   In April, 710 homes exchanged hands via the London and St.
  Thomas Association of REALTORS® (LSTAR) MLS® System, a slight decrease of
  2.9% compared to the same month a year ago. Year to date, there have been
  2,381 total sales, up 6.1% from the first four months of 2023. 
   
  “More new listings came on the market in April, which continues to show a
  marketplace with some balance between buyers and sellers," said 2024
  LSTAR Chair Kathy Amess. “We saw 1,425 new listings, up 43.8% over the
  previous year, with an overall sales-to-new listing ratio of 52%. According
  to the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), a ratio between 40% and 60%
  is generally consistent with a balanced market.” 
   
  The average sales price in April was $656,037, slightly down 1.5% compared to
  April 2023. It is slightly up 1.5% from the average sales price in March,
  which was $646,155. Meanwhile, the Composite MLS® Home Price Index (HPI)
  Benchmark Price was $602,800, unchanged from a month ago and up 5.1% compared
  to three months ago.
