Real Estate Activity is on the rise! Talk to a few Realtors and you and the response will be that there is in fact more action in the market place.

The numbers also reflect that as noted above. There was an increase in listings as well as sales. The weather on the weekend was fantastic. That may have something to do with the amount of traffic I witnessed at 38 Overand Place. I made arrangements to stop in at 1:30 prior to the open house to shoot some video. Well Ken Devoe was there and ready and had his signs up promoting traffic. The open house did not officially start until 2:00 but at 1:30 there were people coming through. Must have been at least 6 couples or groups that came thru in that first 45 minutes. We managed to create some videos in between traffic.

Here are the weekly numbers:

The blue shaded areas represent homes that did not sell and are still available. We like to see that gap closer if you are selling. The bigger the gap the stronger the "buyers" market. You can see that sales were sluggish to start January 2009. Not to surprising given the doom and gloom in the air. Afterwards we had President Obama inauguration followed by the great Canadian Budget Coalition stand off that has now been resolved.

Sales are down from last year January '08 versus January '09.

We'll keep you informed. Your Friend in Real Estate, Patrick Galesloot

It's easy for me to say you should buy now, and that the market conditions are positioned in favour of buying. I'd like your input on the real estate market. What do you thinik, should I buy a house today? What advice would you give a young couple starting out today? What about you, have you thought about if now is the right time to buy? Take a few seconds and answer the brief survey I created, I promise it is short. I'll post the results next Monday. Click Here to take survey Your Friend in Real Estate Patrick Galesloot
