Greetings from beautiful Whistler BC, here is your Whistler real estate market update!
The weather has continued to be absolutely incredible this late summer/early fall! This is probably my favorite time of year, with a bit of crispness in the air, beautiful blue skies, and the color changing leaves……love it!
Let’s take a look at the real estate stats for August 2012, and compare it to previous years:
- Overall, Aug was a great month, much higher sales volume and $ amount compared to the previous few years.
- Again, the # of listings is the lowest it’s been at this time of year than it has been over the last 5 years!
- Sales to date, higher so far in 2012 than the last 4 years
- What’s selling? In August Chalets were the real difference, much higher sales volume and dollar amount than the previous few years.
