Synopsis
In Nanaimo for October 2015 there were 380 active listings of single family freehold homes and 230 in Parksville/Qualicum.
The graphs below are for Nanaimo and show the average sold numbers and average sold price since January 2012.
The following graph shows the % difference of the housing price index (HPI) from the same month 12 months ago. It is split into the different sub-areas and is for single family homes.
There is still a continuing shortage of homes for sale which we have been seeing for a large part of the year. This has meant that there are still buyers out there waiting for their next home to be listed. Therefore if you are thinking of listing, or you know anyone who is, please give me a call and I would be more than happy to discuss the current 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
