“The trends this Fall are not reminiscent of what we would normally see – with October activity slowing slightly compared to September – and this is due to 2020 not being a typical year. As a result of COVID-19, we experienced a delayed Spring market and a surge in record activity over the Summer months when the province began to reopen. As a result of this unstable year, active listings at the end of each month are some of the lowest we’ve seen, exacerbating low inventory levels and continuing to drive average price.” – RAHB President Kathy Della-Nebbia
