It seems like the Markham real estate market is defying the odds once again. The extremely low inventory has kept the pressure on prices translating to a 27% increase over the same timeframe last year. The Toronto Real Estate Board recently released their annual report forecasting that home prices in the GTA will increase by an average of 10%-16%. It seems, at least so far, that the new mortgage rules have had very little effect on the market…on prices anyhow. New listings are down almost 20% as many homeowners are finding it unaffordable to move up to a larger home, yet the demand is still there.
