Halifax Real Estate News


Compliments of the Andrew Perkins Real Estate Team

Issue 2.11 - November 2022
 
Where did November go? This month went by fast, and here we are with only one month left in 2022.
   
 November in the Halifax real estate market tends to slow down as we approach the holidays. This year was no exception. There were only 395 new listings brought to market, compared to October, which had 455 new listings. 397 properties sold in November, with an average price of $505,604. In November 2021, there were 589 properties sold with an average price of $474,722. Current inventory remains low at only 724 single-family homes, condos and duplexes for sale. I don't see the market getting close to a balanced market anytime soon.  

The rising interest rates have stalled buyers' activity, and sellers looking to move up to a bigger home are putting that purchase on hold to see how things go in the coming months. Hopefully, the feds will stop raising rates and we can see some stability in our market.  

As we enter the holiday season,  we want to wish every one of you a great holiday season. 
Please tune in next year when we will be making changes to the newsletter to better inform our readers about the Halifax Real Estate Market news and happenings.  

Kind Regards,

Andrew and Jordan

October 2022


 

The number of sales has decreased substantially in comparison to this time last year. This is to be expected. The real estate market in 2021 was an anomaly that we all knew was not sustainable.
