November 2018 Stats:

Seasons greetings from beautiful Whistler BC, here is your Whistler real estate market update!

Sales to active listings = 23% for November 2018, in November 2017 it was 32%.
Breaking that down into property types: Detached homes = 13%, Condos = 20%, and Townhomes sit at 30%.

  • **This ratio is calculating the monthly sales compared to the total # of listings, basically if there were no other listings how long would it take for the listings to run out.
  • Referencing this statistic:  <12% is a buyers market and puts downward pressure on price, between 12%-20% is a balanced market with no pressure on price, >20% is a sellers market with upward pressure on price.
