数据统计来源： Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). 时间： September 11, 2012
- Housing starts in Canada were trending at 222,900 units in August.
说明： The trend is a moving average of the monthly seasonally adjusted annual rates (SAAR)1 of housing starts.
- The standalone monthly SAAR was 224,900 units in August, up from 208,000 in July.
Mathieu Laberge, Deputy Chief Economist at CMHC’s Market Analysis Centre：
“The increase in housing starts in August was the result of a few, large, multi-unit projects in the Greater Toronto area. This increase is primarily a reflection of the high level of pre-sales in some of these large multi-unit projects in late 2010 and early 2011, which is in line with job gains at that time....., “The higher level of starts recorded in Atlantic Canada and British Columbia in August reflect low levels of activity in July rather than an increasing trend that was registered in August. Overall, moderation in housing starts activity is still expected for the remainder of 2012 and 2013.”
值得注意的是，这些数据代表整个加拿大的水准，对个体消费这和投资人来说，区域的趋势更有意义，多伦多的Condo存量是一个值得关注的指标。往往成交量的涨跌与价格的波动有6个月的gap.
