The busy homebuying season is just around the corner

By Lucas on Jul 28, 2016

The latest report from Trimart Research Corporation states that new low-rise sales have been strong across the Total Market Area (TMA) throughout the summer, though sales centre traffic has been slow. Due to the beautiful weather, long weekends, and cottage trips, it’s not unusual for sales to dip a bit in June.

That said, we are about to enter August (starts with a long weekend), which means builders and developers will be announcing more specific dates for all of their fall releases that usually open in September and October. If you have any upcoming communities on your radar, keep a close eye on them starting next week.

Listed below are a few notable low-rise sites of the last month:

U.C. Towns in Oshawa by Tribute Communities U.C. Towns by Tribute Communities

Coming in first place on this week’s Trimart Hot Spots report with 116 sales last month in U.C. in Oshawa by Tribute Communities. This long running, very successful community is one of the most popular in Oshawa. The townhomes at U.C. range from 1,782 to 1,986 square feet and prices are starting at $465,990.  

Esprit in Newmarket by Sundial Homes Esprit by Sundial Homes

Placing second with 42 sales last month is Esprit, a new home community in Newmarket by Sundial Homes. The community features urban townhomes, 35’ and 40’ detached homes, as well as urban townhomes. The homes range from 1,030 to 3,441 square feet and prices start from $579,990.

The rest of the positions are occupied by collections of Cleave View Estates by different builders. This Brampton community was highly anticipated so it’s not surprising that the builders saw a great turnout.
