New listings of 5,438 were down a slight 0.3 per cent from a year earlier but still 16.3 per cent above the 10-year average.
Total listings of 16,393 were up 13.2 per cent from last year, leaving the sales-to-active listings ratio at 14.2 per cent. Historically, prices have come under pressure when the ratio falls below 12 per cent.
