TORONTO, February 4, 2011 — GTA REALTORS® reported 4,337 homes and condos sold through the TorontoMLS® system in January 2011. This result was 13% lower than the record result reported in January 2010.
“While off the record pace experienced a year ago, the GTA resale market has started the year on a solid footing. Home buyers in Toronto and surrounding areas continue to benefit from a diversity of housing types for sale at many different price points,” said TREB President Bill Johnston.
