Halifax North End Real Estate Market Update

Market Watch Wednesday

Due to an illness I have been battling the last couple of days I am unable to do my video blog.  I was hoping I would be well enough this morning to get it done.  Unfortunately that is not the case.  I did however have the slides ready to go and I have included them below.

20112010The Numbers

Looking at the numbers for the North End of Halifax we can see that both average price and the number of sales are down quite a lot to begin the year.  Being so early in the year it is hard to gauge the accuracy of these numbers.  Also the fact that there is very little inventory at present in the north end with only 28 active listings which would obvisiouly push the number of sales down.  With the spring market fastly approaching I expect these numbers to change.
