Last month’s home sales in Kitchener-Waterloo were up 1.7% compared to December 2020.
“Home sales in 2021 have absolutely smashed last year’s record by more than 1,000 units…While this is a good time to sell your home, it remains a tremendously difficult market for buyers. Affordability for all types of housing within our community continues to be a concern which we expect to continue throughout 2022.”
M Bell, President of KWAR

“Supply not keeping up with demand was a steady refrain in 2021, and unfortunately I expect that will continue to be the case in the year ahead…We need all levels of government working together to bring more supply into the housing market.”
