Hello,
As we step into a new year, we’re seeing clear signs that the Central Okanagan continues to strengthen as one of Canada’s most desirable real estate markets. For buyers considering a move in 2026, the data from 2025 paints a compelling picture — one that highlights confidence, stability, & long-term value.
This past year delivered some of the most notable luxury sales ever recorded on MLS in our region. 28 properties over $4 million sold in 2025, with an average sale price of $7.5 million. These results aren’t just impressive — they signal the confidence of high-end purchasers who understand the lifestyle, privacy, & investment security the Okanagan offers.
Several sales stood out:
• A record-setting $32 million waterfront sale, the highest MLS sale ever recorded in the Okanagan & among the top residential sales in British Columbia’s history.
• A $17.5 million estate in Carr’s Landing, reinforcing strong interest in our lakefront corridor.
• A $10.5 million luxury residence, adding to the year’s unprecedented momentum.
When compared to 2024, the number of sales over $4 million increased by 57%. Over the past five years, 2025 stands out one of the highest annual average in the luxury market.
What does this tell us? The Okanagan is firmly on the map. Buyers at every level — including those purchasing some of the most elite homes in the province — are choosing our region for quality of life, investment confidence, and long-term growth. It is a clear signal that our market continues to mature & attract attention across Canada and beyond.
For those considering a purchase in 2026, conditions remain favourable:
• Pricing stability paired with long-term upward trends
• Strong demand for well-located homes
• Increased national recognition of the Okanagan’s lifestyle & value proposition
