The Condo Report: Understanding why the average time to sell a condo has shifted to 65 days and what the average sale price of $347,000 means for entry-level buyers.

Buying Strategies: Why "turnkey" and "move-in ready" homes are still seeing multiple offers and selling above list price, and the critical difference between a simple pre-approval and having firm numbers from your lender.

Kris Ramotar, Windsor, Ontario, and Essex County Realtor, breaks down the December 2025 Windsor-Essex real estate market in plain, easy-to-understand language so you can decide whether 2026 is the year to buy, sell, or wait without fear or pressure.

In this episode, Kris explains what the latest numbers really mean for real families. You’ll hear why December had more listings, fewer sales, and slightly lower prices, yet why the full year stayed stable, not crashing like some headlines suggest. Kris shares why local experts are calling 2026 a year of balance and stability, not chaos.

You’ll get two clear takeaways:

For buyers:
More choice. Less panic. Fewer bidding wars. This market gives families time to think, compare homes, protect themselves with conditions, and focus on a monthly payment that feels safe, not rushed decisions like in past years.

For sellers:
Equity is still strong for most homeowners. Homes that are priced right and show well are selling. Homes that are overpriced or poorly prepared are sitting. Kris explains why selling in 2026 is less about timing the market and more about improving your family’s quality of life.

Kris also explains a key idea many people miss: if you’re selling and buying in the same market, the real focus should be the gap between what you sell for and what you buy for, not just one price. For many families, this market can actually make moving up or downsizing easier.

This episode is perfect if you are:

• Wondering, “Should we buy in 2026 or wait?”
• Thinking of selling but worried about prices
• A growing family, first-time buyer, downsizer, or upsizer

 If you want help breaking this down for your family, income, neighbourhood, and goals, reach out to Kris Ramotar, Windsor, Ontario, and Essex County Realtor. A quick, no-pressure chat can help you see your options clearly and decide what makes sense for 2026 without rushing.

Kris also shares his honest take on why the market feels slower during December and January, what usually happens in the second half of January, and why February through spring could bring more listings, more buyers, and more activity. He explains how stabilized interest rates are helping buyers and sellers feel more confident heading into 2026.

This episode is especially helpful if you are:
