Demand for all types of residential homes was evident in the results, with average prices setting an all-time record, with multiple offer scenarios becoming commonplace at most price levels.


Price


Prices in Durham increased by 17.3% since July 2019 and jumped 3.5% since June 2020. They are now at a high for the year, and all-time.


The latest market statistics show the average Durham property at $709,640  - up from last month's 685,655 by $23,985 (+3.5%).

Inventory


Active listings in Durham Region were 1185 at the time this report was compiled. That is a 45.5% decrease from last year and a 7.6% decrease from June. 


Currently, there are 1.4 months of inventory (trend figure, per TRREB - current figures are much lower), once again increasing buyer competition at properties at virtually all price points.



Demand


Sales volume in Durham Region increased 52.1% from last year with 1583 units sold versus 1041 last July. It was up from June by 23.6%. This is another all-time record for Durham.


The time a property takes to sell is called DOM or days on market. It was 16 in July.


Another indicator of demand is sale price compared to list price. It was 102% in Durham in June, again showing very strong levels of buyer demand, as the average property sold for more than list price.


These factors combined are a good barometer for sellers, as it shows that not only is current inventory moving at a rapid pace, but it is also selling at a price that is very close to or over asking.

Buyers will now find multiple offer scenarios increasingly common right now, at least in south Durham communities and lower price points. They are highly advised to get prepared - have their mortgage preapproval ready before looking at homes, and be prepared to view homes via photos and virtual tours as soon as they reach the market. Speak with your agent to discuss the process to move forward while being respectful of COVID-19 physical distancing and spread avoidance protocols.


Sellers should be considering getting on the market now or soon, and to work with their agent to implement mitigation protocols for COVID-19. Many brokerages are now using tools to enable showings virtually, via video call, as well as conducting client meetings and signings remotely, using digital tools.
