" D0 ^. E) `/ VThe August average of $344,792, for all forms of housing, was down 2.8 per cent from July.

Inventory rose to a record level of 9,185 listings with 4,331 homes newly listed during the month and only 1,229 sold.


One year earlier, inventory was just 2,138 units.

While sellers have lost the luxury of bidding wars, "buyers have a lot of choice," said Carolyn Pratt, president of the Realtors Association of Edmonton - which released the figures, Wednesday.

Average prices of single-family homes fell 3.2 per cent, in August, to $403,757. That rolls them back to the levels of March and April. But they're still up 27.6 per cent from 12 months earlier.

对酒当歌-整个一假牙。差一点搞错了，以为是醉酒当歌了。

正宗声明，本人是“对酒当歌” 不是“醉酒当歌”， 两者没有任何关系，没有骗取广大人民群众信任的想法。不过最近俺经常来这个板块逛逛。
