OTTAWA, March 17 (Reuters) – Canadian home sales fell 1.3% in February from January and prices declined in continuation of a trend that started early this year, data from the Canadian Real Estate Association showed on Wednesday, although it added there were some signs of a pick-up in activity around the end of the month.
New listings dropped on a monthly basis in February but were not enough to boost the sales-to-new listings ratio which stayed well below the long-term average, data showed.
