Your Regina home just got even pricier, eh?

Your Real Estate Journey Just Got an Upgrade, eh?

This is Regina — yeah, we know what it sounds like, and we've heard your joke. Now sit down and listen.

*Tânisi* Regina. Darlene Chicken-Lawson here, giving you the rundown of what we’ve been chatting about this week from City Hall. It’s been a week where the housing market, oh for sure, has been the big kahuna, eh? Seems like every corner we turn, folks are talking about how the cost of a home here is just… well, it’s a lot.

### The Real Talk on Real Estate

We’ve seen the numbers, and they're telling us what we already feel when we drive past new builds out in Harbour Landing or up in the Hawkstone area.

* Housing prices are still climbing, making it tough for first-time buyers.

* The conversation around accessibility in real estate for folks with disabilities is getting louder, and honestly, it’s about time.

* Even when civic data slows down, the *talk* about housing doesn't.

It’s not just about the dollar figures, though, is it? It’s about being able to put down roots, to have a place you can call your own here on Treaty 4 land. The City Hall reports, even when they're sparse, always come back to this. It’s our reality, and it shapes so much of what we do and how we live, eh?

This is Regina — yeah, we know what it sounds like, and we've heard your joke. Now sit down and listen.
