OCTOBER MARKET BRIEF: Windsor-Essex, Michigan & Florida
With fall here and winter approaching, disciplined pricing matters more than wishful thinking. Here is where the data stands across our local and cross-border corridors:
🔹 WINDSOR-ESSEX RENTALS: Days on market have pushed to 45 days on average. Holding out for an extra $75/mo creates costly vacancies that wipe out gains. Quick placement with vetted tenants is the only path to real yield.
🔹 MORTGAGE REALITY: Borrowing remains expensive and lenders remain strict. Buyers have more inventory and room to negotiate, while sellers must price accurately from day one.
🔹 HEADING SOUTH THIS WINTER? Todd and Christine handle properties on both sides of the border—from Florida seasonal rentals to home-watch services while you're away.
🔹 CROSS-BORDER INVESTING: Southeast Michigan continues to offer strong price-to-rent ratios, even factoring in the currency exchange.
