Condo inventory is down by just a few units compared to this time last year.

With the help of strong sales in July and August, third quarter sales were up 22% compared to the third quarter last year. Average price for the quarter was up just 1%.

YTD sales and closed volume are up 14%, but the average sale price of $246k dropped slightly from $247k last year.

The $200k to $300k market was hot in the third quarter as sales jumped from 40 units a year ago, to 75. Despite the increase in sales, values were relatively flat.

Sales in the $125k to $200k range dropped from 59 to 50 and average price per square foot for those units fell 12%.

The upper-end market suffers from over-supply. With 182 listings priced over $350k, there were only 29 third quarter and only 67 YTD closed sales. YTD average market times have jumped from 146 days a year ago to 185 days.
