Buyers remain confident in Ontario’s housing market
By Lucas on Jan 26, 2017
Despite the mixed forecast for Canadian economic growth in 2017, the housing market looks like it will remain stable this year, says Trimart Research Corporation. Ontario will be the country’s powerhouse as far as housing markets go, especially the Total Market Area (GTA and surrounding areas). The low unemployment rate, high home values, and balanced gas prices help support confidence in the market.
Listed below are a few notable new low-rise sites of the last month:
Saddle Ridge by Starlane Homes
Placing first on this week’s Trimart Hot Spots list is Saddle Ridge, a new home community in Milton by Starlane Homes. During opening month, there were 134 sales at Saddle Ridge.
