Housing prices simmer despite polar temperatures
# P/ K% f% v, a+ B! X  PEdmonton, December 4, 2006: Market watchers at the Edmonton Real Estate Board report that bone chilling temperatures last month did not chill the resale housing market. Housing prices on the Multiple Listing Service® continued to simmer in November with all types of homes up slightly (compared to mid-summer price increases) from the previous month. Average days on market is more typical of this time of year.

“REALTORS® have been running hard all year and now we have a chance to catch our breath,” said Madeline Sarafinchan, EREB President. “Weaknesses in the US or Eastern Canada housing sectors are not present in the Edmonton market. The local housing market is still very active and listings are low: creating demand. The relaxed prices simply reflect the typical seasonal fluctuation that occurs near the end of each year.”

1 m9 w  X) f! |$ bThe average price* for a single family home in November ($334,039) was up 2.37% from last month and the all-residential average price rose two percent to $282,434. Condo prices reversed a price drop last month and rose 1.74% in November to $212,596. Duplex and row house average prices were up half a percent at $283,919.

This demonstrates the vitality of our marketplace.” The average days-on-market was up to 26 days in November which compares to 39 days last November and 23 days last month.
