Big White Ski Resort香蕉视频直播檚 real estate market is booming, and in the 2016/2017 season more listings were sold and more development took place than in the previous ten years combined, says a mountain real estate agent.
Big White香蕉视频直播檚 last real estate boom took place between 2003-2006, when large accommodation projects such as Stonebridge, Aspens, Copper Kettle, and various units in Happy Valley were built to meet the demands of international buyers who desired a vacation home on the ski-in/ski-out slopes of Big White Ski Resort.
There were 128 unit sales in 2006/2007 with a total value of $41, 612, 356 and in the years that followed the numbers dropped dramatically. In the 2008/2009 sale period, only 53 units were sold with a total value of $12,275,575, according ot the Okanagan Mainland Real Estate Board.
Now sales are better than ever with 186 units being sold at a value of $48,724,070.

When the recession hit in February 2009, the demand for recreational property dropped, new development was put on hold, and there was more inventory than there were buyers. In recent years, however, there has been an exciting renewal of property buyers.

The demand at Big White for family-friendly, winter vacation homes is back and the opportunity to capitalize on new developments is evident from the many projects that regained momentum this summer, such as Stonegate Phase 3.
Other building developments that have commenced construction at Big White this summer include single-family mountain homes, individual family homes, townhouses, duplexes and a new neighbourhood of affordable ski-in/ski-out cabins.
