🔑 Congratulations to J+M on the successful closing of their first home in Lantz!

Their home search included two backup positions, but J+M stayed patient and trusted the process. Mack guided them throughout the search, reminding them that if one home didn’t work out, the right one was still ahead.

That patience paid off. J+M secured a beautiful home in a multiple-offer situation, and we believe it is the perfect fit for them.

Couldn’t be happier for you both.

Welcome home!

We get this question constantly, at open houses, over coffee, from friends who are just starting to think about buying: how much do you actually need to make to buy a home in Halifax? 💸

Here's a simple way to estimate it. Take the home price and divide by four.

That accounts for a minimum down payment of 5% and today's mortgage rates. It won't be exact, but it gives you a real starting point.

$400,000 home: around $100,000 in household income
$600,000 home, roughly the current HRM average: around $150,000
$800,000 home: around $200,000

Your actual number depends on your down payment, your rate, your other debts, and the lender you work with. This just gives you a place to start before you fall for a house you can't get approved for.

If you want to see what's actually available in your range right now, reach out. That's what we do every day, and we love doing it 🏠

We just sold 6 Stevens Road in Dartmouth, and our sellers could not be happier 🔥🏠

We listed the home at $549,900. It saw twenty six showings and eight offers in the first week. It sold at $595,000, forty five thousand over asking, with a late closing that lines up exactly with what our sellers needed.

While it was on the market, it was the number one most favourited listing on Viewpoint in all of Nova Scotia.

Watching this family get the outcome they hoped for, and then some, is exactly why we love this job. Professional staging, the right timing, and a marketing plan built to bring in real competition made this result possible.

Congratulations to our sellers. This is the kind of result we work hard to get for every family we help.

If you or someone you know is thinking about listing this fall, we would love to help you get a result like this too. Send us a message anytime!
