SCOTT’S MARKET PERSPECTIVE

“SMITH CREEK IS A SMALL MARKET, SO EVERY SALE COUNTS.”

SMITH CREEK has 15 active residential listings against 5 closed sales in the past 90 days, too few to establish a reliable absorption rate. The median asking price is $979,900, with a median of 60 days on market. 3 new listings entered the market in the past 30 days. 4 current listings have had a price cut in the past 30 days, 27% of active inventory.

The City’s long term plan names Smith Creek as a comprehensive development area, so for buyers it is worth checking what is planned near a home before committing. For sellers, low volume means pricing rests on a careful read of the closest comparable sales, including those in neighbouring Shannon Lake and Glenrosa.
