The Guelph market remained in buyer leaning territory through March, with sales down over 20% year over year and inventory continuing to build as new and expired listings rise. Prices have held relatively steady, with only minor movement, but with a sales to listings ratio around 35%, buyers currently have more negotiating power.
Looking at the bigger picture, a weakening Ontario economy and rising bond yields are impacting confidence and keeping some buyers on the sidelines. That said, a major shift has just been introduced, with both the federal and provincial governments temporarily removing the full 13% HST on qualifying new homes for a one year period, offering up to $130,000 in rebates depending on price point. This applies to homes under $1.5M at full value, with rebates phasing down to $24,000 up to $1.85M, and is available to all eligible buyers, not just first time purchasers.
With pent up demand building, especially among first time buyers, and new construction already slowing, this incentive is expected to create urgency and could accelerate activity heading into the second half of the year.
