TORONTO REAL ESTATE BOARD MARKET WATCH - Mid Month Report October 2010

TORONTO, October 18, 2010 -- Greater Toronto REALTORS® reported 3,012

sales through the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) during the first two

weeks of October 2010.

This represented a 17 per cent decrease compared to the 3,631 sales

recorded during the same period in 2009. Year-to-date sales amounted to

71,988, representing a three per cent increase compared to 2009.

“The GTA resale market is balancing out from the record level of sales

experienced in the second half of 2009 and first few months of 2010. This is

why sales figures have been lower than 2009 levels in recent months. With

this said, it should be noted that the annual rate of decline slowed somewhat

through the first two weeks of October,” said Toronto Real Estate Board

President Bill Johnston.

The average price for October mid-month transactions was $444,644 – up

seven per cent compared to the average of $414,479 recorded during the

first 14 days of October 2009.
