The Real Estate Market in Thunder Bay

According to CMHC or Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the real estate market in Thunder Bay will start to decrease a little bit for up to 230 units this year because of a fewer apartment, then will increase for up to 255 units the following year.

A demand for new homes is going to soften this year because of the more selection on the resale market, and the lack for job growth. A little improvement in the conditions of employment next year is going to lead for a greater demand for housing and thus, it will start to edge up.

The sales are going to elevate by only 1.2 percent to the 1460 homes that will be sold this year, and it will be stable again at 1450 homes that will be sold next year. The tight resale market in Thunder Bay will be more balance for the next years to come, due to the fact that there is a greater growth in the new listings compared to those that are in sale. As an outcome, the average price growth is going to be moderate from 8.1 percent last year to 4.7 percent in this year and 2.9 percent next year.
