October has certainly been a slower month for sales. Compared to October of last year, sales in October 2022 were down 42% in volume. 41 sales this year versus 70 sales in October of last year. There was a slightly larger 45% drop in sales in Vancouver when comparing October of this year and October of last year.
However, unlike the Vancouver market, where sales in October dropped in volume by 13% compared to September, the volume of sales in October in Whistler was up from September by 25% and the listing inventory in Whistler is not increasing. So interesting times ahead - obviously the higher interest rates and inflation is affecting the market but buyers are still keen, if they want to be using their recreational property this winter. As it is often a lifestyle choice, some people are saying why wait.
