Greater Sudbury records 271 new house-listing events and 186 sold-closing events in April 2024. The same-period flow ratio is 68.63%, giving buyers and sellers a clear view of how much activity is moving through the local house segment this month.

Same-period flow ratio
68.63%
At 68.63%, sold closings represent a substantial share of the month’s new-listing count. The two event groups are not matched property by property, so the ratio is best used as a broad activity signal for April 2024.
How the month compares
| Comparison | New listings | Sold closings |
|---|---|---|
| April 2024 | 271 | 186 |
| Change from previous month | +78.3% | +51.2% |
| April 2023 | 154 | 120 |
| Change from one year earlier | +76.0% | +55.0% |
| 12 months ending April 2024 | 2,320 | 1,675 |
Both sides of the monthly flow expand from the previous month: new-listing activity rises 78.3% and sold-closing activity rises 51.2%. Buyers see more newly listed options, while the higher closing count shows that earlier agreements are also completing at a faster pace.
Compared with April 2023, this month records 76.0% more new listings and 55.0% more sold closings. That year-over-year view helps separate the current month from ordinary calendar swings, while still leaving room for differences in price range, location and property condition.
What buyers can take from April 2024
The 271 new-listing events show the number of fresh house opportunities entering the Greater Sudbury house segment during the month. They do not reveal how those homes are distributed by neighbourhood, price or condition. A buyer should compare the specific homes available now, then use recent comparable sales to decide where competition is real and where a condition or price adjustment may be reasonable.
The 186 closings belong to agreements often negotiated before April 2024. They show completed demand, but they are not a count of offers being written today. Buyers can protect themselves by keeping financing current, reviewing disclosures and inspection options, and setting a maximum price from the payment and property—not from the monthly ratio alone.
What sellers can take from April 2024
For a seller, 271 new listings define the month’s incoming competition. The most useful comparison set is narrower: similar homes in the same part of Greater Sudbury, near the same price and in comparable condition. A launch price should reflect that live competition as well as completed sales.
The 68.63% flow ratio helps describe the overall pace, but it does not guarantee a sale. Presentation, access, photography, disclosure, offer terms and adjustment timing remain property-level decisions. If early showing and inquiry patterns are weaker than comparable listings, respond to that evidence rather than waiting for a citywide headline to solve the mismatch.
How to use the 12-month view
The 12 months ending April 2024 contain 2,320 new-listing events and 1,675 sold-closing events. That longer window softens some monthly seasonality and gives a more stable sense of market scale. It should still be paired with the latest comparable properties because a rolling annual total can include conditions that are no longer dominant.
What these counts include
This April 2024 snapshot covers House listings in the Greater Sudbury MLS records reviewed. New-listing events are assigned by listing-contract date and sold-closing events by valid closing date. An address may return under a different MLS number after a listing ends, so listing-event counts are not unique-property counts. The same-period flow ratio divides the month’s sold closings by its new listings; it is not inventory, absorption, days on market or same-listing conversion.
