It's the same story, and it's playing out right here in the Okanagan. In this video, I break down the two ways the Canada-US trade war is quietly showing up in our market, and the smart, informed moves that put you ahead of it. Watch now to see how it lands on your specific plans this year. false Tariffs and counter-tariffs are showing up in two places most people never connect: your renovation quote and the new builds that still haven't broken ground.

If you own property in the Okanagan, this matters far more than the headlines let on. A council vote makes the news for a day, then disappears. What it means for your equity, your timing, and your next move is the part nobody explains. In my latest video, I break down what actually happened with the 580 Commonage decision, and the one thing about constrained supply that most owners get backwards. Watch my video for the full picture. false Vernon just constrained its housing supply for years to come. Here's what that shift means for owners across the Okanagan.

It's an understandable worry after two years of a buyer's market, when homes sat longer and buyers held all the leverage. But the May numbers tell the opposite story, and there's one number I watch above all others that shows the central Okanagan market has already turned. Watch my video to see where your home and price point sit in this shift. false The May numbers say yes. After two years of a buyer's market, every Okanagan housing segment just crossed into balanced territory, and one number proves it. AJ Hazzi, Founder at Vantage West Realty, Inc.

But there's a factor that may matter more over the long haul than any of them, and it's hiding behind a view so beautiful it fools nearly everyone who sees it. In this video, I break down the quiet force that could reshape what Okanagan property is worth, and the one question every long-term buyer should be asking before anyone else does.
