The monthly Comox Valley Market Update for March 2020 shows the market was picking up speed. In January the housing market started slow and has been gaining momentum since then. In the Comox Valley, the benchmark price reached $516,800, up by two percent from one year ago.
Single-family house sales for the month of March was up 67% in the Comox Valley, and 32% in Campbell River. Prices increased also. Considering that the COVID-19 pandemic hampered the marketing efforts in the last 2 weeks of March, the March market was very strong.
The Market Intelligence Report from the British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) states that no one knows how the unfolding COVID-19 outbreak will impact the economy long-term. B.C. is facing a sudden stop in economic activity with uncertainty on when things may return to normal. BCREA feels it is likely B.C. home sales and prices will likely face declines in the spring and early summer but should recover in the second half of the year, assuming the outbreak resolves.
Now more than ever sellers and buyers will rely on technology -such as virtual tours – which can help a large part of the real estate transaction occur without face-to-face interaction.
