The bigger question is on the supply side : will more sellers step in?\u201d Hogue wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The view from the RBC Economics team is that high home prices, coupled with the successful Canadian vaccination campaign and looser restrictions, will bring more sellers to the market, many of whom may have delayed listing during the spring\u2019s third wave.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cStill, any bump in new listings is poised to come short of rebalancing most markets in the near term. In fact, we see low inventories restraining activity in the months ahead and sustaining intense competition between buyers leading to further price gains in the coming months,\u201d Hogue wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/06\/sales-slowing-canadian-home-prices-havent-peaked.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RBC : Sales are Slowing, But Canadian Home Prices Still Haven&#8217;t Peaked<\/a> by Sean MacKay | Livabl<\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The number of homes changing hands across Canada likely won\u2019t rise to levels seen in March until the country\u2019s next boom period, but there\u2019s still plenty of gas left in &hellip;
