Usually January starts with a bit of a hop with the leftover activity from the previous year resuming to finish up their transaction, then wains once the snow flies, but the demand is so high for property that I would be surprised if we even enter the late winter blues market at all. The bones have almost been picked clean as buyers take a look around and see a measly 1,075 products on the market (all categories combined), which is down 50% from this time last year. The entire HRM only has 441 single family homes for sale right now, and that's across all price brackets in all areas! Values continue to push across the board as well, with single family home values entering 2021 with a record breaking week to kick things off. Both sales to list ratios hit below the 100% mark, but the real story can be found in the median prices, as they are reflecting the true nature of the market by pulling data from six months. That picture is a bit different from the weekly snapshot, and shows that both tracked products, on average, are selling 8-10k over list price. This is just the average for a broad brush application, if you were to dig into the market in certain areas and property price brackets you will see extreme variations in sales amounts. Still, as this market carries on, prices continue to inflate as demand drives these sales to historic heights. Will this be the year that things turnaround, or are we in for yet another Sellers year? You'll have to stay tuned to the blog to find out and keep up to date with how the market tracks! Thanks for stopping by, and stay safe out there! The Weekly Adogtable! I'm Manji. I am a 1yr old Catahoula mix boy weighing in at approximately 50lbs. I was surrendered to a shelter in Louisiana because my family didn't have time for me and kept me crated 24/7. So I decided to come to Nova Scotia with a few friends in search of a forever home. On average, it takes 100 shares and 100 likes for a dog to find a home! Please share my story so my forever family will find me!?! I am much more than a Southern boy with fancy markings, I am a dog that is all about my people! My markings and awesome webbed feet are from my Catahoula side of the family, the official state dog of Louisiana. I am highly intelligent and energetic and am certainly eager to please. I would do amazingly well with an active family who is preferably breed experienced. I would probably be best suited for older kids as I still have alot of puppy antics to work on… but with my willingness to please they say I have a lot of potential! I know quite a few commands but I still need some training as my attention span isn't always the best. A few treats and alot of praise and I should be a breeze to train. I did interact with cats at my foster home and was gentle, however when they ran I was quick to chase..but they were always too fast for me to catch. I had 2 doggy siblings in my foster home. We got along for the most part. I did have a squabble with one over a toy and the other I got a little jealous over one day and did not act like the perfect gentleman I should have. Other than that my interactions with other canine friends have been positive. My exercise needs would be medium-high but my cuddling needs are very high. With a human as my pack leader I walk like a champ, always keeping a close eye on you when walking right beside you, sometimes so close that sometimes you might trip over me...oops sorry. I am super fast.. and not too bad on recall. I love the car, so much so that sometimes I jump right in the front passenger seat. I am a social bug and love meeting new people but sometimes I just get so excited I jump right up on them. My foster dad says that's a big no-no and we're working on this. I am housebroken and love a comfy warm bed, being a southern dog who can blame me! Still being a young dog I need to have access to some chew toys..and I also like to cuddle with plush toys.. but they may end up being a chew toy at some point. I also love tennis balls. Being in a crate for so much of my short life, I definitely prefer to sleep near my person and not in one. I can pretty much sleep in any position. They say I'm a complete bed hog, I say they just need a bigger bed. Are you my forever family? My adoption fee is a $400 donation to help save more dogs like me.
