4. Market Reports - September 2023
CITY OF GUELPH - SEPTEMBER 2023 MARKET REPORT
The City of Guelph real estate market continues to be a seller’s market this month, despite a jump in inventory slowing down the market. Although unit sales and sales volume is down from last year, the median and average sale prices have risen compared to last September.
GUELPH/ERAMOSA - SEPTEMBER 2023 MARKET REPORT
The real estate market in Guelph/Eramosa remains a balanced market this month due to the fluctuation in inventory. Average and median sale prices have dropped a bit compared to last year, likely caused by the small jump in inventory. It is important to note that this market is smaller, and more prone of erratic change.
CENTRE WELLINGTON - SEPTEMBER 2023 MARKET REPORT
Centre Wellington swings back into a balanced market this month due to a rise in inventory. We are seeing a consistent jump in both unit sales and sales volume this month, and median and average sale prices have either caught up, or surpassed what they were in September of 2022.
Testimonials

Dave you exceeded our expectations in every way. You did the required without fail. You were always on time, always cheerful and helpful. You showed us what we were looking for and never anything that we were not interested in. You pointed out the good and the not so good on the places we viewed. You provided us with excellent access to various experts to assist when needed. You assisted us in submitting offers on places of interest, including guiding us on possible price points and strategies, and helped us learn from rejected offers. All good stuff, but what sets you apart and greatly above our expectations was how you explained the process to us. It was really noticeable when you explained the various real estate documents involved. You took the time to clearly explain the legalize in plain understandable language, so when we re-read the documents, we understood what they were saying. The contrast between you and our lawyer who subsequently had us sign legal documents was startling. When I asked what some of the legal papers meant, he simply re-read them. I can read, I just did not understand. You, on the other hand, helped me understand. Thank you!

David was such a helpful and supportive agent when I was selling my house. He assessed which things to change/update to enhance saleability and referred excellent tradespeople as well as providing guidance on staging. David’s sales strategy – pricing and open houses etc – showed his deep experience and knowledge of the market.
We sold immediately! Similarly, David provided essential guidance, knowledge and moral support during the process of buying. They say buying/selling a house is one of the most stressful activities in which people engage. David takes the stress out and cares for his clients while using his business acumen on their behalf. David is the best!

David, I was going to send you a card, but opted for this instead. The fact that you sold our home in 3 days cannot go unnoticed, however, the entire process and experience is much longer, as we all know. For starters, Its stressful. Arriving at a decision to sell, followed by the readiness to do so, takes time and energy. We can't thank you enough for making this as seamless as possible. Your knowledge of our market and professionalism resonated as soon as we spoke, giving us comfort in this important decision at the cusp of major change. In particular, our collaboration around everything from price, timing, staging, photos, advice and care of our property made this a pleasure and exciting new phase of our lives. On behalf of both of us, thank you again, and please feel free to use our names if you ever need a reference. Kat and John

We recently sold our home/business location in Rockwood and worked with David and Jan on the sale. I’ve known them both for years and felt confident that they could assist us and they didn’t disappoint. As a mixed-use building, ours was a little less straightforward to sell (compared to a residential property) so experience dealing with commercial properties was beneficial. They were also patient and organized, which my husband and I appreciated throughout the process. I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again. Thanks David and Jan!

My experience with David was excellent. He always responded to my communications quickly via email or text message and made every effort to work with my schedule for viewings. David was able to help me find a great property even with my limited budget, and I would gladly work with him again. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

David and Jan were beyond helpful when we sold our house, neither my wife or I had ever sold a house and they walked us thru the process right at our kitchen table for over an hour happily answering any and all questions we had regarding the process, from listing to final sale and all the steps in between. During the process they both kept in constant contact with us regarding viewings, ensuring that the schedule was flexible and allowed us time to make any changes to our daily routines to accommodate viewings. Once we received offers, Jan & David sat with us in their office and gave us their professional opinions regarding the numerous offers to ensure that we made the best decision for us when it came to which offer to accept and also gave us information on the closing procedures that would be involved. I would have to say that I do not think we could have had a better experience in being first time home sellers than working so closely with Jan & David and I would recommend their services to anyone in the market to sell their home.

When looking for our first home, we were happy when, by chance, we found Jan. She has such a positive attitude and always wants to make sure you are getting what you want in a home. Her patience was appreciated as it took us awhile to find something that was right for us.

Working with David and Jan was great! They were patient and knowledgeable. Being brand new to the process they made sure I took my time and was comfortable with all my decisions. Their advice was spot on and really helped my make a confident choice. Couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with - they were only interested in me being happy and comfortable with the result, and did everything to get me there!

I highly recommend David and Jan in any real estate transactions. They are truly experts in every detail of the business. I felt completely at ease during the sale of my property during the peak of the pandemic. They have done an amazing job setting up virtual tours and ensuring COVID protocols were strictly adhered to for in-person showings. They were patient and understanding with me at times of my uncertainty. They truly care about you. Thank you David and Jan.

David was a wonderful real estate agent and a great guide to moving to a new city. I’ve known David for a few years and I always knew that when I needed someone to help to find the perfect house and to help sell our old house, David would be the one to help. He helped alleviate the stress of a short closing very manageable and with Jan on the team, there was always someone we could trust for any of our questions and concerns. Thanks so much for all that you did!
