Total Active Halifax Condos – 497

The Condo market has slowed down with regards to number of sales year over year.  There are a lot of new builds coming on board now and in the future.  The market is currently in a little downturn with regards to number of buyers although average price continues to rise, just slightly year over year.  The average days on market are up by 23 days which is a result of all the new builds.

A couple of new builds that I think a potential Condo buyer should be looking at are;  Armoury Square, Armoury VillaFalkland Street Condos and Spice.  The Falkland Street condos have already increased prices by 10 – 15K on select units.  A good investment for sure!  Be sure to check back regularly for more market updates and news.  If you are looking to buy or sell Halifax Real Estate be sure to contact me.
