You’ve built equity. You’ve built memories.

Now it might be time to build what’s next.

For many homeowners across Waterloo Region, that next chapter could mean:

  • ✨ Right-sizing into something easier to maintain
  • ✨ Finally buying that cottage getaway
  • ✨ Using your home’s equity to create new options

Whatever your next step looks like, understanding your equity today can open doors tomorrow. Maybe even ones with a view like this.

Let’s talk about your options

📊 Waterloo Region Real Estate Update – October 2025

October brought a quieter month for home sales, but it also opened the door to new opportunities for buyers. Here’s what’s happening in our local market:

  • 🏠 569 homes sold — down 6.7% from last year
  • 📈 New listings up 7% and inventory up 23%
  • 💰 Average price: around $735,000
  • ⏱️ Average days on market: 31

With more homes to choose from and borrowing costs easing slightly after the Bank of Canada’s recent rate cut, we’re starting to see renewed confidence from buyers heading into the winter months.

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to make your move, this could be it. Melanie and I are always here to help you understand the numbers and explore your options with confidence.
