RE: SC Listings & Sales 2011-2013
Here are the Sunshine Coast Sales Stats for July, 2013.
July's SC sales beat my expectations. Total Sales (69) went back into the green compared to the previous month (61) and bettered last July's sales (63); however, on a YTD basis the SC continues its slide into the red down 9.2% (-9.2%) Year-to-Date compared to 2012. Gibsons continues to be the biggest loser in YTD sales (-21.5%) followed by Halfmoom Bay (-21.2%) and Sechelt (-8.7%). Only Roberts Creek (+48%) and Pender Harbour (+15.4%) have seen their YTD sales rise above 2012. This month's increased sales could be due in part to those taking advantage of the last month for pre-arranged mortgages at lower rates or to buy and lock-in for 10 year fixed rates before interest rates rise any further. As well, prices continue to drop on the SC which has to be tempting for those wanting to buy. What would be interesting to know is where the buyers are coming from - are they from BC (i.e. lower mainland) or are they from out of province (particularly Alberta or Saskatchewan). |
