We just sold our house in Canada. We set an all-time record for our subdivision with the price we wanted. It was on the market for <2 weeks.
One of our neighbors sold their house before it even got listed, and at least three forsale-by-owners have sold on my street (of 40 houses) in the last month. One of which apparently had a bidding war.
We're about an hour west of Toronto in a town of 100k and all of this activity was in the ~$500k range.
The market is very active but it doesn't feel like a bubble yet. While prices are strong, they haven't started to go up really fast (more like just holding strong) and we aren't seeing lots of speculation or a ton of new building.
We're taking advantage of our strong market here and our par dollar to move to the San Diego area. I have to say we're nervous about leaving the "socialist" health care behind, but leaving the cold winters behind should make up for it.
