QUALICUM’S ANNUAL MARKET REPORT 2016

Posted on: January 18th, 2017 by Chris Scott

I am pleased to provide you with my year-end review of the real estate market for the Qualicum area.

The average sale price of a home sold in Qualicum rose by 3.4% to $542,971. When we look more closely, we can see that it is the 2-storey, hi-ranch, and split level category that supported this rise, as these homes sold on average for $596,658 which is about a 9.8% increase over the last year. Bungalow prices slightly dropped to $474,967 or 1.9% decrease.

Where the biggest real estate change can be observed is in the total days on market. In Qualicum, much like the rest of Ottawa, total days on the market continues to increase. Year-to-date, the average time to sell a home in Qualicum is 61.0 days. For bungalows, it has taken 42.7 days to sell this style of homes which is only a 0.7% increase over 2015. Yet for the 2-storey, hi-ranch, and split level category, it took 75.4 days, on average. The is a large 42.8% increase from 2015.

And how do sale prices stack up against listing prices? In Qualicum, this figure is a 0.9% slight decrease over last year.

The average monthly listing dropped from 11.5 in to 2015 to 7.9 in 2016. The highest vs lowest listing months also dropped. One thing to note is the highest listing month in 2015 was June but in 2016 it was March. Both for 2015 and 2016 December was the lowest active listing month.

  Over the years, with multiple military moves, we’ve had the opportunity to work with many real estate agents, and we can confidently say that not all are created equal. Chris, by far, has been the most trustworthy and easiest real estate agent we’ve had the pleasure to work with.

  Colin has been the best realtor to work with and helped us buy a great house in the perfect neighborhood. Colin and the rest of the team at Chris Scott were incredibly helpful the whole way and always available to answer questions, show us houses at a time that was convenient for us and were just generally professional and friendly during the whole process. We will recommend Colin and the team to our friends and family.

  I was a co-Executrix of an estate, and we had a condo that we had to sell for the estate.  In order to get the property ready for sale, we had to have the over 5,000 square foot condo painted and the carpets replaced.  Since the property was empty, Chris recommended a home stager that he uses on properties that require these services, and she did a fantastic job of staging the condo. It took the condo to the next level. The condo sold for a phenomenal price, and we were very happy with Chris Scott and his abilities.  He always gives over 100 percent to get the job done!  I recommend him to anyone that requires the services of a great real estate agent.

  We worked with Rachel and she was beyond diligent. She is so organised and meticulous with details, it really helps when buying a home. She even agreed to do a virtual walk through for the home we ended up buying because we weren’t going to get there ourselves prior to offers being reviewed. She was also great with recommending areas to consider and avoid. Highly recommend.

  Rachel was amazing. She helped me find the perfect home for me and my son during a challenging time in my life. She was extremely patient and empathetic, professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her. No one will work harder for you than Rachel.

  My husband and I purchased a house in the surrounding Ottawa area with the assistance of Colin from this group of individuals. We unfortunately were left with no choice but to purchase a home sight unseen due to our work circumstances. We originally considered not purchasing because of this.
We deliberated and chose to purchase a home after participating in FaceTime showings and we could not have been more satisfied. Colin was objective, professional, calm, informative, and realistic. He listened to our needs and helped us choose our home. The fact that we were pleasantly surprised, and a year later remain pleased as punch, says everything about how talented this company is. Will, without a doubt, use this company when we leave Ottawa.

  We worked with Chris to find a home back in 2011 that would suit our desire to be close to work. He was nothing but professional and courteous! Listening to our needs and showing us what we were looking for. Years later, when we thought about down sizing and finding a renovated home, he took us around to see some in the neighborhood. He always open to helping us out in our searches
