Inventory continues to vacate the market, and buying activity has slowed to a crawl. Values are still holding onto their respective averages for the year, and days on market are a little brutal around this time pushing four months on average. With Christmas just around the corner buyers are out there in full force, just looking for gifts instead of homes. Maybe spending that time to go for a skate at the oval, a walk around the local parks, or visiting with family. Either way, this downward trend will continue until the end of the year and reset, for what we hope to be a banner year in the new year. There is a few positive market indicator rumours floating around right now, and if they turn out, it will indeed be an interesting year next year.
