Real estate market report for April 2022

Welcome to the monthly real estate statistics newsletter.
 
As we started to see from last months statistics report the number of active listings is increasing, although we are only now just about at last years numbers and still less than in 2020. Sales are on the decline and still below the numbers we were seeing last year. However, when compared to the median price for last year we are still higher, although in Nanaimo we are not seeing the month on month increases that have been common place over the last couple of years. In Parksville/Qualicum the median prices are still on the rise but sales are approximately 20% down on last year.

Synopsis for Nanaimo
 

The graphs below show the median sold price, sold numbers and number of new listings since the beginning of each year (freehold homes only.)

Median Sold Price:


 
 

Sold Numbers:


 
 

Number of new listings:


 
 

The following graphs shows the % difference of the housing price index (HPI) from the same month 12 months ago. It is split into the different sub-areas (the overall figure for Nanaimo is on the left of the graph) and is for single family homes.


 
 

The following graphs are for Nanaimo and show the sales numbers against new listings and sales numbers against total active listings. This is helpful to show how the market is doing as the closer the 2 lines come together on each graph generally indicates a busy active market.





 
 

The following graph is for Nanaimo and shows the months of inventory. This is the time it would take the current freehold, single family homes for sale, to sell, if no new homes were listed, which indicates whether we have a sellers, balanced or buyers’ market.


 
 
 
These figures do concentrate on single family homes but if you would like similar information for other property types, such as apartments or patio homes, or specific geographical areas of Nanaimo or Parksville/Qualicum, then I would be more than happy to discuss those with you as well.
 
As always I hope you find these monthly newsletters informative and if at any time you or any of your friends, relatives or co-workers are looking for a professional realtor to help them buy or sell a home, or just have a real estate question, please call my personal cell, 250-739-1228, or drop me an email.
 
Thank you,
Ian
