But at least so far, it hasn't cooled enough to drive prices down, like in some other Canadian markets. "We've definitely seen a slow down in the frenzied market that we saw earlier in the spring," said Kim Reddin, a mortgage broker in Charlottetown. "Not as many multiple offer situations. Not as many over-ask situations ... The pricing is stabilizing I think." Canada's two largest an
