| 🏔️ Whistler Market Snapshot – Q1 2025 The Whistler market kicked off 2025 with a slower pace than last year—but there’s more to the story.

And with more inventory to choose from, this is an opportune time for buyers to explore. Whistler Highlights: ✅ 106 sales in Q1, down from 130 in Q1 2024 ✅ Inventory is growing – 326 active listings, up 21% from the end of 2024 ✅ More options for buyers = more negotiating power ✅ Median sale prices are up quarter-over-quarter across all categories (single-family, townhomes, condos) ✅ Buyers’ market vibes – especially for those ready to move when the right opportunity presents itself ✅ Condos & townhomes selling in 31–37 days on average, while single-family homes are sitting a bit longer at 122 days |
