All indicators are showing that our market has continued its decline, as well as show no real signs of improvement. Although listings weren't as plentiful as last year, our sales are well below what was reported last week in comparison, which tanked the sales to list ratio with a 11 point drop. Fairly interesting showing from the expired/cancelled/withdrawn pile this week, with a whopping 373 properties that have decided to throw in in towel. As frequent readers will already know, there is a beginning of the month expire/list event that distorts the stats for that week, but this week is quite beyond. I'll be interested to see how many of those listing return to market next week to attempt the winter market. Stay tuned for the October monthly wrap up, sure to be interesting... ![]() WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Dippy is a 2 year old Am.Staff looking for his perfect home! He is a sweet, goofy guy who loves to play and could afford to lose a few pounds! Dippy would do best in a home with children over the age of 10, as he does jump when excited and can mouth when he is overstimulated. He tested well with our little test dog, a smaller, older female, so if you have a dog in your home, they will have to meet to ensure that everyone gets along. No kitties please! Dippy is great in the bath, being picked up, having his ears cleaned, and his nails trimmed; he has no food bowl issues, and does okay in the kennel, barking for a bit but settling well. Dippy does have food allergies, so a grain-free diet will be necessary; obedience classes will be mandatory for anyone wishing to take Dippy home so stop by and met him today! This "sassy stud" is available through Homeward Bound City Pound, a non profit rescue organization from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
