How was your Spring Break? Mine? Well, it was incredible! We were able to get over 5 million in accepted offers and sales. The market like the ski hill had a very late start but it is awesome to see the action and continuing interest.
With the exemption from the short term rental ban and foreign buyer ban we fully expect that the interest from investors and relocating families will continue to grow exponentially.
I am so grateful and humbled that I get the opportunity to work with, collaborate with, learn from and do deals with Realtors who are consummate professionals and elevate our profession in every way.
Thank you to Jared Franczak Jesse East Mark Hetherington Brendan Stoneman Luke Cook I appreciate your hard work with me while navigating these new market conditions.

This January we saw 24 sales at the resort, which is fairly on par as last year saw 23 sales. Again, fairly on par was the total volume of sales reaching 14 million this year, up 2 million from last years number. A number that was saw a big difference in was inventory. Not news for anyone that has been keeping tabs on the Kelowna market, but for Big White, this is a large difference that has just been affecting the market. January 2021 had 73 active listings including condos, lots, etc.. This past January only 34 active listings were available on the market. More than a 50% decrease in inventory. Which, leads us into the current happenings as we continue through February.
People are flocking to the resort to purchase vacation rentals for themselves and their families as well as purchasing investment homes to provide revenue.

Whether it’s a lot for building your dream chalet, a commercial investment up to $10 million, a studio or anything in between.
Plans include doubling the amount of chair lifts, almost tripling the skiing terrain, and expanding mountain biking trails. Additionally the resort plans to add golfing, zip-lining, more equestrian adventures, and cat skiing. Winter camping and health/wellness facilities are proposed. Of course, with more terrain and activities that means additional parking, accommodations and amenities. The current bed units at the resort is approx. 10,533, and if the proposed 2020 Master Plan stays on track, the resort will see 20,600.
The resort made many necessary changes in order to adhere to the new government guidelines. Such as being a no cash resort, adding sanitizing stations throughout, and capacity control. The mandatory face covering rule is being enforced along with maintaining social distancing guidelines. The resort strives to ensure visitors and residents alike are safe and have done a great job in doing so. Check out all of the resort’s new procedures and protocols
