“The housing market has been thriving this first quarter across the Region,” says Charlotte Zawada, President of KWAR. “We’ve seen stronger than normal sales activity for the first quarter, with relatively mild weather and buyers coming out in droves, we should be in for a very busy upcoming spring market.”
