My new and updated website is now up and running! Check it out at leggie.com and let me know what you think if you have a moment. The site now works on all devises with easy navigation. I hope you like it.

I am thankful we didn't have much snow in January so I could get the new site going, but February was tough, holly smokes... We have had tons of snow! Skiing has been excellent and now the sun has come out for the start of BC March Break. If you have time, get up here, it's great on the mountains. I was in a number of the retail ski shops and everything is on sale. It is time to take advantage of that if you can.

I hope to see you on the hill over March break.
 
Market Update
People love stats, so that's what my March newsletter is about.

2013 showed more sales again meaning that we have seen steady growth over the past 3 years. The biggest area of growth was seen in single family homes / chalets.

Below are a few stats that I'd like to highlight. As you can see, 75% of buyers are still coming from with a 200 kilometer radius.




With less properties available now than a year ago, and interest rates still very good, sales are happening. I was in 2 bidding wars in February and, I am happy to say, I won both. Buyers have to be ready as this is becoming a little more common when a new listing comes out that is priced well. I try to avoid them, but sometimes it can't be helped.

To see the full 2013 stats package on all property types please click this link.

Call or email me anytime to discuss these stats and/or the state of the Whistler real estate market.
