Housing markets across major North American cities are experiencing a notable increase in home inventory levels, coupled with declining prices and reduced buyer activity. In California, home listings surged by 51% year-over-year in April, reaching the highest levels in years, with San Diego up 70%, Los Angeles 50%, San Jose and Silicon Valley 67%, and the San Francisco metro area 43%. Toronto's Greater Toronto Area (GTA) condo market is witnessing unprecedented supply, with over 12,000 active listings in April compared to a typical high of 9,000, while sales have dropped to 1,430 units from the usual 2,500-3,500. Toronto house prices fell 7%, and home prices in the broader Toronto area declined by 4% in April. Rental listings in Toronto also hit record highs. Similarly, Denver's housing inventory doubled relative to its long-term average, with 10,345 listings in April compared to a normal 5,158, signaling a sharp market correction. Las Vegas’ Clark County and Phoenix’s Maricopa County are approaching or surpassing pre-COVID new listing averages, though affordability constraints continue to dampen buyer demand. Washington, D.C. experienced a 25.1% year-over-year surge in active home listings, the largest on record and nearly double the national increase of 14.2%, influenced in part by federal layoffs. Nationally, the number of metro areas with housing inventories above 2019 levels rose from 41 in January to 69 in April 2025. Home price appreciation in the U.S. is slowing, with affordability challenges exacerbated by rising homeowners insurance premiums and tariffs on building materials. South Florida also faces potential price declines amid nearly 52,000 homes listed for sale. Overall, the data indicate a broad trend of increasing supply and weakening demand across multiple U.S. and Canadian housing markets.
