Halifax Real Estate News


Compliments of the Andrew Perkins Real Estate Team

Issue 2.7 - July 2022
 
The middle of summer always seems to be a little slower in the Halifax real estate market historically.

Last month, only 638 new listings were brought to market; in June, that number was 854. The number of sales in July was 750; in June, there were 777. Not much difference. The average selling price year to date is $569,734 for single-family homes, condos and duplexes. I wanted to look at the average monthly price for this year to see how we are trending.  

January - 493,768
February - 492,655
March - 564,418
April - 592,873
May - 566,791
June - 565,503
July - 569,734

It does seem like we are seeing some stabilization in the prices, which is good in my opinion; we can't keep going up forever. As of right now, we currently have 822 properties for sale in the HRM. We are still solidly in a seller's market with less than two months of inventory. We are creeping up but nowhere near a balanced market. Properties are not getting as many competing offers as 3-4 months ago, but agents are pricing properties at market value now and not underpricing, trying to get multiple offers and drive up the price. 

Where do I see the market going? I think Halifax has a very resilient market, unlike some of the bigger cities in Canada that are seeing price drops. Halifax is still undervalued compared to those cities. I think we will see a slight regression in price, but nothing too crazy.  

If you are considering selling, the days of 10-20 offers on a property may be over; however, it is still a great time to sell as there is limited competition. If you are buying, you can be a little more patient and check out multiple properties without jumping on the first one. We are here to help you navigate this challenging market. As always, please feel free to reach out to us with any questions you may have.

Halifax Real Estate Market
June 2022


 

Inventory continues to climb in Halifax. Last month, we had 471 single-family homes, and 87 condos for sale. This month, these numbers have increased to 544 and 92. This is great news for buyers. More inventory means less bidding wars, less competition and more options when searching for a property.
