Where Will Prices Go From Here?
Episode 353
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
The Canadian housing market in October 2025 showed modest growth with sales up 0.9% from September, marking the sixth increase in seven months. The market is balanced but gradually tightening, with the sales-to-new-listings ratio at 52.2% and months of inventory at 4.4 months. Prices have stabilized, with the national average at $690,000 (down just 1.1% year-over-year) and the MLS Home Price Index up 0.2% month-over-month.
- End-user demand is returning as interest rates reach "almost stimulative territory," though buyers remain cautious due to economic uncertainty.
- After corrections in 2022-2023, home prices have stabilized and are moving sideways to slightly up, with year-over-year declines narrowing to their smallest levels since spring.
