Durham Region Sales Report - October 2018

Durham Region Real Estate Prices 2018


Durham Region's real estate market entered the cooler autumn season with balanced results. Sales volume in the region was up over September in many areas, and prices showed mixed results in different communities.

Price

Prices in Durham Region increased 2.3% over October of 2017 and 0.3% since September 2018. The slight gain from September is in line with the overall TREB market, which posted a 1.3% gain.


Average prices for all of TREB were 807,340 showing an annual gain of 3.5%, as shown in the above chart (red line). The seasonal winter and summer dips are clearly visible in the TREB price line.


Durham Region (blue line) prices have also increased yearly, though with much less volatility than the TREB numbers showed in the seasonal trends.


The Toronto Real Estate Board's (TREB) latest market statistics show the average Durham property at $588,968  - up from last month's 587,009 by $1,959 (0.3%).

Inventory


Active listings in Durham Region were 2082 in October. That is an 8.9% increase over last year, but a drop of 4.1% from September. This figure may help to drive prices higher than normal for November when prices normally start to show a seasonal drop.


It also contrasts with the overall TREB market, which had a 3.8% increase in active listings from September.


Toronto's active listings fell 5.8% from September, so they may also see higher pricing in November than typical.


Demand

Sales volume in Durham Region dropped 5.6% from last year with 798 units sold versus 845 last October. It was up over this September by 3.2%. Most communities in Durham showed a monthly increase, except Ajax, which was down 7.5% since September.


The time a property takes to sell is called DOM or days on market. It was 24 in October, showing a good pace to sales.


Another indicator of demand is sale price compared to list price. It was 98% in Durham in October, again showing good levels of demand.


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