<div>"While we&rsquo;re seeing more homes listed for sale in recent months, supply is still chasing this unprecedented surge of demand in our marketplace," Morrison said.</div>
<div>The sales-to-active listings ratio for April 2016 is 63.3 per cent. This is indicative of a seller&rsquo;s market.&nbsp;</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 2em; text-align: center;">&nbsp;</span>Generally, analysts say that downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below the 12 per cent mark, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it reaches the 20 to 22 per cent range in a particular community for a sustained period of time.</div>
