As we head deeper into Spring the trend towards a more balanced market persists in the Okanagan. With more active listings and less sales than in April of last year, we can understand how the frenzy of 2021 has since... shifted to a more sustainable marketplace. The once expected multiple offer scenario on listings has decelerated and REALTORS have expressed their increased experiences of a balance between buyers and sellers. A large factor that affects the market value of a home is the purchasing power of the average consumer. In April the Bank of Canada raised their key interest rate by 50 basis points, hiking the overnight rate to 1%. Effectively, a higher rate decreases the overall home buying budget that a consumer can afford and over time it can ebb overall market value. Let’s keep in mind that the overnight rate reached our now 1% in 2010 and 2017 as well and climbed to 1.75% in 2018. With this being said, there are far more components that determine the value of a property and the general consensus leads with a desire for all participants in a real estate transaction to have an equal playing field. This is exactly what we are starting to observe in the Okanagan and the interest rate may have been a contributing factor. An interesting trend to highlight is the amount of year to date single family sales that reached over the 1 million dollar mark. In 2021, 31% of sales fell into the $1 million + category while in 2022 67% of sales have. With the year to date average residential house price now reaching $1,233,122 versus the $974,471 of 2021, these figures are certainly logical. Ultimately, the market stays strong with a glimpse of balance on the horizon. The Okanagan still reigns as a preferable location for work and play alike. As we head into warmer days we will very quickly find ourselves with the familiar sights of watercrafts zipping on the lake, tourists walking along the boardwalk and the liveliness of summer events.
