我觉得现在的房市就象2000年初的股市。没有多少理由地抄到极限。离崩盘不太远了。看一看

Housing sales 'solid' last month

Sales of existing homes continued at a brisk pace last month despite record cold temperatures across the region.
The Ottawa Real Estate Board said 946 homes changed hands in February, making for the third busiest February on record in the past 15 years.
However, the tally was down 16 per cent from the record 1,125 homes sold in February 2002.
The resale figures are compiled from the number of listings on the Multiple Listing Service, the universal registry of homes for sale that is used by all realtors.
Kent Browne, president of OREB, said the results were solid considering this winter's record cold temperatures and storms.
Last month was also a sharp rise from the 653 homes that were sold in January.
The average price of a home climbed to $213,033 in February, up almost 10 per cent, or $18,600, from the same month a year ago. Compared to January, the average price was up by more than $1,000.
Browne also said that the real estate board agrees with the forecast by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. for about 12,000 sales this year. In 2002, 12,800 homes changed hands. He added that prices should increase two to four per cent this year.
