Market Rant
You can feel it in the air, Spring is on the way and so is the Spring market! The last couple of weeks have seen a decent amount of inventory hit the streets, and although they are still being gobbled up by the buyer pool, a few more weeks of this sustained activity should result in a cooling effect to the market. Where it was only one or two options in areas of interest and price, buyers are noticing a few more choices in the past couple of weeks showing up, giving them a better shot at locking something up, since the buyer pools attention is divided amongst the options. Still, there has been some extremely hot properties, and extreme overbids on appropriately market priced properties, but how much longer will these situations persist this year? With the drastic value increase Halifax has seen over the last two years, a couple of key groups have been sidelined by this market; entry level property buyers, and folks looking to complete a lateral move locally. Many property owners have contemplated a move, especially to take advantage of increased value they see in their  current property, but quickly find themselves on the other side of the coin with a purchase. Naturally, the reluctance to list for local, lateral move sellers is occurring, contributing to the lack of listings in the current market. As out of province buyers continue to descend into HRM, and the outlying areas, prices continue to skyrocket and inventory swallowed up. In an attempt to capitalize on this, Nova Scotia will be passing an "outsiders" tax for people purchasing from out of province. If you are planning to move here, then it appears you will not be affected, but if you are looking to purchase an income property, then you may be targeted. See below:

Looks like Sellers aren't the only ones looking to take advantage of the market. Will this implementation be a cooling factor to the market? Are we nearing the end of the pandemic market? Only time will tell, and I have you covered! Stay tuned to the blog to stay on top of the market, thanks for stopping by! 

Hi everyone, my name is Jonah and I am a 1 year old, 10 pound Texan chi mix boy who recently made my way to Nova Scotia looking for my forever home. 

I have yet to bark and I barely shed, which doesn't mean that I'm hypoallergenic nor that I'll never find my voice. I love to play with my foster fur siblings (and neighbours, I’ve never met a dog here I didn’t like), so a fur sibling for me would be great. I could be happy in a home where I am the only dog as long as I have some furry friends to play at my disposal. I am not intimidated by other dogs, and have even won over my foster brother who apparently doesn’t always like other boys. I don’t mind the cat at my foster home and when she asks for space, I give it to her. I haven't met any kids but don't think I'd have an issue with them as long as they're careful as I am just a tiny boy. 

I am really not a fan of the cold, and it is hard for me to go bathroom out there sometimes, so I should learn how to use a pee pad (but I haven’t yet because my foster sibling keeps eating them). I still have accidents even on the nicer days so I still need work with house training which is possible with routine, structure, and patience. 

I’m not really that shy, maybe just the first time we meet I will be a little bit, but when I feel at home I am goofy and cuddly and like Velcro – stuck right onto your lap. I love to snuggle in my foster mom’s arms while she works. 

I walk well on a leash, though don’t always see the point of just going outside and walking around, when I could be running around the house with all my toys. My favourite toys are stuffies with crinkles in them, followed by small dog-safe chewies. I don’t guard my food or toys from the other dogs or cat. 

Being a stray, you always worry about where your next meal is coming from. I am still getting used to not having to rummage around looking for food. If you give me the chance I will go through the garbage and climb up onto the dinner table looking for scraps. So keeping these things off limits to me is a must so I don’t accidentally ingest something I shouldn’t. 

If you don’t want dogs on the furniture then I am not the dog for you: I love to snuggle, climb and cuddle wherever you are sitting. I insist on sleeping with you in bed and sharing your pillow. Sometimes I am a bit clumsy and fall off of furniture so I need help being safe. 

I may not sleep my first night because of nerves, but once I feel comfy in my new home, that will be a non issue. I am a very good boy in the car, and when I hear “good boy” my whole face lights up 😊. So with lots of praise, I'm sure my couple of issues will be a thing of the past in no time. 

Have you been looking for a fur friend like me?

Market Rant
The hits keep on coming! Average inventory gains are being met once again by significant demand, which has punched down the the overall inventory level for the third straight week in a row. Annual trend around this year usually sees inventory numbers push up week to week until we hit the peak of the Spring market, then it slowly tapers off for the remainder of the year, but not so much this year so far. Since any new additions to the market are being gobbled up by the increasing buyer pool, there really isn't an opportunity for the current volume of listings to increase, keeping the offer holdover market strategy pretty much standard at this point. As the Sellers market here in Halifax digs deeper, buyers are quickly finding themselves inside of it without a rope, and outside of their initial property expectation, or out of the market entirely as properties here continue to press to record heights. Speaking of, weekly values remained steady this week, however, the 6 month median prices jumped again this week. Single Family Home 6 month listing price gained $20,000 in a short four week span, and the bidding wars have caused the six month median selling price to jump a staggering $26,000 in that time. The worst is not over I fear, as the weeks press on and the median tracking catches up to the current market, which is nothing short of incredible at the moment. Hopefully, by the time that happens we will be into the Summer market, which many are hoping will look a bit different than the one we find ourselves in currently. Stay tuned to the blog to stay on top of things, and thanks for stopping by! 

Hello everyone, I’m Ollie, a 9 month old pitty mix boy weighing approximately 45lbs. I made my way to Canada from Texas, where I was found as a stray and I am ready to start searching for my forever home. 

I’m a playful fella who loves toys of all kinds but squeakers are my favourite. I will play fetch but I’m still working on bringing the ball back. Balls are fun!

I am a little nervous when I first meet people and sometimes will growl but stop quickly, especially if you have a treat for me. I love treats! Children older than 12 are recommended due to my size and age as I can easily knock over a smaller child because I don’t realize my size and strength.

I walk great on leash and do not pull at all. I’m also perfect in the car and usually just curl up on the seat and take a nap. My foster mom uses the command “Load Up!” and I jump right in.

I am almost housetrained. I do most of my business outside but you have to take me out immediately after I eat/drink any amount of water. If I have an accident it is in front of the door but I don’t make any noise or indication to go out so sometimes my foster parents miss getting me out quick enough and then I will have an accident. I am getting so much better because they keep a close eye on me and know if I head to the door, I need out.

Smaller animals are a big NO for me, cats, dogs or other. After almost 2 weeks of living without incident in my current foster home, I grabbed my little fur foster sister, thankfully she is going to be ok, but clearly I can't be trusted with littles. I also don’t think living with a low energy dog is ideal as I don’t know when to quit playtime and it can make another dog upset with me when they’ve had enough.

I have no issues with resource guarding at all. I do bark a fair amount so apartments probably aren't ideal for me. 

I am crate trained for when I’m left alone, although I haven’t had to be in one for a while because my foster momma is home from work right now so I haven’t been alone much. My favourite place to sleep is in bed with my humans. Most times I climb under the covers and use the pillows. I think I’m part human sometimes.

I am such a handsome boy, everyone falls in love with me! I hope my forever family is out there waiting and sees how wonderful I am!

My adoption fee is a $450 donation to the rescue to help save more dogs like me. I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, come with a 6-week trial of pet insurance from PetSecure and have all my doggy papers to come home to you! You can apply for me at https://form.jotform.com/60895241776264

Market Rant
Just can't seem to gain much ground. After a few promising weeks of inventory increase, the last couple have kicked those numbers back to the basement, which is not good news for soon to be Spring Buyers and those currently looking. Not a huge decrease, but we are way off the levels of last year, which was also the trend of 2021. The next few weeks will indicate if we are in for a "scraping the bottom of the barrel" type of year, or if we finally see a correction year. I personally think we are going to see the former for most of the year, but if builders can catch up to the their current projects, there may be a little reprieve for the market on the horizon. With little to no new construction options around, resale residential continues to take a pounding, rocketing prices to new and somewhat worrisome heights. We are still seeing decent new listing additions though, just not enough to make a dent in the current buyer pool.

​As the Spring kicks into high gear though, opportunities will come, it's just a matter of getting educated on the market and watching current trends on a weekly/daily basis. A good way to do the is by checking out properties on our site viewpoint.ca and favouriting a few that come up for sale that match what you may be looking for in the future. That way you can see the selling price when it is marked sold and see what typical bids are happening over the asking price. Although not a perfect way to gauge what a buyer is willing to pay, it does give some idea on the averages and what a reasonable bid might be should you find yourself in that situation. Of course, having a Realtor on your side certainly helps, since we can help navigate the current market, answer questions and run reports on potential candidates. Especially those, like myself, that have been on the front lines of this market since the beginning. Thanks for stopping by! 

Hi y'all, I’m Niblet, a 4 year old, 13 lb pug mix boy. I came from Texas to Nova Scotia a few weeks ago to find a forever family that will never abandon me again. I am ready to start my search.

I am little and sweet, just like a niblet should be, pretty “corny” right!! I am a very quiet, gentle soul. I have lots to keep me occupied in my foster home, so I watch and listen. Lots of fur friends and lots of foster family. I am a little shy, but not at all aggressive, the type of shyness that goes away as I become more comfortable. I don’t need to be the centre of attention, but I like to be near everybody. I like men and women. I have made friends with everybody, every dog and even the cat in my foster home. I am not very food motivated but if you offer me a treat I will reluctantly accept it. It can get a little harry here at meal times, so I prefer to wait for peace again, and maybe go eat in a quieter place with my foster mom.

I am not destructive at all, and I have spent no time in a crate. I am not overly interested in toys, and I have shown no resource guarding behaviour. I don’t mind the car, probably because that means a walk. I LOVE walks. I come to life then, so lets do lots of those!! I am so good on a leash and love the wooded trails we have walked on. I have met a few people and dogs and I am shy and may shake a little, but when encouraged to move on, everything is ok again. I have met a few children walking too. They were asked to be gentle, and it was fine. I love to bop around in my fenced yard too, the outdoors seems to be my happy place. I can really run when I want to, so keeping me leashed at all times, if not 100% confined, is the best way to keep me safe. I am not sure how I feel about the cold though. I have had to wear some pretty crazy get ups lately, let me tell you, but this place is freezin!!

I am housetrained but my foster mom does seem to have eyes in the back of her head, and the only time I was going to make a mistake I got the look, and went outside. I am sure this behaviour will stick if I must! I totally associate the outdoors with bathroom time, and will do it quick to get back inside. I spend most of the day following everyone around and I can get a little sad when left alone, so maybe take me with you, always, lol. I have a cozy bed to snuggle in during the day, but at night my foster mom doesn’t want me to be alone so she takes me to bed with her. I will find the one spot left in the bed and snuggle in. I will still be peacefully there in the morning, smiling at you with the cutest little underbite you have ever seen.

I have a little cherry eye we have been massaging, but it is hardly noticeable. I cleaned up really well in the bath, and I didn’t even mind it. My foster mom says that I am pretty darn close to perfect!! 

If I sound like the perfect companion for you, then let my rescuers know. 

My adoption fee is a $400 donation to the rescue to help save more dogs like me. I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, come with a 6-week trial of pet insurance from PetSecure and have all my doggy papers to come home to you! You can apply for me at https://form.jotform.com/60895241776264

Market Rant
This week is a "one step forward, two steps back" kind of one, but also another record breaker! With improvements in some of the key statistics that buyers are extremely interested in over the past couple of weeks (like the inventory levels), the hope was that the trend would continue for the remaining market year. This week was a bit of a setback in that regard, with inventory slightly reducing overall, but the bigger story here is the surging values/selling prices. All weekly average listing prices pumped up quite a bit, but the selling prices jumped up to some extreme heights over the last couple of weeks. Heading into March we are now catching up statistically to the late year inventory void of 2021, leaving buyers behind, and allowing the buyer pool to teem again. This vacancy has caused higher than usual price inflation in a lot of the communities around the HRM, making the buying process not only a challenge but frustrating one to many buyers out there. As we start seeing the overbidding results come into view, the stats in the last couple weeks shine a spotlight on how quickly things have increased in a short six month timeframe. In the last two weeks, single family six month median listing prices jumped almost $13,000 after holding steady at $400k for the last few months. The overbid amounts have boosted the SFH median selling prices $16,000 as well, but I fear that this is not the end of these increases. The condo reports for the 6 month median stats looks quite the same, with major increase in both listing and selling values over the last couple of weeks. Fingers crossed we can get back to the inventory improving market this week, so stay tuned to the blog to find out if that's the case! Thanks for stopping by! 

*RECORD BREAKER: Absorption rate hit an all time low of 4 weeks this week

My name is Granny and I am 4 year old, female, 75 lb, Bulldog Boxer mix. After my puppies were all sold, the "breeder" decided they would let me go as well so I made my way into the rescue and haven't looked back! 

I am a strong girl who is a bit larger than I look in photos. I am also very kind, gentle, and haven’t shown any signs of aggression while with my foster family. I am filled with love and want to please people. Treats and praise are good motivational tools for me. 

I am happiest when everyone is home with me and am good when I am left home alone so you don't have to worry about coming home to a mess. I don’t need a lot of exercise, however one or two 15 min walks a day helps me relax at home. Once or twice a day I get a burst of energy where I like to play, other than that I like to relax and sleep on my bed!

I think I’d be happiest either in a home in the country or in a home in a neighbourhood if my adoptive family takes time to help socialize me with other dogs and people. I walk well on a leash although at times I will pull a bit hard, with a quick correction I remember to stop pulling. When on a walk I sometimes bark at people or dogs that we walk past, not an aggressive bark, more of a - ‘I see you there’, bark. I am not a fan of the rain, snow, or cold weather…I need a little encouragement to go outside during these days and won’t stay out very long. 

My favourite toys are a ball and a toy on a rope that I can throw around and chase. My favourite treats are cheese and soft dog treats. I am not a fan of hard treats. I would do well in a home with other dogs or on my own. I am currently the only dog in the home but I was temporarily with several dogs, big and small, and had no issues.

I am housebroken and am good with kids although I’m not always aware of my size or strength and may knock little children over accidentally. I would be happy in a family home or in a home with one person. When someone comes to the door I usually stay laying on my bed or come to the door quietly and greet the visitor. I am good in the car for drives even though it is not my favourite place to be. I have not met any cats so I'm not sure what to think of them. 

I am definitely ready to meet my new family and get settled in my forever home. It won’t take much for you to fall in love with me.

Do you think we'd be a good match?
