Keith Kenny, a realtor from Century 21 Optimum with 13 years of experience, discussed the Halifax real estate market. He noted a slight increase in inventory, cautious optimism among buyers, and the impact of political and economic uncertainties. Buyers are now more cautious, with many offers being rejected. The average home price in HRM is around $633,000, with anything below $600,000 being highly competitive. Kenny emphasized the importance of accurate listing prices to avoid wasting time and setting unrealistic expectations. He also highlighted the need for transparency in transactions to avoid buyer's remorse.
