How I Met Barbara Corcoran
13 May 2025

So like literally all of my friends have been asking how did you end up working with Barbara Corcoran? Well, it's a funny story because it goes back to probably a little more than 10 years ago. We had or I was part of a mastermind group so it was all the top agents in North America at times about 50 of us would get together every year and kind of share best business practices and we had hired her to come out and speak to us and then afterwards we got talking kind of negotiating in a sense to have her  represent us and work with us and do commercials with us but at the time she wasn't known, she wasn't on Shark Tank at the time and so she wasn't known. So I asked my friends, I said what do you think of this you know and they were like I don't know who you're talking about so I actually turned her down and You turned down Barbara Corcoran? Yeah well, Crazy, but no one knew who she was so. Very smart lady, obviously knows real estate really good and just a great person and then once she got onto Shark Tank then people started to know her more obviously and then that's when we got connected again and it's been a really good relationship and it's interesting because you can see why people like her are in positions that they are like she is just genuinely nice and obviously in a sense I'm nothing in comparison to her but but she remembers, she knows you, she smiles it's like you know every time like I only see her every couple of years but we're in contact all the time but you know she's just a genuinely nice, nice person that you know somebody you want to hang out with every day. Absolutely, absolutely. And at the time she would have been working with people like Donald Trump ? A few years ago? When did she start doing business? Oh yeah, yeah I think she was very similar to my mom like as far as when she started. Similar age and she was very driven, much like my mom in real estate to do a lot of deals and uh but again not so much on the driven side but just again on a great personality side that's what made her successful and that's what made my mom successful too is is really having that connection with people, people knew that she really cared about you know how how they're going to be in the house. Yeah that's so important.

Winnipeg Market Update December 2025

11 December 2025
What is the biggest mistake that homeowners make this time of year if they're thinking of selling in the Spring? But first, what happened in the Winnipeg Real Estate Market in November. In November in Winnipeg we saw house sales down 7.3% and prices down slightly at 1.3% In condos we saw sales down 23.1% and prices down 2.9% Obviously the numbers aren't fantastic in November but we'll see how December looks one month doesn't make a trend. Now the biggest mistake I see people making this time of year is that they say they're going to sell in the Spring but when they think Spring they think May/ June when they really should be thinking February/March because February March you always see a very high intensity to the market because there's not a lot of supply on the market which means you need to get us out now in December or early January to start making a plan this way not only will your house sell faster but you'll get more money for it as well. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900

Winnipeg Market Update November 2025

12 November 2025
What is the one calculation you want to make sure you're doing if you're thinking of selling your house in November or December but first what went on in the Winnipeg Real Estate Market in October. In October in Winnipeg we saw house sales down 14% over last year and prices down 1.4% In condos we saw sales down 33% but prices were up at 12.6% Now the numbers in October don't seem great however one month doesn't make a trend so we'll see what the market does in November. Now if you're thinking of selling or buying a house in November or December the one calculation you want to make sure you're aware of is well I said a friend who was thinking of selling their house and they said that we're gonna wait until February or March because we feel that the markets going to be better then and we'll hopefully make 2% more if we sell next year and that does usually happen in the last number of years where we see an increase in price going into the next year. Now the only problem with that is it's going to cost him approximately $2,000 a month to hold on to his house from now until not only February but if possessions not till March or April it could end up costing an extra 10 or $12,000 so it's important to make sure you do the calculation to figure out is it worth it even if the market is going to be up 2% next year is it worth it to hold on to your house and sell then or is it better to take profits now and get out and be done with it. It's also important if you're looking to buy because this time of year is a great time of year to buy because you can buy now and get that price bump coming into February or March next year. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900

Winnipeg Market Update October 2025

8 October 2025
If you don't want to lose money selling your house in the Fall you have to do these three things but first what happened in the Winnipeg Real Estate Market in September. In September in Winnipeg we saw the average price of a house increase 3% over last year and we saw sales increase 4.4% in condos we saw basically no change in the average sale price and sales decrease 23.3% As you can see the numbers in September are very strong and we expect this to continue into the Fall however, the Fall market is always the same it's very very strong until the weather changes and it can fall right off which is why there's three things you have to do or you will lose money selling your house in the Fall. No. 1 make sure it's priced properly No.2 make sure it's marketed well with great quality videos and pictures and aerial photos and finally No. 3 is making sure your house is staged well so it will absolutely show its best. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900

Winnipeg Market Update August 2025

12 August 2025
If you're buying a house in Winnipeg right now or thinking of buying a house I'm going to give you a great tip that's going to literally save you tens of thousands of dollars but first let me tell you what's going on in the Winnipeg real estate market. In July in Winnipeg we saw house sales fall 6.2% but prices increase 4% In condos we saw sales decline 23% but prices increase 7.4% As expected the market continues to be very strong in Winnipeg. How are you going to save tens of thousands of dollars if you're thinking of buying a house right now or in the near future? Well, pay attention to the market in August. Every August it's the exact same thing. We see houses come to market and for one reason or another they get missed, maybe it has to do with kids going back to school, life just being busy at the end of August but certain houses get missed. We just had a client last week they probably got this house for $20,000 under what they would have paid for it if they'd bought it in April or May but right now pay attention to these houses they're going to come to market and not sell and you just have to be on them and you can get really good buys right now. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900

Winnipeg Market Update July 2025

3 July 2025
As a Realtor the No. 1 thing I would never do when selling my house in the Summer. But first, what happened in the Winnipeg Real Estate Market in June? In June in Winnipeg we saw the average price of a single family detached house go up 12.5% over last year. We saw sales however, decrease 3.4% In condos we saw the average price increase 6.3% and sales were down 24.6% As you can see, the market in Winnipeg continues to be really strong. We're still seeing lots of bidding wars, increase in pricing and increase in sales. Now, the one thing I would never do if I was selling in the Summer, I wouldn't underprice my house. The reason is even though in July and August we still see lots of sales we don't see the same kind of intense demand that we see in March, April, May and June which means that if you underprice your house you may not get the same expectation of a high bidding war that you would have seen early in the year just due to the lack of demand because there's a lot more inventory on the market. www.JudyLindsay.com 204.925.2900
