Only 319 new condo units were sold in the third quarter, down 54 per cent from a year ago and the lowest quarterly total since 1990 when Toronto’s condo market faced a severe crash, according to a quarterly condo report by the real estate research firm Urbanation.

Lemmings, what are your opinions on the housing market?

Do you think it will drop more? What is a fair price?

I think it'll drop more? I don't see any uptick specifically with respect to the condo market just yet? My friend who's a real estate agent says it's going to go further but he's like very Chinese and his analysis is based on Feng Shui so I don't know how I feel about that.

A fair price is harder to pin down because there are different types of condos in different locations with different amenities as well. Also, as much as I hate housing costs in Toronto and it is high. This is a global phenomenon too. So like, personally, I'd just want housing to be in the reach of a regular Canadian with a decent salary but there's so many macroeconomic factors at play that a "fair price" is something I'm genuinely not qualified to answer.

It's so hard to predict the future. From one had the demand is there- lots of people are looking for homes and condos. From another hand, sales are low which will drop prices more.

Very difficult to say.
