NEAR-RECORD SEPTEMBER SALES DRIVEN BY STRONG DETACHED ACTIVITY

Saskatchewan reported 1,398 sales in September, an eight percent year-over-year increase and nearly 15 percent above long-term, 10-year trends. September marked the fifteenth consecutive month of above-average sales in Saskatchewan, with sales levels across the province amongst the strongest ever reported for the month.

Strong gains in the detached sector drove much of the year-over-year sales growth, accounting for nearly 73 percent of monthly sales. Sales levels also improved across nearly every region of the province, with year-to-date sales currently on pace to be the second highest on record.

“Record population growth, favourable economic conditions, and an improving labour market continue to support strong demand in Saskatchewan’s housing market,” said Association CEO, Chris Guérette. “When paired with easing lending rates, these factors are, without question, contributing to a fifteenth consecutive month of above-average sales.”

New listings trended down in September, a two percent year-over-year decline and over 16 percent below long-term trends. The pullback in new listings relative to sales resulted in a 17 percent year-over-year inventory decline, nearly 40 percent below the 10-year average—the lowest level reported in September since 2007.

Saskatchewan reported a residential benchmark price of $343,800 in September, down from $344,700 in August and nearly six percent above September 2023. Meanwhile, all Saskatchewan cities reported year-over-year benchmark price increases – with the largest increase (13 percent) in the City of Moose Jaw.

Regional Highlights
Year-to-date sales growth has been largely driven by gains in the Regina Moose-Mountain, Saskatoon-Biggar, and Swift Current-Moose Jaw regions, which account for 81 percent of all sales in the province. Meanwhile, sales activity in the Prince Albert and Yorkton-Melville regions remains in line with last year’s activity while still outperforming long-term trends.

The Saskatoon-Biggar region continues to report the tightest market conditions in the province, with inventory levels nearly 45 percent below the 10-year average.

Price Trends
All provincial economic regions reported year-over-year price gains in September, with the strongest price growth occurring in the Saskatoon-Biggar and Swift Current-Moose Jaw regions.

With prices nearly 13 percent higher than last year, the city of Moose Jaw reported the largest price gain in September, followed by Yorkton at eight percent and Humboldt at over seven percent.

City of Regina
The City of Regina reported 320 sales in August – the second-highest level on record for the month – up five per cent year-over-year and 19 per cent above long-term, 10-year trends.

Strong sales figures were met with declining new listings, resulting in a 23 percent year-over-year decline in inventory, over 40 percent below long-term trends.

The City of Regina reported a benchmark price of $320,700 in September, up from 319,700 in August and nearly five percent above September 2023.

City of Saskatoon
The City of Saskatoon reported 432 sales in August, an increase of 16 percent year over year and 24 percent above long-term, 10-year trends.

Limited supply options continue to prevent even stronger sales figures in Saskatoon. Monthly inventory levels remain over 46 percent below the 10-year average and the lowest reported in September since 2007.

The City of Saskatoon reported a record benchmark price of $401,800 in September, down from $404,900 in August but nearly seven percent higher than September 2023.
