2009 Real Estate Statistics Summary

The real estate year of 2009 began amidst the economic downturn. Hardly any homes were selling and those that were had to be priced at a steep discount. Mostly there were no buyers in the market. By May 2009 consumer confidence returned to the Toronto housing market and a strong housing recovery got underway. The rally continued until it faded away into the year-end holiday time when real estate typically is slower.

Whole year average price for Toronto rose 4.2% from $379,347 to $395,460

Comparing December 2008 to December 2009 the market is up by 14% to $411,931

But the December 2009 average is down by 1.6% from November 2009.

Got all that? The reporting of market statistics is a bit crazy in real estate! I have summarized the whole thing into a couple of charts to help explain it visually:

Here is the monthly chart for the last few years:


And here is the yearly chart back to 1972:
