☀️Ramping up for a great Summer!☀️

May 17, 2022

Holy weather batman, these double digits are giving us the feels! Is the warmer weather here to stay..we sure hope so! We love patio season and with the newly enhanced sidewalks, we are going to see more patios opening up on Main Street in Huntsville. 

We don’t have a crystal ball but it looks like we’re heading towards a more balanced market. A reminder for both buyers and sellers: It’s extremely difficult to “time the market”. If you’re planning to purchase look for properties that fit your needs with a high likelihood of long term value regardless of timing. If you’re thinking of selling it may take longer to find a buyer (less multiple offer situations occurring lately) but sale prices are still at record numbers. Just our two cents but feels like a good news story on both sides!

In this edition:

  • Are Muskoka hospitals getting a revamp? ?
  • Blind Bidding- will it help the market slow down or is it a benefit for Sellers? ?
  • Muskoka 2/4 Craft Beer Festival is back! ?
  • We some incredible new listings in Huntsville on the way: A newer purpose built legal duplex and a 73 acre bungalow with 1.5 car garage
