Like January, February showed strong signs that 2014 should be a busy year for the Edmonton Area Real Estate market. In all residential areas we have seen a increase in average selling prices compared to January, average days on market has decreased, and the total number of listing and sales on the MLS service have increased significantly.

Here is a look at the numbers;

With all the positive signs in this mouths stats, low interest rates, and new job creation in Alberta one can assume it is almost a sure thing to be a very busy year with likely some fairly significant price increases.
