SCOTT’S MARKET PERSPECTIVE
“BUYERS HERE WANT LAKE ACCESS AND PRIVACY WITHOUT LEAVING KELOWNA BEHIND.”
LAKE COUNTRY SOUTH WEST is currently firmly favouring buyers. With 65 active properties against 15 closed sales in the past 90 days, selection is substantial and pricing discipline matters. Recent sales have taken a median of 68 days and closed at 97.3% of asking, leaving buyers modest room below asking. 20 current listings have already had a price reduction, 31% of active inventory.
Out here the details do the heavy lifting. Where a home sits, how much of the lake it takes in, the size of the lot, and how close you are to the water or the wine trail can all move the price noticeably from one pocket to the next.
