Oakville Sales Statistics - Third Quarter Report 2009
Home sales in Oakville in the third quarter of 2009 continued to accelerate. Both the number of sales and the average sale price have surpassed those recorded for the same time period in 2008.
The increase in the number of sales month over month compared to 2008 began in May of this year and continued through September. Limited inventory in Oakville has resulted in the demand for housing outstripping the supply.
This originally led to a balanced market but has tipped somewhat to a seller's market with many homes selling over list price in record time with multiple offers. Low interest rates continue to spur the buyers plus somewhat more confidence in the economy and job stability.
