Is the Market Shifting in Your Favour?

If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines, waiting for the right time to buy in the Tri-Cities—this could be your moment.

Over the past few months, we’ve seen subtle but meaningful shifts in the local real estate landscape here in the Tri-Cities. Inventory has increased, competition has cooled, and sellers are becoming more open to negotiation. For buyers, this means more choices and more time to make decisions — a far cry from the fast-paced, multiple-offer climate of recent years.

Here are a few reasons why now might be a smart time to make a move:

✅ More Inventory: A growing number of homes on the market means less competition and more options to suit your needs.

✅ Motivated Sellers: With longer average days on market, many sellers are more flexible and open to negotiation.

✅ Interest Rate Stability: While rates remain higher than they were a few years ago, we’re seeing signs of stabilization—and many experts are predicting potential drops in the coming months. Buying now and refinancing later could be a strategic move.

✅ Micro-Market Opportunities: Specific neighbourhoods in Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam, and Port Moody are offering unique value— especially for first-time buyers and investors.

Whether you’re upgrading your family home, downsizing, or entering the market for the first time, current conditions present an excellent window of opportunity.
