With another interest rate hike, the Bank continues to expect economic growth to stall through the end of 2022 and into the first half of 2023. Inflation is expected to ease over the next year, falling to 3 per cent in 2023 and returning to the 2 per cent inflation target in 2024.

Regular buyers seem to be feeling the squeeze the most while cash buyers seem to be making the most the conditions created by these inflation curbing policies. This may explain why the luxury and high-end real estate market seems to be holding up best at the moment.

If you are unsure about what these changes mean for your unique real estate goals, I would be happy to talk and provide targeted resources and data for your area.

With interest rates remaining high, 2023 is expected to be a tough year for the Canadian economy.

Across the province, on the supply side, slow sales activity has resulted in higher inventory, but from record lows. Forecasts are now predicting a lower-than-normal market activity for the upcoming year.

While this can create opportunities for people looking to buy, proper preparation is now more than essential than ever for sellers in this market.

Need help understanding the data and making a plan? Simply reach out and I will be happy to help!

Do you have a winter home maintenance checklist?

Adding the tips above to your list (or creating one from scratch) can help you and your family not only feel cosy at home but also avoid unexpected breakage, leakage or surprises.

When it comes to housing, small things can have a big impact so preparation always pays off!

What are you doing to get your home ready for winter? Comment below!

Winter is almost here ❄️

It can be confusing for new homeowners to know how to get their home winter ready. Adequate home maintenance can not only help avoid stressful incidents but also increases the levels of overall comfort for the people living in the home.

As a REALTOR®, my goal is not only to help my clients buy or sell a home. I'm also here after the sale to make sure my clients are comfortable in their new home and increase their equity. This means providing tips on how to keep their home in good shape.

Fireplaces are big during the winter months. So whether your fireplace is gas or wood powered, getting a professional chimney sweep to clear out any built-up soot or debris is a MUST on a home maintenance list. Doing this at least once per year can help prevent chimney fires and save a lot of headaches.

Follow for more tips to get your home ready for the colder months.

With interest rates remaining high, 2023 is expected to be a tough year for the Canadian economy.

Forecasts predict a lower-than-normal market activity for the upcoming year but this doesn't mean that selling is impossible if life circumstances are creating an urgency to sell.

Even in tougher market conditions, sellers have a chance to stand out when selling their home if they take the extra time to prepare. If you're feeling unsure about how to navigate current market conditions, I am here to be your local resource and help you create a plan to reach your real estate goals.

Get in touch today.
