“RAHB witnessed a rare occurrence for August 2022 as the number of sales increased and the number of new listings to market dropped from July 2022. As this is not a typical pattern for August, this may suggest that sales activity may have bottomed out in July. Meanwhile, RAHB is again seeing certain areas and property categories performing better than others. For example, Haldimand County experienced an overall residential average sale price increase of 3.9 per cent, and the townhouse segment in Burlington saw an average sale price bump of 5.6 per cent. With these variations in mind, contacting a RAHB REALTOR® before you buy or sell remains a key element to help you navigate the local market.” - RAHB President Lou Piriano.
