Although sales reported a typical "winter week", the lack of new additions to the market actually gave the overall sales to list ratio some weight. Compared to last year, there is a lot of positive changes that should be noted, even if marginal. Comparably, new listings are down, sales are up, offer activity is up, there's more expired/cancelled inventory pulling from the market, days spent on market are less, values for both tracked products are up, and the absorption rate markedly lower then that of last years report. The only pressing thorn is the inventory amounts. With condo inventory finally hitting par and eventually reporting under previous reports earlier in the year, single family homes and the overall inventory are still showing record heights. The gap is closing however, and one could hope that with the final stat falling in line, that we could see the start to a refreshing new market year. Thanks for stopping by! WEEKLY ADOGTABLE Victor is a sweet, shy yet energetic boy searching for a new home. Victor knows most of his basic commands, and he even does a cute little dance for treats! He can be nervous in new settings, so his new family will need to be patient and take things slow with him until he is fully comfortable. We are recommending children over the age of 12 in his new home where he can be shy, and having a doggy friend will be dependant on the temperament because he can be a little dominant.
