 CREA News Release - June Statistics

 Attached is a News Release from CREA with highlights below... 

Canadian home sales edge lower in June
 
Ottawa, ON, July 16, 2012 - According to statistics released today by The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), national resale housing activity edged lower on a month-over-month basis in June 2012. Price gains remained strong in Toronto, continued slowing in Greater Vancouver, and accelerated in Calgary.
 
Highlights:
 
       Home sales down 1.3% from May to June.
       Actual (not seasonally adjusted) activity stood 4.4% below levels in June 2011, marking the first year-over-year decline since April 2011.
       The number of newly listed homes climbed 1.4% from May to June.
       Fewer sales and a rise in new listings resulted in a more balanced national housing market.
       The national average home price slipped 0.8% on a year-over-year basis in June.
       The Aggregate Composite Benchmark home price was up 5.12% year-over-year in June.
 
Sales over Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) Systems in Canada eased 1.3 per cent on a month-over-month basis in June 2012. This follows a 3.4 per cent decline posted in May. National activity was down from the previous month in slightly more than half of all local markets, with Greater Toronto and Vancouver contributing most to the small decline.

Research Highlight

Earth Tube Ventilation Systems — Applicability in the Canadian Climate
This Research Highlight summarizes the results of a review of available research on residential earth-to-air heat exchangers (EAHX, also called earth tubes) and their applicability to the Canadian climate. The findings of this research has shown that while many earth tubes have been installed in residential (and commercial) buildings, there is currently little information available that characterizes the performance of residential EAHX in most of Canada's climatic conditions with respect to potential energy savings and impact on indoor air quality.

About Your Apartment
Energy and Water-Saving Tips for Your Apartment
If you rent or own your apartment, there are things you can do to reduce your energy and water consumption. CMHC's Energy and Water-Saving Tips for Your Apartment fact sheet shows you a number of ways to cut your energy and water needs and make your apartment more comfortable — by yourself or in cooperation with your building's management.
