Kingston is currently a buyer’s market, and this is expected to continue into the fall due to the healthy housing supply available. While a shortage is unlikely, Kingston could see a return to a balanced market with moderate price increases.
On September 4, Bank of Canada will make another interest rate announcement. Mortgage brokers are reporting an increase in pre-approvals, indicating buyers are prepared to purchase, but waiting on the sidelines. Another interest rate cut could encourage a return to market activity, which could lead to a swift reduction in inventory. Buyers are starting to see the benefits of lower rates and with prices are holding steady for now.
