Regional real estate reports show Canada\u0027s housing markets continue to deflate under the weight of rising interest rates. Find out more

Sales in most markets are now well below pre-pandemic levels and prices continue to slide. Still RBC economist Robert Hogue noticed “interesting nuances” in some of last week’s reports.

Hogue said the composite MLS Home Price Index fell for the seventh straight time in October from the month before. But the 1.1 per cent drop is less than a third of the 3.4 per cent average fall between April and August.

Meanwhile in Montreal, “the downturn isn’t letting up,” said Hogue. More buyers are staying out of the market, inventories are rising and prices keep heading south. RBC estimates sales dropped 2.6 per cent in October from the month before, but that too is less than the average of 7 per cent in the previous three months.Article content
