After several years of increasing inventory that we thought would never stop, all areas of stock have finally reported below the previous year at the current time. As previously mentioned, condo inventory started the trend mid 2015, but the overall and single family home numbers stubbornly, and consistently, reported higher...up until now. The recent shift to lower listing additions and increased buyer activity have certainly aided this event, and that buyer activity does not seem to be slowing at the moment with an unusually high count of accepted offers this week (137 properties changed to pending after accepting an offer). Average prices across the board were down this week as first time home buyer products continue to lead the charge in sales, and the absorption rate is a staggering 10 weeks lower then last years report. Hopefully, this is the date to mark down in your calendars as the turning point for our market in Halifax, and I for one will be interested to see if this trend carries. Thanks for stopping by!

He is a fun boy who is FULL of energy and with that being said, obedience training is mandatory for this guy as he's still learning proper manners. Sully has not been tested with dogs as of this moment, but given his young age he could be adjustable depending on the dog. He would be okay in a home with children, although we are recommending over 10 since he can be jumpy and mouthy during playtime. If you're interested in meeting this sweet boy, come on by today! This "cuddly companion" is available through Homeward Bound City Pound, a non profit rescue organization from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
