If so, you're in good company! Halifax is one of the fastest growing cities in Canada, with nearly half a million residents, and it's no wonder why. From its vibrant downtown core to its easy access to the ocean, Halifax has plenty to offer.
One of the most popular neighborhoods in Halifax right now is the North End. This area is known for its shops, cafes, and proximity to downtown. And despite the strong appreciation in the housing market throughout Halifax, it still remains affordable compared to other comparable cities across the country.
But living in Halifax isn't just about the North End. This city is also home to a wide range of schools for every level and six universities. Plus, with a short drive in either direction, you can be at a beach in no time. Whether it's a stroll down the boardwalk or a walk through Point Pleasant Park, the ocean is never far away.
Now, let's talk about the Halifax real estate market. According to recent stats, 26% of homes sold in the week of Jan 17-23 sold for over list price. And with historically low inventory levels, now may be the perfect time for sellers to list their property. In fact, 75.38% of all listings brought to market have sold, with an average sale price of $639,848 and an average of 31.99 days on the market.
So whether you're looking to buy or sell, Halifax is a great place to be. Contact a local real estate agent to help guide you through the process and find your dream home in this ocean-side city.
