2023 Mission Hill Sales Market Report

The real estate market in Mission Hill has started 2023 in a deep chill as property sales decline city-wide. Mission Hill has recorded just 3 residential property transactions over the past 3 months. That ties the lowest 3 month total in the past five years of MLS data. The 30 day median sale price also failed to eclipse $1M for 3 months in a row for the first time since mid 2021. Let’s take a closer look at the trends driving Mission Hill’s real estate market.
Total Real Estate Sales in Mission Hill

Since November, Mission Hill has recorded just one property sale in each of the last 3 months. Given its small geographical area, total residential sales for Mission Hill real estate typically average around 3-4 per month. Still, just 3 residential sales over a 3 month period is the lowest rolling 3 month total since late 2019. We can make some fair assumptions that that our misguided war on fossil fuels and bizarre fiscal policies that helped ignite runaway inflation and subsequent high interest rates could be a strong reason for this steep decline in sales volume. Historically, inflation almost always creates uncertainty in the marketplace which slows down velocity of spending. The question we need to start asking ourselves is how long this will last.
