Neighbourhood Recap 2010: South #Vernon BC, North #Okanagan real estate stats #reby#

I’m putting this post together while I do a market evaluation in prep to meet with a prospective seller this afternoon. The home is located in South Vernon – so I am focusing on the real estate activity that occurred there in 2010 as well as a look back over the trends from 2005 for this neighbourhood, and will share the results with you.

South Vernon is a small neighbourhood tucked in the area between Okanagan Avenue and Vernon Creek, south from 43A Street to Graham Park. As such it forms a relatively small part of the overall North Okanagan real estate picture. For  more information about South Vernon, visit our South Vernon webpage. When I ran my 2010 neighbourhood  stats these were the numbers:

In 2010, the total value of real estate traded in South Vernon was $5,755,500. This equates to approximately 1% of the total value of real estate sold in the North Okanagan in 2010 and represented 24 sales in total. A late transaction was posted, and as of today, the numbers look like this for 2010:

In the Single Family residential home category – sales were divided up into the following sub categories:

It is important to keep these numbers in mind when you look at the pricing information for South Vernon. The proportion of half duplex and fourplex units in the mix equates to more than 50% of the sales – thus impacting the average price substantially. This also paints a picture as to the neighbourhood make up of the South Vernon sub area of North Okanagan real estate. It is an area where there is a large concentration of these wholly owned (not stratified) properties.
