As anticipated, this week will still show general market inconstancies due to the holiday season, for instance, sales reported a mere 53 on the week which is actually 15 more than last year if you can believe it. Speaking of last year, the stats continue to narrow, and we are actually kicking off the year on a positive note. For the first time in a long time, we are within double digits of overall and single family home inventory levels, and condo inventory continues to report lower and lower. Values are a bit out of whack the week, but the low number of sales has caused some fluctuation across the board. I would focus on the median home prices to get an idea of whats selling, to me, it seems like entry level products are the holiday flavour. Exciting start to the new year, and I know there are more than a few people with fingers crossed that 2016 will usher in a rebound for the Halifax real estate market, you'll have to stay tuned to find out! Be sure to stop by for the 2015 year end wrap up, which will be posted soon! WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Merlin is a sweet boy looking for an active home! He is around 11 months old and weighs 51 pounds.
