0 s: G" X8 n9 rWhile sellers have lost the luxury of bidding wars, "buyers have a lot of choice," said Carolyn Pratt, president of the Realtors Association of Edmonton - which released the figures, Wednesday.

Average prices of single-family homes fell 3.2 per cent, in August, to $403,757. That rolls them back to the levels of March and April. But they're still up 27.6 per cent from 12 months earlier.

对酒当歌-整个一假牙。差一点搞错了，以为是醉酒当歌了。
