Vaughan real estate agent, Ilan Joseph predicts that this autumn, the real estate market is going to gain speed. According to recent statistics, the average price that homes sold for in August was approximately $546,303, an increase of 9% over last year. Moreover, detached homes sold for an average transaction price of $902,428.
Ilan Joseph believes the reason the real estate market was up in August was in preparation for the fall season. Since there are so many individuals fruitlessly looking for homes because of the intense competition, it only makes sense that they start the search early. One recent real estate story depicts a bidding war with 14 different people; it goes without saying that by the end of it the buyer paid well above the asking price.
What to Look Out For
Ilan Joseph and his team of real estate agents are warning potential buyers across the Greater Toronto Area that if they are looking to purchase a new home this fall they may be paying more than they expected. Largely due to the fact that there are more people looking to buy homes than there are homes available. Some sellers and realtors choose to hold off accepting offers until competition among homebuyers begins to drive up prices and creates bidding wars.
What Toronto’s Real Estate Market Looked Like Earlier this Year
As mentioned, homes sold for significantly more this August than they did they did last year. In addition, the demand seen throughout the condo market had also surged this year with condo sales up to 6.5%, and condo prices averaging $370,899. Moreover, this July showed the second best record of house sales ever in the Greater Toronto Area. Over the first six-months of 2014, homes for sale in Vaughan and the rest of the Greater Toronto Area also rose 34% from last year.
