Protect, Care & Serve - Kirby

You may be hearing about the real estate slowdown. I don’t see it as a slowdown but rather a balancing of the market. Let’s take a look at Markham as an example. Home prices dropped 17.2% compared to the height in Feb 2022. However, when we compare current prices to June 2021, we see most homes selling at the same price or higher. What is keeping prices up in Markham? It is due to the limited supply of homes on the market. In June 2021, it would take 1.3 months to sell all of the current inventory and in June 2022, it dropped to 1.1 months of inventory. This means there are fewer homes for buyers to choose from. With a decrease in the number of buyers and a decrease in inventory, the result is a balanced market where supply meets demand and prices are stabilized. Watch out because further increases in interest rates will lower demand and increase supply, resulting in lower prices. us at Kirby Chan & Co. - we know this market. Chan

Last month we hosted our 7th Thornhill Community Yard Sale, and the response was amazing! Over the two-day event, hundreds of shoppers braved temperatures in the low to mid-30s and weather reports calling for thunderstorms to support their local community. Luckily, the rain managed to stay away (for the most part), and over 55 homes across Thornhill took to their driveways to make this one of our most successful events yet. This year we added another layer of support for the community by partnering with the local charity Dani. Several vendors donated a portion of the weekend’s proceeds and Kirby Chan & Co. matched those donations. We want to say THANK YOU to all of the vendors and shoppers that made this event possible. We are looking forward to next year! 416-305-8008

Karen Cassel I could not have had a better team to work with than Kirby and Carrie. They were responsive to all of my needs, understood what I was looking for, patiently walked me through all the steps and then sold my house for a record amount for a three bedroom townhouse in this complex. Pleasant, genuine, hard-working and fun to be around. ” Mark C. We had not bought or sold a house in over 18 years and was stuck trying to find a great agent. A friend referred me to Kirby Chan. Kirby was able to find me a new home (21 days ago) and then his wife Carrie stepped in to help sell my old home (6 days ago)....two major transactions within 15 days!!! Kirby and Carrie were amazing... they were able to keep us calm, prepared us for each step along the way and were available for the many questions we had. I would trust Kirby Chan & Co. for any future transaction. ”

Cynthia Ignacio I have worked with Kirby for the sale of 2 of my homes. He was easy to work with, conscientious and knows the business. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again. I trust his knowledge and know that he will do his best. Both homes were sold over asking! Dana Tam Kirby and Carrie have been by our side from the time we purchased our first condo and to now, our first home. They are the ultimate dream team because they play off each other’s strengths and talents. My husband and I didn’t know the first thing about buying a home - let alone, selling our existing one. Especially considering the competitiveness and cutthroat property market in the GTA, we simply couldn’t have done it without them. They were available to answer our questions day or night and “held our hands” through the entire process. No question was ever treated or seen as a stupid one. Thank you guys for making our home search such a pleasant and enjoyable experience! ””
