(1) the mix of sold homes changes; for example, one month, more high-priced homes are sold; hence, the average sold price is skewed to a higher number. If you have more lower-priced homes are sold in one month, the average sold price will be lower for that month. (2) The change in the market condition where overall homes are sold more hence pushing the average sold price higher, or vice versa.

The number of sold condos in Mar 2021 is significantly higher, 156 condos, compare to Mar 2020, 93 condos. Higher sale volume for condos can perhaps be explained by the relatively stable and lower condo prices than house prices.

On average, it takes only 12 days to sell a condo in March 2021, indicating that the market is hot and there is a high demand for condos in the Willowdale area. The number is very similar to the average number of days sold in Mar 2020.  Months of Inventory (the number of months it takes to sell off all the active listing homes in the market) The months of inventory continue to be less than 4, indicating demand is much stronger than supply. There are not enough condos in the market to offset the demand. Hence, sellers are still enjoying the strong market, referred to as Seller's Market. The strong demand and lower supply are still driving the prices higher.

The data provided here help you make a well-informed decision about where you'd like to live. **Why do we use firm contract numbers instead of closed deals? To obtain the most updated stats, we use the firm contract - NOT when the transaction is reported or when the deal closes. A contract is firm when both the home seller and buyer agree to the transaction. Why use periods of 28 and 56 days? We use 28 and 56 day periods because some months have more weekends, ensuring that each period has the same amount of days and weekends to make a like-for-like comparison. What does pro-rated data? It can take up to four weeks or more for transactions to be reported based on historical reporting. Almost 30% of home transactions within this period have yet to be included in this report. Hence this period's numbers are considered "pro-rated."
