Understanding this indicator
- What it is
- The 12-month percentage change in Statistics Canada's New Housing Price Index: how much builders' prices for comparable new houses changed over the past year.
- How it's measured
- We compare the latest monthly index value with the value for the same month a year earlier: (latest ÷ year-ago − 1) × 100.
- How to read it
- Positive means new-home prices are higher than a year ago; negative means lower.
- Year-over-year changes avoid seasonal swings that affect month-to-month comparisons.
- Limitations
- Covers new single-family, semi-detached and townhouses only, not resale or condos.
