The market continues to strengthen on both the supply and demand side. The supply of homes is now sitting at 8630 homes for sale in the Edmonton area. Down from 9612 last month. On the demand side, the number of sales have bounced up to 1719 from 1541 in August. We are now in a market with a 5 month supply of inventory. Technically we are now in a balanced market.
Predictions? As I mentioned in August's wrapup, I think we will drop into the 6000 or less inventory range by the end of December. That should set us up for a strong spring market in 2009 where we could start to see price increases.
