This marks a slightly higher increase compared to the last four months, the federal department noted. On an annual basis, new home prices rose 11.5% in October, a growth rate that has not been seen since 2006.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Out of the 27 census metropolitan areas (CMAs) analysed in the report, monthly prices increased in 15 of those communities, while 10 recorded no change and two CMAs saw prices drop. Year-to-year, prices were up in all 27 CMAs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kitchener\u2013Cambridge\u2013Waterloo in southeastern Ontario experienced the largest increase in new home prices, where values jumped by 3.8% month-to-month. According to data from the Kitchener Waterloo Association of Realtors, the benchmark price for all residential properties was $803,900, up 2.5% from September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Similarly, London, Ont. saw new home prices increase 2.4% from September to October, with the London St. Thomas Association of Realtors reporting a 2.9% rise in the benchmark price for all residential properties to $613,900.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Compared to the other 27 CMAs, Kitchener\u2013Cambridge\u2013Waterloo also reported the largest annual price gains, with the cost of a new home climbing 29.2% year-to-year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cGiven the proximity of the two cities to Toronto, demand for homes has also been coming from buyers outside the London and Kitchener\u2013Cambridge\u2013Waterloo region, driving home prices further up in a market with persisting low supply, and creating a barrier for some local buyers,\u201d explained the StatsCan report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On the opposite side of the country, Victoria, BCsaw monthly new home prices jump 3.3%, the largest increase on record since May 2002. Active listings in the city diminished \u201cdue to sustained demand.\u201d In October, there were 1,036 homes available for sale, 7.8% fewer than the previous month according to the Victoria Real Estate Board.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIf competition for homes continues in Victoria, upward price pressure should persist given the historically low supply,\u201d said the report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By province, new home prices in Ontario, British Columbia and Quebec were up 1.2%, 1.1% and 0.2% month-to-month. Alberta, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador reported no changes in new home prices during October.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Major provincial cities such as Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver and Montreal saw monthly new home prices grow 1.3%, 0.5%, 1% and 0.2% from September to October.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/11\/canadian-new-home-prices-biggest-2006-statscan.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">StatsCan : Canadian New Home Prices See Biggest Jump Since 2006<\/a> by Michelle McNally | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The price of a new home in Canada increased on both a monthly and yearly basis during October as supply constraints persisted in some regions.
