London Housing Market to Remain Steady in 2012
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/06/12 -- Housing demand in the London Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) will be slightly stronger than in Ontario as a whole as London will continue to benefit from employment growth and a relatively affordable housing market, according to Alexander Bonnyman, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation's (CMHC) Senior Market Analyst for London. CMHC presented its latest forecast for the London CMA today at the annual CMHC Housing Outlook Seminar.
This year's seminar, entitled, 'How does London measure up?' had market analysts use local CMHC data to answer questions, housing-industry professionals hear every day - addressing Londoners' housing-related concerns.
"London's housing market in 2013 is shaping up to be very similar to 2012 results," said Alexander Bonnyman, CMHC's London Market Analyst. "2013 will start at a slower pace than a year prior but activity will pick up in the latter half of the year as employment responds to strengthening US demand."
Highlights from today's seminar include:
"Larger urban Ontario centres have been capturing a growing share of housing activity in recent years. A gradual shift in housing activity is expected as smaller urban housing markets hold up relatively better in 2013," said Ted Tsiakopoulos, CMHC's Ontario Regional Economist. "Housing markets in Windsor, Thunder Bay, Sudbury and London will outperform thanks to an ongoing US economic recovery, relatively more affordable housing and residential construction that is better in line with household formation".
