Nanaimo Real Estate Market Report: March 2022

Apr 8, 2022 | 3:19 PM

NANAIMO – Inventory slowly growing but still far from optimal.

In March, 528 single-family homes sold. A 6 per cent decrease from one year ago, but up by 49 per cent from February.

While March brought 9 per cent more single-family home listings, numbers are still far lower than where they need to be to satisfy demand.

Nanaimo single-family homes continue to reach historic highs with an average sale price of $970,961 in March, a 4 per cent increase from the previous month and 26 per cent higher than the previous year.

In a competitive market, it is key to obtain the advice of a REALTOR®, especially in a multiple-offer environment.
