Halifax Real Estate News Compliments of Andrew Perkins Issue 1.2 - February 2021 The weather may be cold but the Halifax Market is hot! The Halifax Real Estate market has shown no signs of slowing down in these typically slow winter months. The number of Single-family homes and condos currently for sale has dipped to below 500. To put that in perspective, there are over 1000 real estate agents in Halifax, and normally around this time of year, we have over 2000 available listings on the market.   January saw a huge increase in the average price in comparison to last year: almost 20%! Even with this increase, the number of sales remained steady. If you are thinking of selling your home and capitalizing on this hot market, click the link below for an instant market evaluation. Buyers, if you are thinking of purchasing in Halifax, I cannot stress this enough, hire an experienced agent who knows how to work in this competitive market.  There is a good chance that you will be competing with other buyers for the property you have fallen in love with and having someone in your corner who has been through these multiple-offer situations will help guide you so you can secure that perfect home.   - Andrew Perkins   Instant Market Evaluation!
