“We are seeing lower activity than we have experienced in recent years for spring home sales. Of course, this is not surprising given consumers are impacted by the B20 mortgage stress test, as well as ongoing lower inventory levels. Despite this, we have seen an increase in May for sales over last year. Prices remain strong in the lower price ranges, with little change in our benchmark prices when compared to last year.”- Camosun REALTOR® Victoria Real Estate Board President Cheryl Woolley.
