Vancouver Island Shifts Toward Buyers
We’re seeing some notable changes on Vancouver Island as the market shifts into more of a buyer’s territory. In late Q3, overall property sales dropped about 13% compared to last year, while buyers took a more cautious approach and available listings gradually increased. For single-family homes, 279 sold during this period—down around 8% year-over-year and 6% from the previous month. Condos softened as well, and townhouses experienced the steepest decline in sales.

Active inventory hit 4,500 units across all property types, up 4% from last year, though supply for condos and townhouses still lags a bit behind last year's numbers. Despite these shifts, benchmark prices have held steady, and homes priced right continue to attract motivated buyers—showing that both patience and realistic expectations are paying off for those on either side of a transaction.

From my experience living and working in the Port Alberni area for over two decades, I know how factors like seasonality, local elections, and broader economic uncertainty can influence real estate activity here. With talk of possible rate increases as far out as 2027, it’s a reminder that our market always has its unique rhythms. If you’re looking to navigate these changes, it helps to have someone who understands the island’s nuances firsthand.
