“There’s no more waiting – the spring market is here,” said Victoria Real Estate Board Chair Fergus Kyne. “With the most inventory for sale that our market has had in eleven years, we’re seeing buyers take advantage of the many homes to choose from. Buyer expectations around pricing and features have changed with market conditions and they have more time to make decisions and are viewing more properties. To meet buyer demands, motivated sellers need to enter the market with competitive pricing and an understanding of their property’s value in the current environment.”

FINANCING UPDATE:

The Bank of Canada held its key interest rate at 2.25%, continuing its pause as it works through a more complex global backdrop.

Rising oil prices and ongoing geopolitical tensions are putting upward pressure on inflation, while parts of the Canadian economy remain soft.

The Bank indicated that if current trends hold, any future rate changes are expected to be gradual, with decisions guided by how inflation evolves.

The next rate announcement will occur on June 10, 2026.
