Still, we did see a decent amount of new additions to the market, sales, and listings that accepted offers this week causing a slight reduction in the overall inventory. The six month median held fast this week, other than the six month condo sale price, which received sizeable reduction, punting it back to the values as reported last month. The absorption rate remains insanely low, as well as the overall inventory, which has caused the same fevered activity for new listings as reported in the Spring. If annual trend gets back on track, we should see the overall inventory and activity in general decline until it hits the bottom of the market year; last week of December. The big question on everyones mind is if this market will sustain for 2022, or if will continue to cool and perhaps enter into a correction year. More and more folks I talk with are of the mind that prices are here to stay, and if there is a correction it will be small. Issue with that is that we witnessed one of the largest upticks in property values Halifax has ever seen in such a short time, so prices, although drastically higher than two short years ago should only remain should the market outlast the period of volatility. Meaning, the longer this market persists, the more properties sell at these inflated prices, the more likely the overall values will stay. Should we hit a stop sometime soon and the market begins its turn, property values will become vulnerable as inventory rises and interest wains. Only time will tell, so be sure to stay on track by tuning into the Halifax Real Estate Blog! Thanks for stopping by, and stay safe out there! The Weekly "Adogtable"Hi everyone! My name is Chandler and I am a 4 year old, border collie mix boy weighing around 45lbs. I came from Texas several months ago, I thought I had found my forever home but turns out I wasn't quite home yet. I'm a little shy and it takes me a little more time to trust people, but once I warm up I love a good scratch, especially on my ears or under my chin, and I also love a good cuddle, particularly first thing in the morning! I enjoy the company of other dogs, but prefer to watch rather than play. I'm unsure of kids, I tend to scare easily, so I would do best in a kid-free home. As far as cats go, I haven't been around any, so I'm not sure about them yet. I walk really well on my leash, but it's really important that I'm always on a double leash because I am able to back out of my harness when I get scared. I can sit and come when called, but I will need some patience and training when it comes to body handling and confidence building; I tend to get nervous if I feel trapped or cornered and when walking through doorways. I'm not a big fan of toys right now, but I may learn to enjoy them over time. Car rides on the other hand, I'm definitely a fan of those! I'll just curl up and have a nap on route to our next big adventure together! At home, if there is someone around, I like to follow them around the house. If I'm alone I won't be destructive but I think I'd like someone home more than not. I am happy to say I am housetrained as well! I know I have a few things to work on, but I promise that your patience will be rewarded! So, if you're looking for a sweet and smart pup to join your family, I'm ready to go to my forever home with you! Do you think we'd be a good match?
