Can you tell I'm spending way too much time at my computer? Calgary is having a mini boom and I'm trying to figure out why we're not having the same excitement in Okotoks!
Well, Okotoks has a very predicatable real estate market. We have a busy spring (April-June) then everyone goes on vacation during the Summer, then we have an average fall. I'm sure most of this relates to the school calendar and anyone moving within Okotoks, wants to be moved and settled before the school year starts again. For the last two years, there have been more sales in June than any other month in the year. I expect the same to happen this year.
So if you're thinking of selling in Okotoks, it's probably time to get your house on the market. Even in June 2012, for the houses that sold, it took on average of 74 days for a home to sell. Now of course there are so many other factors that influence these numbers but doesn't it make sense to use them to your advantage?
