To account for swings in monthly estimates and to gain a \u201cmore complete picture of Canada\u2019s housing market,\u201d CMHC uses the trend measure to complement the monthly SAAR in starts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The standalone monthly SAAR of housing starts across the country was 301,279 units in November. This marked an increase of 26% from October, when there were 238,366 units.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Multiple urban starts increased by 41% to 221,153 units in November, while single-detached urban starts dipped by 1% to 58,243 units.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cFor SAAR housing starts in Canada\u2019s urban areas, there was a slight decrease in single-detached starts, while multi-family starts experienced a large increase in November, resulting in higher overall starts for the month,\u201d Dugan said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dugan noted that housing start activity remains high in historical terms on both a trend and monthly SAAR basis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Among Canada\u2019s largest cities \u2014 Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver \u2014 the latter was the only market to see housing starts decline in November, while Toronto saw a significant increase thanks to the multi-family segment more than doubling from the previous month.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The SAAR for urban starts rose by 29% in November to 279,396 units. Rural starts had an estimated SAAR of 21,883 units.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u200b\u200bCMHC defines a housing start as when construction begins on a building where a dwelling unit is located, typically when concrete has been poured for the footing around the structure, or the equivalent stage when a basement is not a part of the structure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/12\/canadian-housing-starts-trend-upward-november.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canadian Housing Starts Trend Upward in November<\/a> by Ryan Garner | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fuelled by a surge of multi-family projects, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) found the six-month trend in national housing starts increased last month after a recent decline.
