Home sales fell in December, capping tepid year in real estate market
Canada’s residential real estate sales dropped sharply in December, ending a tepid year for the housing market when many buyers stayed on the sidelines.
National home sales for the month dropped by 2.7 per cent on a seasonally adjusted basis from November, and by 4.5 per cent in real numbers compared with December, 2024, according to data released Thursday by the Canadian Real Estate Association. Just over 26,000 homes were sold across the country in the last month of 2025.
