Halifax Real Estate News


Compliments of the Andrew Perkins Real Estate Team

Issue 2.10 - October 2022
 
As we enter the last couple of months of 2022, the Halifax Real Estate market continues to chug along.   

 We just can’t seem to get above 800 homes, condos and duplexes for sale. The inventory has hovered around that number for 4-5 months now. As I suspected, we saw a dramatic drop in sales this month: with the rising interest rates, buyers are deciding to stay on the fence and wait things out. Halifax only had 339 sales last month, compared to 614 in October last year and 487 in September 2022. With the low inventory, prices are not decreasing as much as we thought they might. The average price for October sits at $524,124 compared to $453,155 October 2021. 

Sellers it is still a great time to sell your home, there is very little competition right now. While there may not be as many buyers out there viewing your home as in the summer months, the buyers that are out looking are motivated and serious. Buyers there may be some deals to be had, so don’t get discouraged. The good thing is it is unlikely you will be in competing offers for a home.  

If you are curious to know what the value of your home is in the current market we would be happy to do a complimentary market analysis for your property. Just click the button below.  

Buyers, have you checked out our buyer package? We are always happy to meet, even if you are just starting your journey and are not ready to make any moves just yet.

Happy Halloween
Andrew and Jordan
