Couple new additions to the blog, a new blog record, and we celebrate an anniversary this week. To the rant! Looks like things are still steady in the main areas and no "uptick" in the market occurred in the last couple of weeks. The only things that are on the up is inventory (as per usual) and the average sale prices. Both Condo and Single Family Homes posted solid prices this week, with SFH's breaking a all time value high this week on the blog coming in at $309,886. So our odd trend of increasing prices, every growing inventory and lack of buyers continues as the summer market carries on. Couple of new stat additions this week, and the return of an old one. Decided to post the sale to list ratio for both single family homes and condo's. As you can see, SFH's averaged a 5% price reduction from where it was listed, and condo's negotiated a mere 2%. These numbers only reflect the last list price to the sale, and does not take into account however many price reductions took place before that. I would imagine the point gap would be much larger if that was that case. Last but not least, we celebrate the one year anniversary of the "Weekly Adogtable" feature on the blog. Working hand in hand with many of the great people and associations that take care of these rescued animals has been an absolute pleasure. The exposure that these guys get here has been noticed by many people, and referenced back to on adoption day, which makes me extremely happy. I donate what time I have, and funding to these amazing people and places in hopes that these guys get a second chance at a home, and don't get lost along the way. Thank you for the support, and please, share when you can. The more exposure they get, the better chance they will be noticed, and ultimately, adopted. WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Bronx is a beautiful pit bull terrier that is as cuddly as can be and will curl up with you for hours as soon as you sit down. She is around 3 years old, 65lbs, spayed and vaccinated. Bronx is fully house trained and hasn't touched any of her foster mama’s things. She loves to play with tugging on her rope and is lower energy with sleeping most of the day. Bronx will bark when someone comes to the door but she warms up quickly and is full of kisses for new people once she meets them. She is learning quickly not to pull on walks but will need someone with patients who will continue to work with her. Bronx meets big dogs when off-leash, but will need a home free from small dogs and would do best in a pet free home. She lived with 3 children in her past and loves to snuggle right in with them. Bronx is a very loving girl who is looking for someone to curl up with and who will love her back. To adopt Bronx, fill out an Adoption Application! This "Lovely Lady" is available through Buddies Bully Rescue, a non profit rescue organization from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
