And The Race Goes On!

In the last quarter of 2021 quarantine shut downs remained in place but we began to see a gradual, but careful re-opening and relaxation of policies. The vaccine had been administered to a great majority of the population and we began to see a light at the end of the tunnel. Real estate sales, in number of sales differed only slightly from 2020, pretty much keeping pace in that regard. What we did see was a continued increase in the prices of homes, a decreased inventory and buyers becoming more and more creative with their offers so that it stands out above the many offers that home sellers receive. And the race for homes goes on!

Let’s take a look the numbers and see how much prices have gone up despite the fact that there has been no significant difference in the number of sales.
