Numbers are up across the board for July 2013 in Toronto! As we head into the final stretch of summer, the market continues to be strong. I believe the fall market is again headed for record numbers. Year-over-year; prices and demand (sales) were up in July. Supply has remained relatively flat (only a 1% increase) – this means supply is needed to meet with the increasing demand.
