Whistler market shows signs of shifting towards a balanced market.
The total dollar volume of sales in Whistler is down almost 20% compared to last year. Contrastingly, the median sale price across all property types has increased by 26% year-over-year. It is evident that listings have been selling more quickly than they were in 2021, with a 56% decrease in the average number of ‘Days on Market’ (DOM) across all property types. The total accumulative number of Active Listings in 2022 is 32% lower than in 2021. This lack of listing inventory is clearly impacting the total number of sales, which is similarly down 34% year-over-year.
Residential Chalets, Townhouses and Condos have seen similar trends this year, with reduced listing inventory – properties are selling faster and for higher median prices. Phase I properties have been selling very quickly with an average DOM of only 18 days. There have been about 50% fewer vacant land sales than this time last year.
Phase II Hotel Condos and Shared Ownership properties stand out as the only two property types that have outperformed last year in total sales volume. The median sale price of a Shared Ownership property has increased by an astonishing 82% year-over-year. The total number of Phase II Hotel Condo sales has increased 40% year-over-year.
When comparing May 2022 to the previous month, we see that active listings increased by 20%, and the total number of properties sold decreased about 40% month-over-month.
