Engineered soft landing, stability expected in 2019
National: Sales and prices have rebounded and market conditions
are in equilibrium¹:
Average sales prices have increased in two consecutive months.
Composite MLS Home Price Index2 is stable (top right chart)
。 Sales-to-new listings ratio at 54.7% in April 2019, well within the
44-64% range consistent with balanced housing demand and
supply
Greater Toronto: Conditions are largely balanced, which indicate
steady near-term price gains
Greater Vancouver: Sales activity remains weak after new taxes
came into effect on January 1, 2019 (bottom right chart). Expect a
return to positive price and sales gains later this year supported by
strong job creation and immigration
