As you can see, we have successfully surpassed the inventory levels of last year at this time this week. I think it was bound to happen eventually, and I'm actually surprised it hasn't happened sooner. I was looking at pictures the other day that were taken today last year, and it was of my fella's playing in about 3-4 feet of fresh snow. So if it was a crusher of a winter last year, and a dandy of one this year, then you would expect activity to be somewhat affected by the difference. I'm just surprised it took so long. That being said, I still think there was some solid ground work early this year, and the true reflection of activity up to this point will be reflected early this summer. Buyer activity is still up and sales are still much better than the last couple of years, and even with the uncontrollable variable of the weather in play, the market is showing critical signs of improvement so far this year. Stay tuned to keep track of all the ups and downs of the Halifax real estate market, and be sure to check back soon for the February wrap up! Thanks for stopping by!
