Media Spotlight: Nooran on CBC
Earlier this month, I discussed the evolving Edmonton housing market with CBC Edmonton AM. In the interview, I highlighted how inventory is building, sales remain steady, and how labels like “buyer’s market” or “seller’s market” often oversimplify the situation.
Detached homes remain strong, condos offer affordability, and townhomes show more flexibility for negotiation. Ultimately, strategy matters more than the market label.
