SALES ACTIVITY CLIMBED SHARPLY IN PENTICTON’S HOUSING MARKET THIS PAST WEEK!

Thirty-one sales closed in Penticton last week! That’s Up a WHOPPING 18 sales from the 13 sales the week before, and up 12 sales of where we were at this point last year. 42 new listings also came to market, adding some fresh variety to a pool that, despite the recent activity, is shrinking. For buyers, there’s still selection, but the window is narrowing. For sellers, the direction of travel is working in your favour. Homes that are well-priced and well-presented are moving, and the underlying conditions are becoming more competitive, not less.

Highlight of the Week: A single-family home in Penticton’s Wiltse/Valleyview neighbourhood closed at just over $1.8 Million. Across all 31 transactions last week, buyers averaged 97% of asking price, with 4 properties selling at or above list.

Inventory Watch: There are currently 457 active listings across all categories in Penticton, down from 566 at this time last year, a 19% year-over-year decline. This isn’t a blip; it’s a trend that’s been building quietly over the past month or so. Worth watching closely as spring momentum continues to build.

New to Market: 151 properties have come to market across Penticton in the past 30 days. That’s a solid wave of fresh inventory adding genuine variety across price points and property types. For Buyers: You have had an unusually good run, but the conditions that made it that way are starting to change. Available inventory has been tightening for several weeks and the selection that existed even a month ago is not what it is today. The value in this market was never just about price; it was about having the time to decide and the options to choose from. Both are shrinking. The indicators are there for anyone paying attention.
