SASKATCHEWAN REMAINS RESILIENT AS INVENTORY CHALLENGES CONTINUE April 5, 2023 For immediate release: There were 1,213 sales recorded across the province in March, a 20 per cent year-over-year decline. Despite year-over-year sales declines, this level of sales is still stronger than pre-pandemic levels and nearly 10 per cent above long-term, 10-year trends. New listings decreased by over 17 per cent on a year-over-year basis and remain significantly below the 10-year average.
