As we put another year in the books, it will be one to look back on and reflect the progress that the market made in 2016. We witnessed some ups and downs, new mortgage rules, interest rate fluctuations and various other influencing factor changes. Overall though, the 2016 market saw the return of the buyer, which was a welcome change from recent years. It also saw an unusal listing reluctance from sellers, or some other factor(s) that kept property additions lower than recent years. So far, the market year has reported averagely, with overall activity starting the slow recovery from the holiday season. All activity across the board is up this week, and in usual fashion, there was a ton of inventory that came off the market. This could be listing contracts that set to expire on the 1st of January, but the big question with these products is if they will end up returning to market to try again this year. Annually, January has a bit of an activity surge, then tapers off when winter has its full grip on the city. The overall inventory gap as narrowed at this point, but if things continue on the same trajectory as last year, we should see that gap widen even more this year. You'll have to stay tuned to see how 2017 turns out! Any predictions? Thanks for stopping by! WEEKLY ADOPTABLE We simply can't believe that we have had no interest in this handsome boy.
