why this spring may be a prime time to put your home on the market and share

00:00:39.317 --> 00:00:45.737
a remarkable success story that will catch your attention let's dive in january's

00:00:45.737 --> 00:00:47.977
all MLS sales reached 722,

00:00:48.377 --> 00:00:54.077
a solid 10% jump from January 2024, and even 1% above the five-year average.

00:00:54.457 --> 00:00:58.177
On the dollar volume side, the market recorded over $258 million,

00:00:58.797 --> 00:01:01.177
a 9% increase compared to last year.

00:01:01.897 --> 00:01:08.437
Meanwhile, active listings came in at 2,597, 14% fewer than last January.

00:01:08.957 --> 00:01:13.577
That scarcity can be a real advantage for sellers. Fewer properties to compete

00:01:13.577 --> 00:01:17.397
with could translate into faster sales and more substantial offers.

00:01:18.997 --> 00:01:25.077
Now let's talk residential detached. Winnipeg saw 447 sales in this category,

00:01:25.537 --> 00:01:27.237
1% higher than last year.

00:01:27.437 --> 00:01:31.577
The average price climbed 4% to around $413,000.

00:01:32.817 --> 00:01:37.277
If those numbers don't grab your attention, consider this real-life example.

00:01:37.277 --> 00:01:44.797
A Garden City home recently listed at $350,000 ended up selling for $401,000.

00:01:45.317 --> 00:01:49.457
That's a perfect snapshot of the competitive environment we're seeing right now.

00:01:50.877 --> 00:01:56.457
Buyers are eager, listings are in shorter supply, and multiple offers are becoming more common.

00:01:56.777 --> 00:02:00.777
In other words, if you've been on the fence about selling, it might be time

00:02:00.777 --> 00:02:02.237
to hop off and make a move.

00:02:04.495 --> 00:02:10.615
The condo market also showed momentum, 111 units sold in January, up 12% year over year.

00:02:10.935 --> 00:02:16.515
However, the average condo price dipped about 10%, hovering near $249,000.

00:02:17.715 --> 00:02:21.375
While that might sound like a downside for sellers in the condo segment,

00:02:21.615 --> 00:02:26.055
it also means more budget-friendly options for first-time buyers or investors,

00:02:26.315 --> 00:02:27.815
so demand remains strong.

00:02:29.755 --> 00:02:35.595
Many industry insiders predict spring 2025 could be a powerful seller's market in Winnipeg.

00:02:35.815 --> 00:02:40.055
With inventory levels lower than in previous years and buyer demand rising,

00:02:40.335 --> 00:02:43.435
there's plenty of opportunity to capitalize on the current climate.

00:02:44.255 --> 00:02:47.235
If you're thinking about listing, this might be your moment.

00:02:47.755 --> 00:02:52.015
Of course, every property and every neighborhood is unique, so discussing your

00:02:52.015 --> 00:02:55.255
