Market Update: October 2022 Update from WECAR
With the Bank of Canada announcing yet another key rate increase, this time 50 basis points, the Windsor real estate market continues to adapt and correct. Buyers looking for houses for sale in Windsor have seen these changes up close and personally as they view Windsor homes for sale and decide on offering.
The Windsor Essex County Association of Realtors newest report for the month of October illustrated the impact the actions the Bank of Canada have had over the last 6 or so months. The board recorded 366 homes sold in the region this October, a 48.23% decrease from last year, where 707 homes were sold. The average sales price of those homes this year was $542,707. In comparison, the average sales price for October 2021 was $566,857. That October 2022 figure is a nearly $180,000 decrease from the peak of March 2022 at $723,739.
Finally, while market activity was down 11.76% for October, the overall market activity for the year is still up 15.05%. Just over 1300 listings were live at the time of publishing the report.
