HAPPY HOLIDAYS

It's been an interesting year to say the least. The one word I was hoping would disappear from the lexicon of course is COVID and it appears I'm not getting that wish for Christmas.

I'm working on a post for early January where we can look back on the predictions we made early in 2021 and review how accurate our crystal ball was. We've certainly had an interesting year. Real estate as a topic has become in my opinion even more dominant than the talk about the pandemic. There are a lot of discussion points within real estate this year and depending on where you are in the real estate market it was a year full of disappointment and bad news or one where you felt like you just won the lotto. We will have a lot more to say about that in the coming weeks.

What I really wanted to tackle today was to say thank you.


Thank you to our subscribers and clients. Your feedback has been invaluable to us and helped us to bring you more valuable content this past year. In my opinion we'll move that marker considerably higher again in 2022. We're grateful that you see value in the information and assistance we provide.


As I said earlier, this year has certainly not been without challenges. I'm particularly proud of the work the Home Group Realty team has done to help clients find their dream homes despite record low inventory levels, ongoing COVID restrictions and the challenges in a market that has increased over 30% in value over the previous year.


It's time for a bit of a breather. The Christmas holidays are a time of celebration, from a religious perspective as well as a non-religious perspective. It's about fellowship, good cheer and gratitude. Gathering in an appropriate manner with family and friends to celebrate all that life has to offer and to look forward to a new year with hope and ambition.


So however you celebrate, however you gather, the HGR Team and I wish you and your family all the best during the Christmas season.


As for me, I think I'll start with a sip of Scotch and settle in to watch my favourite Christmas movie, Christmas vacation.

Merry Christmas to you all!
