The survey compared the PPSF of properties sold between January 1st and June 30th in 2021 to the same six-month period in 2020.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the initial decline in market activity during the spring 2020 wave of the pandemic, pent-up demand for housing pushed prices upwards throughout the fall and into early 2021 as supply dwindled. According to the survey\u2019s report, home prices in major city centres have been \u201csofter\u201d compared to those in traditionally less expensive markets. Brian Rushton, Executive Vice-President of CENTURY 21 Canada, noted in the report\u2019s findings that there wasn\u2019t a single region across Canada that didn\u2019t record price growth in the past year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhen the pandemic began in 2020, the market became unchartered territory. But because of low inventory and high demand from buyers looking for a larger space, prices have steadily climbed for the past year, particularly detached homes,\u201d said Rushton.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cOver the past couple of months, that growth has slowed and condo prices have started increasing again\u2013 it\u2019s still a seller\u2019s market from Victoria to St. John\u2019s,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Out of all the markets CENTURY 21 analyzed across Canada, detached homes in the downtown and southwest areas of Montreal logged the highest PPSF, having soared 40.92 percent year-over-year to $1,350. By contrast, detached properties in Saint John, New Brunswick recorded the cheapest PPSF on record, rising 8.63 percent between 2020 and 2021 to $134.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In seventh place on the national list, townhomes in downtown and southwest Montreal reported annual price gains of 22.01 percent, boosting the average PPSF to $937.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cMontreal saw affordable prices for many years, but people saw the value in this city and the cost of a home is now on par with other major cities in the country,\u201d said Mohamad Al-Hajj, owner of CENTURY 21 Immo-Plus in Montreal, in the survey\u2019s report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Four areas of Vancouver made up the top five ranks for the most expensive areas by PPSF nationwide. Condos located in downtown Vancouver posted a PPSF of $1,310, the second-priciest community on the national list. It was followed by Vancouver (West Side), Vancouver and West Vancouver, where the PPSF for detached properties in 2021 equated to $1,208, $975 and $971, respectively. Detached homes in Vancouver (East Side) and North Vancouver rounded out the top-10 national list, coming in ninth and tenth place, with PPSF levels of $877 and $794.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/08\/price-growth-double-digits-major-canadian-cities.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Price Per Square Foot Growth Rate Soars into The Double-Digits in Major Canadian Cities<\/a> by Michelle McNally | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From coast to coast, the Canadian housing market has experienced a boost in prices over the course of the last year, including the country\u2019s busiest and largest market regions.
