If you know, you know… Casa Loma is one of the Central Okanagan’s best-kept secrets.

Join me for a complete walk-through of 2612 Casa Loma Road where you’ll get a true feel for the room sizes, layout, natural light, and how this home lives day-to-day. We’ll also step outside and explore the private backyard and covered deck that make this property so special.

But the real magic of Casa Loma is the lifestyle. In this video I’ll also take you on a quick tour of Casa Loma Beach Park, Dupuis Park, the community boat launch, and the community dock and beach — all just steps from your front door.

Imagine morning walks along the lake, afternoons at the beach, launching the boat on a whim, and enjoying the peace and quiet of one of West Kelowna’s most sought-after waterfront neighbourhoods.

Properties in Casa Loma rarely come available, and when they do, they don’t tend to last long.

Have a look through the video and if you’d like to experience it in person, call your Realtor and book a showing today!

Is this finally the right time to buy in the Okanagan?

That is probably the #1 question I am hearing right now.

And honestly? For the right buyer, this may be one of the better windows we have seen in quite some time.

Prices have softened.
Inventory levels are healthy.
Buyers have more choice.
Many sellers are negotiable.
And the panic-buying energy we saw a few years ago is long gone.

That matters.

For the last few years, a lot of buyers have been sitting on the sidelines waiting for “the right time.” But here’s the thing about real estate: the right time usually does not announce itself with fireworks and a marching band. It often shows up quietly, when most people are still hesitant.

Right now, buyers have something they have not had much of in recent years: leverage.

You can take your time. You can compare properties. You can negotiate. You can ask for conditions. You can look for value instead of just racing to beat the next offer.

But there is another side to this.

Interest rates appear to have found a floor, and with bond yields moving higher, there is a real possibility that fixed mortgage rates could edge up later this year. If that happens, waiting for the “perfect” moment may not actually improve your position.

A lower purchase price with a reasonable rate and some negotiating power can be a much better combination than waiting for the crowd to come back.

I am not saying every buyer should run out and buy anything with a front door and a furnace. That is not the market we are in.

But if you are financially prepared, have a long-term plan, and know what you are looking for, this is absolutely a market worth paying attention to.

The opportunity right now is not just in buying a home.

The opportunity is in buying carefully, strategically, and before everyone else realizes the window was open.

If you have been wondering whether this is the time to start looking seriously, let’s talk. There may be more opportunity out there than you think.

There’s just something special about the **Peachland Car Show**.

Every year, it brings people together for a walk down memory lane — polished chrome, deep paint, rumbling engines, and the kind of classics that instantly spark stories. Whether it reminds you of your first car, your parents’ car, a summer road trip, or simply a time when vehicles had a whole lot more personality, it’s hard not to smile walking through the show.

And behind every one of these beautiful classics is a huge amount of dedication. The long hours, the patience, the hunting for parts, the polishing, tuning, restoring, and maintaining — it really is a labour of love. These owners aren’t just showing cars; they’re preserving history.

A big thank you to everyone who brings their vehicles out, volunteers their time, organizes the event, and helps make this happen year after year. The Peachland Car Show is such an important part of the Peachland calendar, and it’s one of those community events that reminds us how lucky we are to live here.

Here’s to the classics, the stories, the memories, and the people who keep them alive.

Accelerating short-term rental opt-out process
Change gives communities with healthy vacancy rates more flexibility for peak travel season.

Updated April 17, 2026

Summary

As of 2027, municipalities with consistently high vacancy rates will have an earlier effective date to opt out of provincial rules that limit short-term rentals to principal residences
This change shifts the decision timeline from a March 31 submission and Nov. 1 effective date to a Feb. 28 submission and June 1 effective date for communities who are requesting to opt out, which accommodates the busy summer season
By request, a special one-time regulation will enable the City of Kelowna to follow the same timeline in 2026 and opt out of the provincial principal residence requirement effective June 1, recognizing major summer events planned in the community in 2026
