CHMC predicts 5.1% and 3.3% increase in real estate prices for 2007 and 2008
"Despite a slowdown of sales, demand remains strong by historical standards," CHMC said, projecting that home prices would continue to outpace inflation this year and next, rising 5.1% this year to a national average of $323,000 and 3.3 percent next year to $333,500.
Scotiabank's Warren said there are a variety of reasons for confidence in continued health of the housing market. Unlike in the U.S., home prices in Canada are not substantially overvalued, the real estate market is not overbuilt and households are not over-leveraged, she said.
Still, the 10% average annual increase in home prices over the past half decade was unstainable, and a return to more historical norms is a welcome development, Warren said.
