Welcome to the monthly real estate statistics newsletter.

We are starting to see an increase in our inventory levels, although this is normal as we approach the spring market. So although the difference to last years numbers is decreasing we still have a shortage of homes for sale and many active buyers looking. The numbers over the next few months should indicate whether we are starting to see any changes in this market.

Happy New Year and welcome to the first monthly real estate market report of 2022.

Well what a year it has been... yet again. We have seen a continued shortage of properties for sale with an abundance of buyers which has resulted in many multiple offers on homes listed for sale. On the graphs below we have added the average % changes for the whole year so you can see that there has been a 30% increase in sales but a 37% decrease (50% in Parksville/Qualicum) of active listings of single family homes. This has been the main driving force which has seen prices rise approximately 30% in the Nanaimo-Parksville/Qualicum region when compared to the previous year.

In both areas the number of sales peaked in March and that was also the month we saw the most properties get listed for sale. December was...
