A Record 11-Month Year For Toronto Real Estate Markets

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Rouge River Ltd, Brokerage

The Toronto Real Estate Board has released the sales figures for November across the board.  2007 has already out sold every year previous.  The previous best 2005 year saw 84,145 unit sales.  By the end of the November, there have already been 88,695.

House prices are continuing to rise year over year.  The average price in 2006 was $351,941.  In November, the average price had rise to $375,445, more than 6%.

Does that reflect in the Durham market the same exciting news?
