We are working around the clock to find you a property regardless if it is listed for sale or not.
Sellers, there has never been more demand than there is today. Here’s what that means in terms of numbers; historically a strong market in Whistler meant that there were between 700 and 800 properties for sale. When the global crisis hit and our market slowed we had 1200 homes for sale. Today, there are only 261 properties in all of Whistler on the market!

We are seeing a lot of pressure for chalets under the price of $2.2 million. There have been no sales between $2.2 and $4 million so far this year. This price range is surprisingly slow as buyers seem to be jumping up in their budget and paying more for larger homes, properties that may be newer and offer 5,000 plus square feet. When you look at performance in our Luxury Market for homes priced over $4 million; we have had some historical high sales. Recently we had a record sale of $22 million dollars for a single-family home located in Stonebridge and a lot sale of $10 million. There have been many sales over $5 million which is an indication of the confidence that Whistler offers as an investment and also a result of our weak Canadian dollar.

Please work closely with us so we can make sure we’re on top of our game and working hard for you.
