I have sold a property at 437 Watfield Ave in Nanaimo.
See details here
Investment opportunity on a large lot that is located on a no through road that is close to the Aquatic Centre, schools, VIU, University Mall, Colliery Dam Park and Morrell Sanctuary. This spacious home is 1,659 sq ft on the main and upper floors but also has an additional 1,198 sq ft in the under height basement so has huge potential. It will require some sweat equity or you could potentially start over and build on this 8,712 sq ft flat lot that also has alley access so lots of options - including possibly building a carriage house. It has a newer hot water tank and the vinyl windows were done in 2006. The property is being sold 'AS IS, WHERE IS' and is being listed under its assessed value which is pretty rare these days....

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.

Welcome to the monthly real estate statistics newsletter.

Nanaimo is seeing a change as the inventory levels increase so we are finally seeing more single family homes for sale then the same month last year. Parksville/Qualicum still does not have enough inventory and has approximately 30% fewer homes for sale then last year.

Median prices are still approximately 20% higher in Nanaimo but if inventory levels do continue to rise there is a good chance we should start to see prices level off, especially when you factor in the mortgage interest rate rises, the increased cost of living and buyer fatigue from dealing with this real estate market. Although we are still seeing multiple offers it does not seem as frenetic as previously as it is now not uncommon for sellers to receive fewer offers and...
