Greetings from Whistler and Pemberton,
What a week it was with the World Ski & Snowboard Festival, always such a fun reminder of how vibrant Whistler is this time of year. We’re now shifting into that classic spring transition, with the countdown officially on to golf courses reopening and the Whistler Bike Park season kicking off. In Pemberton, some bike trails are already in great shape, giving an early taste of what’s to come as the days get longer and the valley starts to dry out.
That seasonal shift is starting to carry into the real estate market as well. We’re seeing a steady flow of new listings and a gradual return of buyer activity after a quieter start to the year. While things still feel measured, there’s a growing sense of confidence as people begin to re-engage and explore opportunities ahead of the busy summer season.
With interest rates appearing more stable and pricing having adjusted from previous peaks, the market is continuing to find its balance across both Whistler and Pemberton. Sellers are expecting to benefit from increased attention, while buyers are starting to see more choice and less urgency than in past cycles.
Whether you’re thinking about making a move this season or simply keeping an eye on how things are evolving, it’s a great time to stay informed. I’m always here to help you navigate what’s next.

Let’s talk about the Whistler and Pemberton real estate markets in 2025
While the first quarter of 2026 showed some improvement over the fourth quarter of 2025, it was weaker than the sales activity seen in Q1 2025. Listing levels compared to the same time last year were mixed, with slight increases in townhomes and condos, while chalet and shared ownership inventory saw marginal declines. A closer comparison between Q1 2025 and 2026 suggests that uncertainty surrounding global economic and political conditions may be impacting buyer confidence. With the exception of the townhome segment, all other market segments experienced a decline in sales volume.
With a milder winter and potentially reduced winter travel due to broader political uncertainty, the Pemberton real estate market is seeing an early start to the spring buying and selling season. Listing levels increased for single-family homes and condos, while townhomes continue to be an elusive commodity and vacant land inventory remains virtually unchanged. Ongoing supply constraints—particularly in the single-family and townhome segments—persist, with no significant new construction on the immediate horizon. Condo inventory has increased modestly, with eight active listings compared to four in Q1 2025, while vacant land supply remains steady.
