Rise & Shine

Can you feel that warm spring sun finally coming out?! With a bit of luck, winter should finally be behind us; which means summer is just around the corner.

This year has already been off to a great start, with our first month reporting a year-over-year sales increase of 23% in BC! Heading into spring, market reports continue to show that sales were up from January to February and that there were fewer active listings available in February compared to last year. Combined, these factors indicate that the spring market is about to heat up heading into summer, which could lead to an increase in Vancouverites arriving to the valley.

And while the future remains unclear, so far the COVID-19 virus has not had any adverse effects on the BC real estate market

The Okanagan market has never been more appealing. So if you’re thinking about buying or selling, let’s talk today about the best options for you, your property, and your goals.
