Metro Moncton Real Estate Market - First Quarter 2009

My Metro Moncton Real Estate Market Analysis for March 2009. I prepared this analysis and included only MLS® residential sales in Moncton, Dieppe & Riverview.

  • The average sale price was up sharply in March, an indication of stronger sales of higher priced homes.

  • The sale price to list price ratio is unchanged.

  • The average "days on market" is almost unchanged.

  • Unit sales of existing homes were down an average of 22% over the three month period compared to last year.
