February is well underway and we are still in the thick of an unprecedented real estate market with persistent reports of year-over-year high sale prices, relentless demand from buyers, decreasing inventory, shorter days on market, insufficient housing starts, and speculation about what post-pandemic markets will look like. With low inventory and expectant interest rate hikes from the Bank of Canada, competition between buyers is pushing housing prices up even further.
There is so much information and terminology flying around. Our customers have been asking pertinent questions, such as…
“Should I list my home first, or buy first?” “Should I stay put and renovate?” “Why do I need a home evaluation?”
“What is a bidding war?” “What do market projections look like for the Southern Georgian Bay and Muskoka markets?” “How can I attract the buyers migrating out of the GTA?” “What if complications happen between accepting an offer and closing?” “Should we wait until Spring to list?”
Dealing with the complexity and confusion of the current market shouldn’t be your job - it’s ours! We can help clarify these questions for you and work with you through the process, from start to finish. We thoroughly understand our market. Our group has over 50+ years combined experience and are market experts in Collingwood, Blue Mountain, Muskoka, Owen Sound and the Bruce Peninsula. We want you to love where you live, so let’s start the discussion! |

Getting Smart: How Home Technologies are on the Rise |
LinkedIn: Sven Odia
Buyers are increasingly interested in homes built or retrofitted with smart home features. The smart home market is globally one of the fastest growing markets, expanding at a rate of approximately 25% per year. It is driven by increasing interest in smart devices and appliances like voice-activated audio systems, colour-changing LED lamps, video doorbells, and app-enabled thermostats. As smart technology becomes more readily available, some buyers prefer smart homes with fully integrated systems, and sellers are thinking about taking action to meet the demand. From novelty to normal: smart devices for every home.

3 factors why people are moving from Toronto to Simcoe and Grey Bruce Counties |
Collingwoodtoday.ca
It’s a growing trend in Ontario’s booming real estate market: after spending most of their adult life living in posh Toronto neighbourhoods like Rosedale, North Riverdale, and The Beaches, many homeowners are cashing out and leaving the GTA, heading for smaller Ontario towns like Owen Sound, Meaford, Wasaga Beach and Collingwood.
What are the major factors driving these city dwellers to leave amenity-rich suburbia behind in favour of more rustic settings? “The number one reason is lifestyle,” said Max Hahne of Engel & Völkers and co-partner in the McGregor Hahne Group. “They’ve pretty much decided on a lifestyle change and are familiar with the markets they want to go to." |

Curative Architecture GG Magazine 1/22 |
Sometimes architect Tomoaki Uno leaves out windows entirely. Sometimes the residents of his houses float in the air like birds. The Japanese architect’s principle: health that derives form beauty. An energy-giving environment. Wabi-sabi, the principle by which architect Tomaoki Uno builds houses, can’t really be translated - it’s an intuitive experience. Uno takes inspiration from the tea ceremony, ikebana and Japanese poetry. His goal: a healthy life in harmony with nature.
