 "As the term suggests, a balanced market means that many of the key housing market indicators, such as price, are stable and conditions therefore don't tilt in favour of buyers or sellers," Sandra Wyant, REBGV president said. "If you plan to enter the market today, identify your needs, consult your REALTOR and work to build a 'win-win' scenario with the people on the other side of the sale".
