TORONTO, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Sales of existing homes in
Canada rose in August from July, as strength in the two big
markets of Vancouver and Toronto offset weakness elsewhere, a
report from the Canadian Real Estate Association showed on
Tuesday.
The industry group for Canadian real estate agents said
sales activity was up 0.3 percent last month from July. Actual
sales for August, not seasonally adjusted, rose 4.0 percent from
August 2014.
CREA's home price index rose 6.43 percent from August 2014.
