Here are my thoughts…
Since the major player in the price change is BC, the stats don’t mean much to Torontonians (nor it should since Real Estate is a more local than national vehicle) but it’s important to note that there’s quiet a spread between prices in Toronto vs Vancouver and BC prices are still rising. Could this be an indication of things to come? Do you think that $1000 a square foot for a condo will be the norm? It could be but I think we are still some years away from considering it the norm. If there’s a pattern of migration to Toronto, do you think the increase in demand would drive the prices further up?
OR
Do you think we need a correction?
