Are you considering buying a home in Halifax?  Do you need your own agent?  Our thoughts are YES.

Every day it is gloom and doom.  We are headed for a recession, claim the media channels.  The housing bubble is about to burst here in Halifax is what the general population feels.  But is it?  

Today I interview, Denis Dommer of Remax Nova and Shane Anderson of Royal Lepage. These agents are "boots on the ground" and just may have some different insight than the rest.

We all know that 2021 was an anomaly for real estate, not only in NS but in most of Canada. Record sales were met locally with properties selling up to and over $100k of listing price. The population grew from 413 000 people in 2020 to 439 819 in 2021. All of NS from 2020-2021 saw an increase of 58 234.

What is in the cards for us in 2022? Depending on who you speak with, some say that the market is slowing down, and we will actually be in more of a balanced market. Others believe that we will continue to grow.

I took the time to interview a group of brokers who are engaging with their office agents each day to get their opinions.
