We're also going to see what kind of shape the townhouse market in Abbotsford was in for the month – whether it was a buyer's market, a balanced market, or a seller's market.
January opened the year with negligible momentum. Prices continued to weaken while at the same time selection remains high. Under normal market dynamics, these would be considered highly favourable conditions for buyers, however the uncertainty of the past year or so continues to loom large, subduing buyer confidence and muting overall market activity.
