The home values in Brantford have gone up a significant amount compared to a year ago but the market has definitely changed as a result of the additional inventory of homes that have come on the market.

Terry's Take on the Brantford Real Estate Market

Over the last few weeks in April there were approximately twice as many new listings that came on the market compared to the number of sales. It's still a great market for selling a home but the additonal inventory from all the people who were wanting to "cash in" or "test" the market due to the absolutely insane market and prices that we had back in January and February has caused a slowdown in the market, especially in certain price ranges and neighbourhoods. Right now it's not enough to just put a sign on your lawn and think that you will automatically receive multiple offers and get anywhere between $150,000 to $300,000 above the asking price for your home, and gone are the days when you could price a home on the high side and get away with it because you could still expect to receive $50,000 or so above the asking price. The marketing for a home in this market is critical and being able to get the additional exposure for your home to make it stand out from the crowd will ultimately be the difference between still getting multiple offers for your home or getting no offers at all! Some of the homes are still selling for some excellent prices because the houses for sale in Brantford are still in high demand but the increased supply of homes for sale means the Buyers have a lot more homes to choose from, which allows the Buyers to be pickier than they could have been in the past.
