Raymond homes: what buyers see

Raymond is a town of houses. In the 2021 Census, about 89% of occupied homes were single-detached, and Statistics Canada counted no condominium homes at all. More than half of homes (53%) had four or more bedrooms, and about 86% of households owned their home. That is one of the highest ownership rates among the towns we serve.

The housing stock is a mix. About 54% of homes were built before 1981, and about 29% were built in 2001 or later.

For sellers, that means:

• Big families need big homes. Bedroom count, a finished basement and storage are often what sells a Raymond house. Make sure the listing shows them clearly.
• There's little else on the market. With almost no condos or apartments, a smaller or single-level home can draw downsizers and first-time buyers who have few other options.
• Older homes sell on their updates. List your upgrades with dates: roof, furnace, windows, wiring.
