New Brunswick's housing market is alive and well, despite being in the midst of a pandemic. In June, the Fredericton area saw an increase of 53 per cent on house sales compared to last year. Watts said the year started off as "another banner year" in January and February, with a slight increase in the number of house sales from 2019. "This is the first time in my career we've had such a predominant seller's market," she said. In a news release, the Canadian Real Estate Association said there were about 1,534 new residential listings added in New Brunswick in June 2020.
