Single family home options are driving the inventory upwards quickly, reporting almost three times more than this time last year. Condo's are in the same boat really, but the available numbers for condos are still rather low in comparison. Sluggish start in a few other areas as well. New listing additions are down, and so too are sales compared to last year. Buyer activity is reporting lower, and listings in general are hanging around on the market much longer than last year. With the pandemic market in the rear view, the six month median values have finally (almost) caught up with what has been happening since April of last year, confirming that the extreme overbidding on property is no longer a factor. Sure, there are still multiple offer situations in certain areas and price points, but they don't seem to be show-stopping amounts. The six month average listing prices, both single family home and condo, have held relatively steady in the last few months but their selling prices have been steadily falling until finally levelling off. With inventory on the rise and prices cooling, buyers have lost the appetite to get extremely competitive, especially since most buyers are aware of the sliding market and values. Going to be another interesting market year here in Halifax, and I have you covered. Stay tuned to the blog and stay informed! Thanks for stopping by! The Weekly "Adogtable"Hey doggy lovers! My name is Petunia, named after a flower because I am a delicate, beautiful, and strong. I am a one and a half year old Lab/Retriever mix girl weighing around 50 lbs. I came from Louisiana a few weeks ago. Now I am ready to find my forever home! I am house trained. I have had a few accidents in my new foster daddy’s home, but we worked hard together and I am proud to say that I no longer use the washroom in the house. I love toys, whenever I get a chance I like to prove that no toy is indestructible. I sometimes need a cue if I am doing something mischievous and getting into things I shouldn’t be. I was previously fostered in Louisiana with multiple dogs, while I was recovering from my surgery. I had no issues at all there. However, since being in Canada, I had a couple of incidents with my last 2 foster homes. I was fine for the first couple days but then I wasn't. I'm not sure what happened or why but I bit the resident’s dogs. This was not my proudest moment. I am now in a pet free foster home and should continue to be in one for my forever home. I don’t seem to have any issues playing with dogs outside as I have been playing with multiple dogs frequently outside. Although I think being muzzle trained would be ideal. I did see a cat and did not try to chase them but again pet free is ideal. So about my surgery, I had a hip replacement which took some time to heal. But the good news is that I got the latest brand. Still working on getting used to it, that is probably why i sit funny sometimes or on walks I tend to pull. I am learning not to jump on people but I get so excited to see people I forget my manners. I am not nervous around anyone. This is probably not a good trait cause I don’t know what stranger danger is. I do not bark at all. Actually, that is not true my foster daddy once caught me barking in my sleep but that’s about it. He was getting worried that I might have been mute. I’ll accept love in the form of pets anytime but my favourite thing is food. I am totally food motivated. I don’t even care if it’s edible. I love the vet! I just went for a full check up and the place is like willy wonka chocolate factory. It’s pretty much unlimited treats, while they poked and prodded me but its totally worth it. I got a clean bill of health. I love going for walks! I’ll sit at the door and wait to go out to do my business. I don’t mind going in the car with you, I love the front seat especially if you have heated seats, what can I say, I am a princess. I’m a super cuddly gal that would love to lie on the couch with you or on top of you. My foster paw-rents gave me my own bed but I’d much rather be in theirs. I am also crate trained, you just have to point and say kennel. Most times I listen but I will always listen if you have food in your hand. I am a really good girl who is looking for a home where I can be your one and only. If you think I am the girl for you, fill out an application today.
