Sarnia housing starts for the month of December are stable compared to the same month the previous year.
CMHC Market Analyst Anthony Passarelli says work started on 18 single family homes last month, compared to 16 in December 2014.
"The single detached housing starts which makes up the vast majority were actually up a little bit, so you saw overall I think, a stable picture for Sarnia," says Passarelli.
Passarelli says the number of starts for 2015 in Sarnia was down slightly from 2014, but not an amount he would consider much of a decrease.
The monthly statistics cover Sarnia, St.Clair Township and Point Edward.
