March 2021 Market Update

NEWS FROM CREB … February was another very strong month in our residential market, and the best February on record since 2014.

“Despite continued Covid-19 restorations, housing activity continues to improve. Much of the strong sales activity is expected to be driven by exceptionally low mortgage rates ….
