June 2018 Oakville Real Estate Update
June 2018 Oakville Real Estate Update information shows a market in which the number of sales are rising, a first in several years. Year over year, the sale price of an Oakville home has decreased anywhere from 7.21% to 3.78%. Condo prices are the exception. Prices for condos have increased by 6.76%. Though current values are below their 2017 high, they are starting to increase. The increase is eroding the decrease month over month.
"After some adjustment to the Fair Housing Plan, the new Office of The Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) stress test requirement and generally higher borrowing costs, home buyers are starting to move back into the market, with sales trending up from last year’s lows," stated Mr. Garry Bhaura the new president of the Toronto Real Estate Board.
In June 2018 a total of 298 residential sales were recorded. The number of new listings was 646, with a total number of 1060 active listings. There was 3.5 months of inventory which is consistent with May 2018.
