INVENTORY! INVENTORY! INVENTORY!

In order for supply to meet demand when it comes to our local Burlington, Ontario real estate market, there needs to be approximately 450 homes for sale in a given month. If we remember back to 2017 when only 290 homes were for sale, the lack of inventory resulted in buyers competition, bringing bidding prices up to unprecedented levels. This resulted in the government stepping in with the introduction of The Fair Housing Plan, suddenly cooling the over heated market and leaving us where we have been for the last 24 months or so. Until now.
In Burlington there are 52% less homes for sale than what would be considered a balanced market. What does this mean? SELLERS MARKET, and BUYERS ARE BACK TO DEALING WITH MULTIPLE OFFERS AND OVER ASKING BIDS.
