listings were 4.2 per cent lower than the same month last year.<\/span>

\nThe average sale price is based on the total dollar volume of all residential properties sold. \u00a0Average sale price information can be useful in establishing long term trends, but should not be used as an indicator that specific properties have increased or decreased in value.<\/span>
\nThe average days on market increased from 40 days to 44 days in the freehold market and decreased from 44 days to 43 for condominiums.
\n<\/span>
\n\u201cWe seem to be moving toward a more balanced market,\u201d noted Godsoe.\u00a0 \u201cThat will give buyers a bit more breathing room when they are looking for a home.\u00a0 From what the numbers say, however, buyers won\u2019t be looking at paying less than they would have a year ago – only a few of our areas are showing average sale prices that have gone down. \u201d

\nResidential sales were down 13.1 per cent for the first quarter of the year when compared to the same period last year, while listings were down 6.3 per cent; average sale price rose 6.9 per cent for the quarter.<\/span>
