Home Market Shows Signs of Gradual Recovery in August"},"content":{"rendered":"<div class=\"roomvu-news-container\">\n<p>With over 25 years in real estate and a keen eye for the numbers, I\u2019ve been watching how our B.C. market continues to evolve. In August, home sales across British Columbia dropped by 4.7% compared to last year, landing at 5,653 transactions, and the average price hovered just under $925,000. While the market is showing signs of a gradual recovery, activity is still running below the long-term average. Regionally, it\u2019s interesting to note that Okanagan sales saw a notable 22% decline, whereas South Peace River experienced a nearly 35% increase. As someone who lives and works in the Shuswap, I\u2019m always tracking these trends to help clients make informed decisions\u2014especially given how every local area can move differently. Staying informed is key to navigating both opportunities and challenges in our unique market.<\/p>\n<p>\t<a class=\"roomvu-news-continue\" href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/rss\/articles\/CBMiwwFBVV95cUxNMllNeXpPZERxNHZtN1ViU25FQ3gybU9yWXV1cHd5WGo2S0lMSm05Z3d2OTFVR1l4YU5UOWp1NXhsT3UxUkRXU1Qxak5fN3lRNVRoR0RqQmVZQzltN3M5VHdQYjZvUUVCamhCeFZqOFBFemV0d0JQZ3M5YTZKUmtRaDItbzllanprMkZNTWhNcko3bm5wOHRnU1V6OUItSHd5QlVkM2poSkZEZnZ6UnExLVhIbjJzRTl0VEdjTDJtV1ZaV28?oc=5&amp;hl=en-US&amp;gl=US&amp;ceid=US:en\"><\/p>\n<div>Continue to full article<\/div>\n<p>\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With over 25 years in real estate and a keen eye for the numbers, I\u2019ve been watching how our B.C. market continues to evolve.
