Is your Regina bungalow dream just a pipe dream?

Your housing market is really something, eh?

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

Well, *tânisi* Regina. Darlene Chicken-Lawson here, wrapping up a week where we talked a lot about your housing market, and *oh for sure* there's a lot to unpack. It's been the main chatter around City Hall, with folks trying to figure out if we're going to see those prices finally come back to earth, eh?

### What we've been hearing

* Housing prices: Still high, still making folks scratch their heads, wondering if they'll ever afford that little bungalow in Normanview. * Rental market: Tight as a drum. Good luck finding something decent downtown near Scarth Street without paying an arm and a leg. * New developments: Some talk, but not enough to really ease the pressure. We need more than just promises, you know?

It feels like everyone's holding their breath, waiting to see what the spring market will really bring. We're all just hoping for a bit of a break, so folks can stay living in the city they love, eh? It’s not just numbers on a spreadsheet; it’s about *wâhkôhtowin*, about community, and making sure everyone has a place to call home here on Treaty 4.
