Sales and listings stats are attached as of June 15, 2019. The debate continues on what was driving the market and who’s really in all those homes out there. What we do know is supply is continuing to be an issue in the current market with less listings coming on market so far in June than the midpoint of May this year (down 17%) and June last year (down 20%). It would appear we are looking at the peak of Active Listings for the spring market as we’ll be seeing less new listings come out during the summer months. The incidents of multiple offers are increasing as buyers are seeing that new listings priced in today’s market are moving quicker than they have in the last year.  While sales will be below the 10 year average for June, likely to finish at about 2,100 homes sold, the number of new listings are likely to be at 5,000 which would be 12 per cent below the 10 year average for the month of June and close to the lows for the month of June in 2002 and 2003 prior to the run up of sales and prices starting later in 2003.
