Happy Thanksgiving! ๐Ÿงก

Iโ€™m so grateful for the simpler life here in south Georgian Bay. I love the slower fall days, the crisp autumn air, and the beauty of this incredible region.

Thankful for family, friends, and of course all the wonderful clients who have trusted me to guide them through one of lifeโ€™s biggest milestones.

Wishing everyone a cozy day filled with gratitude, good food, and the company of those who matter most.

The September real estate statistics for Southern Georgian Bay are officially in!

As we transitioned into early autumn, the regional market saw a modest shift in momentum. While overall sales volume adjusted across the region, pricing remained mixed with a notable uptick in average sale prices year-over-year.

Here is a quick look at how Southern Georgian Bay performed overall last month:

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿก Average Sale Price: $826,568 (โ–ฒ 2.72% YOY)
๐Ÿ”‘ Unit Sales: 201 (โ–ผ 18.95% YOY)
๐Ÿ“Š Sales-to-Listings Ratio: 24.57% (โ–ผ 20.83% YOY)

The bottom line: ๐Ÿ‘‡
๐Ÿ“‰ Unit Activity Shift: September saw 201 properties change hands across the region (down 18.95% compared to last September), reflecting a quieter, more selective pace among buyers as autumn settled in.

๐Ÿ’ฐ Average Pricing Edges Up: The monthly average sale price rose to $826,568 (up 2.72% year-over-year), highlighting continued demand for premium and well-positioned properties.

โš–๏ธ Firmly in Buyer's Market Territory: With 818 new listings entering the market, the monthly sales-to-listings ratio landed at 24.57%. Inventory levels continue to give purchasers ample choice, time, and negotiating leverage.

Fall in South Georgian Bay isn't just about the stunning autumn leaves, it is also the most delicious time of year to explore what is growing, baking, and being poured around our region! ๐Ÿฅง

My latest blog post is your guide to taking a mini fall outing and savouring the best local flavours of October.

Here is a taste of what we are diving into:

๐Ÿ Start with the apples: From farm-gate c***r at T&K Ferri Orchards to exploring the famous Apple Pie Trail through Thornbury, Meaford, and Clarksburg.

๐Ÿฅ• Bring the Harvest home: Local farm market stops at Goldsmithโ€™s in Thornbury and Currieโ€™s in Collingwood to gather Thanksgiving essentials (or just a fresh pie!).

โ˜• Bakery & coffee detours: Cozying up at hidden gems like Gibson & Company in downtown Collingwood or Cranky Bear Cafรฉ in Thornbury.

๐Ÿฅ‚ Local c***rs & evening drinks: Sampling farmhouse c***rs at Grey & Gold or unwinding with cocktails at Collingwood's new 1920s Paris-inspired Bar Bijou (pictured here!)

You don't need a whole weekend planned, sometimes just an afternoon and a few delicious stops are all it takes to make an ordinary day feel special.

09/02/2026

The Bank of Canada made its latest rate announcement today, September 2, 2026, holding the key overnight interest rate steady at 2.25% for the seventh consecutive time.

With global energy price pressures and shifting trade policies creating an unpredictable backdrop, the central bank opted for continuity as it carefully balances inflation risks against economic growth.

Key Highlights from Today's Decision:

๐Ÿ›๏ธ Seventh Straight Hold: The policy rate remains unchanged at 2.25%, bringing continued stability for Canadian borrowers.

๐ŸŒ Navigating Global Uncertainty: The Bank noted that while domestic economic activity has shown signs of rebounding, international trade tensions and global market volatility continue to weigh on the long-term outlook.

๐Ÿ“ˆ Inflation Watch: Total inflation edged up to 3.0% in July due to higher energy costs, but core inflation measures remain relatively stable around 2%.

๐Ÿ  What It Means for Local Real Estate: If you have a variable-rate mortgage or HELOC, your payments remain fixed following today's decision. For buyers looking at fixed rates, bond markets will continue to reflect global news and domestic inflation data.

In times of global upheaval and changing market dynamics, predictability is a welcome constant for local buyers and sellers across South Georgian Bay.
