The residential inventory has been rising for a while now and number of sales is slightly lower in June. These two factors are definitely adding pressure to the sellers who may be inclined to lower the price in order to sell. While supply of homes and condos in the Great Edmonton real estate market is increasing, the prices so far remain almost unchanged. Sooner than later, something has to give. Also, Bank of Canada just increased the rates again which is definitely not helping current situation. On the positive note, we still have a stable economy and Edmonton's housing market which is rather inexpensive compared to other cities.

Looking at the April's and the last few months numbers, one can only wonder if the current conditions and stats are indication of a stagnant Edmonton housing market to come. The increase in the residential inventory, average "days on market" and lower number of sales (except in April) compared to the past few years, definitely point towards it.  If we look at the current condition of our economy, rising interest rates and tougher mortgage rules, combined with record high personal debt, I think it may be a while before we will see any sight of expansion and increases in pricing. On a positive note, we all have to live somewhere and there are always buyers looking to buy that first dream home, move or down size!

One can only say "What a strange market". Despite increased inventory and lower sales compared to last year, current prices of homes in Edmonton are slightly up. One can only assume that most of the sellers are not willing to reduce the prices on their listings, regardless of how long their homes have been on the market. Are the sellers playing a game of chicken with the buyers or simple can't afford to sell their properties for less that they bought them in the last few years. I guess we will see more clearly in the next few months.
