Levels of inventory across the board are down, and new listings are actually a little leaner than what has been reported all year. Sales are still sluggish however, and not only did we make a fairly large point jump in the absorption rate, the sales to list ratio took a hit as well. Still, values remain intact and activity remains positive, but that positivity cannot cloud the record breaking inventory heights, nor cover up the lacklustre sales that hinder the market here in Halifax. There was more price changes this week than new listings, and twenty five more listings that either expired, cancelled, or withdrew their listing than sold. Still, activity is still prevalent, and with the inventory on the downward trend, I guess you could say there is less competition. Thanks for stopping by! THE WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Name: Chico Age: 16 Breed: Chihuahua mix Chico is a 16 year old Chi mix searching for a new, quiet home to spend the rest of his days. He's a cute little guy, with lots of charisma! He loves to go for his walks, and treats are his absolute favourite. We are asking for a home with no young children as he is an older, fragile boy. He would make a great companion for another little dog, and would be fine with kitties too. This "cuddly companion" is available through Homeward Bound City Pound, a non profit rescue organization from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
