Lethbridge home sales shot up 81% in December, city leaning towards a “seller’s market”
LETHBRIDGE, AB – While much of the economy was down in 2020, the local real estate sector thrived.
Cathy Maxwell, CEO of the Lethbridge and District Association of Realtors, reports that 81 per cent more homes were sold in December 2020 at 116 compared to the same time in 2019.
Houses sold for an average of about $300,000, which is an increase of approximately 13 per cent.
These strong sales have helped to lower inventory levels from about eight-to-nine months back in the spring to about four months now.
