Code Grey…Code Grey! Wow, it's been another roller-coaster week, especially in my home and work life. I talked about it in last week's update how we had a scare in my son's class and had to shift to working from home for the week until we had our test results back, pivoting and relying on my team to an unbelievable amount. Well, I had freedom for a total of 4 days until we got a second call from the principal, telling us that my middle son had a case in his class. It felt like groundhog day; I feel like a pro now when it comes to pivoting and shifting up my entire operations of our business. In addition to that, I know those 7 digits on the back of my health card by-heart after logging in every 15 minutes until I got my negative results again this week.
Only one day into freedom and we saw the local numbers go north of 50+, leading to the code grey announcement. Despite my negative test results, we are shifting our operations back to work-from-home. All while we celebrated the 1 year anniversary of the chaos in our lives.
On the financial end of things, interest rates continue to pop, we early-renewed one of our rental property mortgages this week; even with the rate almost 1% higher than what I signed on our principal home just 2 weeks ago. As I’ve mentioned many times in the last updates, the writing is on the wall that rates will only be going up in the near future, not a bad time to lock in over the long term (note that when I talk about increased rates; I’m talking a difference between 1.5% and sub-3% still; which is an incredibly amazing rate for borrowing still).
From a local real estate perspective, it was almost like the spring market is here already! We had an unbelievable amount of sales, but even more listings. It feels like the shift is here where we are going away from listings being sold in mere hours to listings being sold in days. Want the full scoop on Sudbury's real estate market last week?
