Hi everyone, welcome back to our monthly market update! My name is Jacob and I’m a broker and team lead of Asparian & Co Real Estate. We’re a boutique team focused on all things in real estate in the Durham Region. Today we’ll be reviewing the market update numbers for April 2023 but also looking at market activity levels to see if we can see where the market is heading now.
The basics! In every market, the 3 most important numbers we look at are listings, sales, and average sales price.

We had 903 homes sold in Durham Region this April and that is a decrease of 17.1% from the 1,089 that were sold at the same time in 2022.

One of the biggest mistakes buyers make is trying to time the market and waiting on the sidelines for prices to come down. With the current economic environment, we are starting to see it happening.
