Kelowna’s July 2026 real estate market told three very different stories.

Single-family home sales increased, townhome sales jumped nearly 15%, and condo sales declined. Meanwhile, active listings dropped by more than 14%.

So, what does this mean for your next move?

Comment “JULY” for a personalized market breakdown.

Every market has its own rhythm.

The Central Okanagan isn’t experiencing a dramatic boom or a major slowdown right now. It’s a market that rewards good decisions.

Buyers have more opportunities, more negotiating power, and more inventory to choose from.

Sellers can absolutely achieve great results, but pricing, presentation, and marketing have never been more important.

The best strategy isn’t trying to predict the market. It’s understanding the market you’re in.

What do you think is the biggest challenge in today’s market: buying or selling? Let me know in the comments. 👇

The market hasn’t stopped.

It has changed.

Today’s buyers are more selective than ever, which means strategy matters more than ever.

If you’re thinking about selling in Kelowna, don’t let the headlines make your decision for you.

44 more initials. ✍️😂

Yes. FORTY-FOUR.

At some point, I wasn’t sure if we were buying a house or signing a peace treaty. 😅

But behind all those initials is actually something important: a Contract of Purchase and Sale is not the place for assumptions, casual changes, or “we’ll figure it out later.”

So here’s your friendly Realtor reminder:
read it, understand it, ask questions, and please… respect the contract. 🙃

Your Realtor will thank you.
Your lawyer will thank you.
And maybe we can save a few initials along the way. 😂

Have you ever had to initial a contract so many times you forgot what your signature looked like?

“Nobody’s buying homes anymore.” Really?

The Q2 numbers in the Central Okanagan tell a different story.

Sales increased every month from April through June.

Buyers haven’t disappeared. They’ve become more selective.

They’re comparing, negotiating, and looking carefully at value.

For sellers, that means pricing, presentation, and marketing matter more than ever.

The market hasn’t stopped. It’s simply become smarter.

What do you think: are buyers becoming more selective, or is the market simply slowing down?

Sometimes the hardest part of selling a home isn’t finding a buyer… it’s finding the right buyer. 🩵🏡

This home received four offers, and along the way we had two accepted offers. On paper, everything looked right. But sometimes, real estate isn’t just about contracts-it’s about people, timing, and trusting your instincts.

My sellers built this home with love, care, and years of beautiful memories. When the first accepted buyers decided not to move forward, we weren’t disappointed, we already had another accepted offer in place.

Even with the first accepted offer in place, I asked my clients to trust me, reopen the market, and hold another Open House. It wasn’t the easy choice-but it was the right one.

The Open House was packed, we received multiple backup offers, and today this special home has found owners who truly appreciate its craftsmanship and everything it represents.

This was one of the toughest transactions I’ve ever had, but it reminded me that the best results often come from having the courage to change direction and trust the process.

To my amazing sellers: thank you for putting your trust in me. Your confidence meant everything, and I’m so grateful I could deliver on the promises I made.

Congratulations on this beautiful new chapter, and congratulations to the lucky new homeowners. May this home bring you as much joy as it brought the family who built it. 🤍
