Hubbards

I truly love this area of Nova Scotia. I call it "The Gateway to the South Shore" A gateway to maritime heritage and the roadway to coastal living. But there is more than just seaside shanties and lobster fishermen in this beautiful little spot.

Real Estate Outlook for Spring 2024 – Buckle Up

Our office had the senior economic analyst from the Canadian Real Estate Association speak to us this week, and his message was clear: "Buckle up."

HRM Snapshot: Over the past 24 months, Spring has consistently seen home sale prices that were 10-15% higher than in Winter.
