Canadian real estate sales are still dropping. Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) numbers show home sales falling in November. Last month, only three major real estate markets saw increase on a year over year basis. The rest saw declines, especially in major markets like Vancouver – which led the way lower.

Canadian Real Estate Sales Drop Over 12%

Canadian real estate sales are still falling, and fast. CREA reported 33,318 sales in November, down 15.25% from the month before. Sales across the country are now down 12.54%, when compared to the same month last year. The decline is the eleventh consecutive month for declines, and is likely to continue.

The growth of Canadian real estate sales have been trending lower for years. Last month was the slowest November since 2013, and the largest annual decline since 2008. Sales have continued to trend lower from peak growth seen in February 2016. Maybe Santa will give everyone a condo for Christmas.

Quebec, London, And Montreal Real Estate See Biggest Gains

The markets with the largest gains for November were Quebec City, London, and Montreal. Quebec City reported 611 sales in November, up 18.2% – the largest jump in the country. London followed with 737 sales, up 6.3% from last year. Montreal came in third with 3,630 sales, up 6.1% from last year. By the way, these weren’t just the three with the biggest gains. They are the only major markets with a gain to report.
