🍁🧡 Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

Today is about slowing down, gathering around the table, eating a little too much and appreciating the people who make life so special. 🦃🥧

We’re incredibly thankful for our family, friends, neighbours and everyone who continues to support Team Lea. Whether we’ve helped you find a home, shared a laugh or simply crossed paths in our community, we’re grateful for you. ❤️

🏡 NORFOLK COUNTY WEEKLY MARKET UPDATE 🍁
October 5–11, 2026

Thanksgiving week brought some interesting numbers to Norfolk’s housing market! 🦃

If you’re buying or selling in Simcoe, Waterford, Delhi, Port Dover or the surrounding areas, here’s what you should know.

📊 THIS WEEK’S NUMBERS

🏡 43 new listings
🔄 2 back on market
🤝 12 conditional sales
⏳ 15 pending sales
🔑 13 closed sales
💰 Average sold price: $605,692
📉 27 price reductions
📈 0 price increases
⏸️ 1 suspended listing
⌛ 4 expired listings
❌ 17 cancelled listings

👀 THE NUMBER THAT STOOD OUT?

27 price reductions!

That doesn’t mean every home has lost value. It means some sellers are adjusting their asking prices to attract buyers.

🏠 SELLERS, PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR COMPETITION

Buyers are comparing homes carefully. If similar properties offer more for less, your asking price may need another look.

🔑 BUYERS, THIS COULD BE YOUR OPPORTUNITY

If a home you loved was previously out of budget, check again!

Price adjustments may open the door to new conversations, and there may be room to negotiate depending on the property.

🍁 THE TAKEAWAY

13 homes closed and 15 went pending this week.

Buyers haven’t disappeared. They’re simply looking for the right home at the right price.

Sometimes the best opportunity isn’t about waiting for spring. It’s about recognizing what’s available today.

❤️ Happy Thanksgiving from Team Lea!

🏡 BRANT COUNTY WEEKLY MARKET UPDATE 🍁
October 5–11, 2026

Thinking about buying or selling in Paris, St. George, Burford or the surrounding communities?

Here’s what happened leading into Thanksgiving! 🦃

📊 THIS WEEK’S NUMBERS

🏡 16 new listings
🔄 2 back on market
🤝 6 conditional sales
⏳ 11 pending sales
🔑 5 closed sales
💰 Average sold price: $597,980
📉 6 price reductions
📈 0 price increases
⏸️ 2 suspended listings
⌛ 3 expired listings
❌ 6 cancelled listings

🏠 WHAT SELLERS SHOULD KNOW

Only 16 new listings entered the market this week.

That’s fewer new properties competing for buyers’ attention, but pricing and presentation still matter.

Buyers want to feel confident they’re getting good value.

🔑 WHAT BUYERS SHOULD KNOW

With 11 pending sales, homes are still moving toward closing.

If you’ve been waiting until the market feels less competitive, this could be a good time to explore your options.

You may find sellers who are more open to discussing price, conditions or closing dates.

🍁 THE TAKEAWAY

Fall doesn’t mean the housing market stops. It means understanding your local competition becomes even more important.

Whether you’re buying your first home or thinking about selling, we’re here to help you make sense of the numbers.

❤️ Happy Thanksgiving from Team Lea!

🏡 BRANTFORD WEEKLY MARKET UPDATE 🍁
October 5–11, 2026

Thanksgiving week is here! 🦃 But is the housing market slowing down, or are buyers still making moves?

📊 THIS WEEK’S NUMBERS

🏡 59 new listings
🔄 3 back on market
🤝 23 conditional sales
⏳ 28 pending sales
🔑 12 closed sales
📉 22 price reductions
📈 1 price increase
⌛ 2 expired listings
❌ 28 cancelled listings

🏠 SELLERS, HERE’S WHAT THIS MEANS

With 59 new listings and 22 price reductions, buyers have options. Your home needs to stand out, and pricing it correctly from the beginning is especially important.

🔑 BUYERS, DON’T OVERLOOK THIS!

There were 23 conditional sales and 28 pending sales this week. Buyers are still making decisions!

Some sellers are adjusting their prices, which may create opportunities to revisit homes you’ve been watching.

🍁 THE TAKEAWAY

Thanksgiving may mean a quieter weekend for some families, but the market hasn’t stopped.

The right price and the right preparation matter more than trying to predict the perfect season.

Wondering what your home is worth or what you could afford? Let’s have a conversation!

❤️ Happy Thanksgiving from Team Lea!

The first thing everyone does when they walk into 48 Holkham?

They look up. 👀

Soaring ceilings, arched windows, and a staircase that makes an entrance. Then you keep going and find the gas fireplace, the updated kitchen with an island for pulling up a stool, and sliding doors out to the deck.Upstairs, the primary has a vaulted ceiling and an arched window of its own.

Your child is heading to Laurier or Conestoga in Brantford. You’re thinking tuition, groceries and… where are they going to live? 📚🏡

Before you sign another lease, could buying a condo for their school years be worth exploring?

📍 Unit 212 at 111 Grey Street, Brantford
$319,900 | 3 bedrooms | 2 full bathrooms

A place for your child to live, with the possibility of friends sharing the home and contributing rent toward some ownership costs.

With a shared kitchen, spacious living area and laundry right in the unit, there’s room for everyday student life. And when graduation comes around? You’ve already talked through the next step.

It starts with a family conversation, a realistic budget and advice from your lender, lawyer and accountant.

Have a child studying in Brantford? Let’s see whether this could make sense for your family. 💬

You know that friend you’re always sending house listings to? Maybe it’s time for a different conversation. 👀🏡

Buying your first property doesn’t have to be a solo mission. Buying with a friend could mean combining your down payment, sharing expenses and making a plan to build equity together.

📍 43 Richardson Street, Brantford
Duplex | $484,900

A duplex brings possibilities to explore: renting both units, living in one and renting the other, or each having your own space under shared ownership.

But being great friends is only part of it. Get preapproved together and have a real estate lawyer help you put the responsibilities and the “what if one of us wants out?” plan in writing.

Send this to the friend you’d consider buying with. Then let’s talk about whether it could work for you. 💬
