Housing Market Stats

Housing Market Stats

CREA compiles and analyzes numerous factors affecting the real estate market for the public, REALTORS® and governments.

With the accurate, up-to-date information that CREA provides:

  • The public gets a snapshot of the Canadian housing market;
  • REALTORS® can knowledgeably advise their clients; and
  • Politicians and government policymakers can craft more effective legislation and regulations.

MLS® Home Price Index

With the MLS® Home Price Index (HPI), you can access data about the residential markets of participating real estate boards across Canada. There’s no better tool to determine price trends in the housing market.

Six founding partners jointly developed it: the real estate boards of Calgary, Fraser Valley, Greater Montreal, Greater Vancouver, and Toronto and the Canadian Real Estate Association. In 2009, the partners contracted with Altus Group to develop the MLS® HPI, which subsequently launched in January 2012.
