December 2025

Happy December!

The days are shorter but WOW the Christmas lights this year are amazing. With all the craziness this year, especially since January, it feels like more people than usual are adding lots of lights to 'turn a frown upside down' :) Hope you're out driving lots to feel the magic! 

Thank you to everyone for another amazing year of business, referrals and support! As always, I really appreciate your trust, your business and our wonderful relationship! It continues to be a privilege to be invited to be part of your life, to discuss your needs, ideal wants, your goals and your big picture planning and aspirations. Thank you!

What a year... in short, the scales seem to be tipping in favour of the entire province as activity across Nova Scotia is growing substantially!  

12,867 total MLS firmly sold real estate transactions of all types across the province with less than half (5523) in HRM.

Focusing on residential only...

10,336 Residential MLS sold across the province - again, less than half in HRM (4992)

8,839 single family homes across the province at avg selling price $492,469/median sp $460,000 

(4,086 in HRM at avg sp $637,298/med sp $585,000)

693 condos at avg sp $474,903/med sp $431,500

(622 in HRM at avg sp $485,457/med sp $435,000)

The rest are either cottages, mobile/mini homes and some cross listed duplexes. 

Focusing on Commercial MLS Solds...

134 Commercial buildings, all types, MLS sold across NS avg sp $703,701/med sp $385,000

(31 in HRM at avg sp $1,541,970/med sp $1,275,000)

(Please note that this list is not an entire representation of the commercial market as many commercial buildings are still sold exclusively) 

Tipping point pricing, affordability thresholds, lifestyle choices, shifting demographics, population growth and province wide opportunities all seem to be playing in a roll in our changing and ever growing market. Exciting times for sure!

I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday break with friends and family. With our family's latest addition, Baby Wallace :), 'Baby Brawdder Waawith'  to our 2.5 year old granddaughter :) this Christmas is sure to be filled magic! Feeling very grateful for sure :)

All the Best, Michele
