My comments:
It’s a tough market out there for everyone ! Sellers need to buy after they sell their properties, unless they are downsizing to a smaller condo unit or it is a warzone everywhere. It is difficult to find good deals anywhere. We begin 2022 with just over 5000 homes for sale and this is the lowest level we have seen in more than 30 years! Low inventory is the main issue. Total inventory graph from 2011-2021 below.
In a competitive market like this, we are doing our best to serve our client buyers and sellers. For sellers, we use our Exponential 4C system to market/sell for the highest dollar possible.
For our buyers, a complete buyer’s roadmap includes: Area Scouting, Ground Game, Sniper Mode, we have customized a buying system that produces results and maximises value for our clients.
From our bubble to yours, wishing you an exciting, optimistic and healthy 2022!
