Canadian Home Sales 'Turn A Corner' In June, But CREA Calls For A Cautious Road Ahead
AI Article Summary

In June, Canadian home sales saw a modest rise of 2.8% month-over-month and 3.5% year-over-year, mainly driven by rebound in the Greater Toronto Area. Despite the increase in sales, home prices continued to decline slightly, reflecting a market cautious about economic trends. Looking forward, the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) predicts small declines in sales and prices in 2025 due to previous economic uncertainty, but also anticipates recovery fueled by pent-up demand and lower interest rates by 2026. Overall, CREA considers the current market as being in a holding pattern with potential opportunities for buyers and a need for sellers to adjust expectations.
