TICK TOCK, BUYERS: PENTICTON’S INVENTORY IS DISAPPEARING WEEK BY WEEK

The Week in Numbers: Sixteen sales closed in Penticton this past week. That’s a drop of 15 from the 31 we saw the week before, though we’re still sitting one sale ahead of where things stood at this point last year. Another 43 new listings arrived, bringing fresh variety to a pool that, even with all the recent activity, keeps getting smaller. Buyers still have selection to work with, but the window is tightening. Sellers, the momentum is leaning your way. Homes that are priced right and show well are moving, and conditions are sharpening, not softening.

Highlight of the Week: A single-family home in the Wiltse/Valleyview neighbourhood closed at just over $1.5 million. Across all 16 transactions, buyers paid an average of 97% of asking, and 3 properties sold at or above list.

Inventory Watch: Penticton currently holds 471 active listings across all categories, down from 577 a year ago. That’s an 18% year-over-year decline, and it isn’t a one-week wobble; it’s a pattern that’s been quietly building for the past six or seven weeks. Worth keeping a close eye on as spring momentum keeps gathering.

New to Market: 158 properties have come up across Penticton in the last 30 days, a healthy wave of fresh inventory spanning a real range of price points and property types. For Buyers: You’ve had an unusually good run, but the very conditions that made it that way are shifting. Inventory has been tightening for weeks, and the selection you had even a month ago isn’t the selection you have today. The value here was never only about price; it was about having time to decide and options to choose from, and both are shrinking. The signs are there for anyone paying attention.

7 Single Family Homes
5 Townhomes
