Vaughan Real Estate - Vaughan Homes For Sale - Market Update - April 2011
Hot off the press. The Toronto Real Estate Board published April market statistics by district yesterday and I have reviewed the key indicators and will interpret the April numbers for the Vaughan Real Estate Market. The market is definitely a seller's market and with the better weather, the spring market is about to heat up.
Last April 2010 was a record month for sales and the numbers for this April are down substantially versus last year, however, they are about average for a normal April. Again the media influences what they report and most reporters fail to mention this fact.
Market conditions were tighter in April compared to last year. The tight market resulted in strong price growth for the month of April. With competition between buyers, we have seen a very strong but sustainable rate of price growth. Right now, I will provide my observations, for those that are interested, on the Vaughan Real Estate Market. Here are some quick facts and a brief market update on Vaughan Real Estate and Vaughan Homes For Sale for April 2011.
In my last update, I spoke about a healthy market when it comes to Vaughan Real Estate and that is exactly what we are expereincing when it comes to Homes For Sale in Vaughan. As you may know by now, I am all about facts and here are the facts for Homes for Sale in Vaughan for April 2011.
The Vaughan Real Estate market showed that inventory was down substantially for April versus the prior year for the same month. We had 478 active listings this past April versus 689 last April. That represents 30% fewer lisitngs. In a nutshell, Vaughan is experiencing a lack of listings right now. That bodes well for sellers so if you are thinking about selling, now might be a good time to put your Vaughan home up for sale.
The Vaughan Real Estate Market for April had 280 sales versus 304 transactions last April. These numbers indicate that the Vaughan Real Estate Market remains strong, is quite stable but we are lacking some quality listings right now.
When we look at the average selling price in the Vaughan Real Estate Market for April 2011, it was at $547,536 which is up 8.82% versus last April's number of $503,115. Again, the Vaughan Real Estate Market remains positive relative to average selling price versus the prior year and with more buyers looking at fewer available units, the numbers make sense. The old supply and demand theories at work again.
Homes for Sale in Vaughan were on the market for an average of only 19 days in April, which is actually the same as last April. Again more buyers looking at fewer available units and these buyers are buying quickly. These numbers indicate that the Vaughan Real Estate Market remains healthy and that it is a sellers market right now.
That's pretty much it for Vaughan Real Estate and Vaughan Homes For Sale for March. Watch for my May Market Update in a few weeks.
