The Q3 numbers are in, and yes, the HRM market eased a wee bit. But the sky isn't falling. 

Compared to Q3 last year, sales declined 3.8% and the average sale price dipped 1.4%. Buyers have more choice, and homes are taking a little longer to sell. 

One number caught my attention: 38.3% of available homes adjusted their asking price during the quarter. This is where experience matters. Understanding the competition and what buyers are responding to helps sellers make informed decisions about pricing and presentation. 

There were still 1,350 homes sold this quarter. People are moving, and opportunities are out there. 

Thinking about making a move in 2027? Now is a great time to start planning. Whether you're considering selling, buying or both, we can talk through your options and what you can do now to get ready.
