Slower in Mississauga ..agree with gtarealtor - too many agents now !

Nobody has replied to this thread in a few months but I thought I would revive it and let everyone know that Toronto had the best January on record. I think it was due in part to the unusually warm weather (a distant memory now).
I had an offer on a house in East York and got the house for my client, over 14 other offers.

St. John's Newfoundland market has slipped into a Buyers Market however there are still lots of full price offers being seen.
Snow or no snow...this has been a terrific first quarter thus far.

For the time I lived in Calgary, all I can say is "wow". You know the market is crazy when house prices go up by $100 a day. (I believe that number is correct).

In Red Deer now, it's a bit calmer, but still a very popular place to live - much like the rest of Alberta.

Edmonton is an economic rocket with all engines ignited. Calgary continues to rise in prices. Last summers surge in inventory had a number of builders reducing starts. How many times has this happened in the last 10 years.

Not concerned about the number of agents in a market except California, I read somewhere that they have more realtor registered that they had transfer deeds registered last year.

The market has certainly softened somewhat here in the Niagara Peninsula, but prices are showing no real signs of going either up or down. All that's happening is that agents now need to work a little harder to both get listings and find buyers.
But anything akin to the doomsday talk being heard to the south of us is decidedly non existent.

I'm in Hamilton-Burlington area and the market remains really strong here. Both units sold and average prices have gone up since last year.

Things are starting to cool quickly...listings at record highs, sales are at 5 year lows.

I'm just east of Vancouver, and our market hasn't slowed down one bit.

My mother's house, which is over an hour east of Van central, is now worth the same as a similar house in downtown Toronto.

Qualicum Beach, Parkville on Vancouver Island is strong, although a little slower for July which is typical.

Parksville I can see rising in value over the next few years for sure.

The Toronto market has been very strong this summer, with sales increasing by about 15% over the last couple of years.
