The past week witnessed good transaction levels across most markets. However, Kitchener-Waterloo was an exception, with a very rare no-show in terms of transactions. For the second week in a row, most transactions were of average size.

The largest transaction of the week took place in Paris, where approximately 26 acres traded for $19.7 million or $734,000/acre. The Highway 2 corridor continues to be a hot commodity, as evidenced by the recent purchases made by Orlando Corp. and Panattoni. Over the past 24 months, these two companies have purchased hundreds of acres in this area.

In Hamilton, the largest purchase of the week occurred near the Upper Red Hill area, where 7,300 sq. ft. of industrial space traded for $3.22 million.

In the news, the DRP has reviewed two proposals for downtown residential projects, Corktown Condos sales will begin next month, and Toronto still leads North America in crane count.

Take care,
