** Note - Our housing market remains stable in regards to volume and we have seen some minor erosion of prices. The market is basically unchanged for the last 24 months. This is possibly due to uncertainty about the HST to GST/PST change and how it will affect sales of new homes. It could also be reflecting global financial uncertainty.
