Residential property sales have increased 11.9% in June 2013 totalling 2,642 comparing to June 2012 where sales reached 2,362. Typical slower summer trends shows a 8.3% decrease in sales from last May.
Looking at a 10 year sales average for the month of June, sales were 22.2% lower. New listings for the month are also lower at 11.5% below the 10 year average.
I am noticing an overall stable market where both buyers and sellers are experiencing a win-win scenario. However there are micromarkets such as Coal Harbour which are still quite saturated with listings and overall in favor for the buyer.
