Compared to last year, all of the important areas of the market are reporting in a positive manner as new listings are down, inventory is down across the board, and average days on market are getting shorter. There will be some skewed numbers this week however, as starting the new year usually needs a bit of room launching off the ground, and a gentle "wake up" nudge to get going. As the Christmas holidays fade from the rear view, home sellers and buyers look forward, to see what lay in wait and to start their plan of attack. Market activity has picked up already in the new year, and inquiries and interest can be felt among the agencies here in HRM. Hopefully a solid jump to the year will spark just the activity that we have been needing for so long, or maybe, things are coming close enough to a turn around point for investors to start taking action. Either way, this renewed vigour is a welcome site! ![]() WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Ariel is a 2 year old AmStaff looking for a home with a breed experienced family. She LOVES people and loves to play but she can be a bit rough with jumping and mouthing; because of this, a home with children over the age of 10 would be ideal.

Ariel does well in her run and tested well in the crate; she is fairly quiet, calming down quickly, and she appears to be house trained too!
