Finally 2021 Good News for Real Estate Buyers



65% of homes are under contract within 2 weeks.

That’s the fastest pace on record. (source TRREB) 

In our local market, 1 out of every 2 homes is under contract in less than 8 days

When you factor in historically low mortgage rates and increased buyer demand, you end up with an incredibly competitive market for buyers.

So what’s the good news?

Mortgage applications have declined for 6 consecutive weeks. (source Lindsay Doke Mountainview Mortgage Brokers).

It’s hard to say for certain but this could be an indicator that we’ve reached peak demand. If demand decreases because of rising rates and we see a surge in new listings hitting the market like we typically do in the spring, this will create new opportunities to find that perfect home. 

As always, I want to make sure that you’re in the know about all the important trends happening in our local market.

Sincerely, 


David Pylyp
