Trimart: We’ll Catch up with September Numbers
By Lucas on Oct 02, 2012
August witnessed 859 new home sales, a good month, but still down 12.8% from last year. Trimart is reporting that the shortage of inventory in the low-rise market in the Greater Toronto Area is the chief factor in the 12.8% decline. With the number of new home releases scheduled in September, along with the traditional upswing of the fall market, Trimart expects September's numbers to be much improved.
First on the Trimart Hotlist is Hawthorne Village by Mattamy Homes, which achieved 23 sales last month. Located near the corner of Derry Rd. and James Snow Pkwy., Hawthorne Village features townhomes ranging from 1,040 to 1,873 square feet, priced for as little as $249,990.
