Why the Sea to Sky market is moving differently than Metro Vancouver

Why are buyers hesitant, while listings keep climbing? And why does the Sea to Sky corridor keep behaving differently than Metro Vancouver?

Episode 83 of the rennie podcast breaks down what is happening as the market closes out 2025 across Greater Vancouver, Squamish, and Whistler. Ryan Berlin and Ryan Wyse walk through the latest market signals, including near record low sales across the region and the highest level of new listings in decades. Then Carleigh Hofman joins with on the ground perspective from Whistler and Squamish, including what is actually moving, how pricing expectations are shifting, and why lifestyle, zoning, and buyer profile matter more in resort markets.

In this conversation, you will hear about
• Why 2025 is tracking as one of the slowest sales years in more than 20 years
• Why inventory is elevated, and what that means for buyers looking for choice
• Why Squamish is outperforming other sub markets, and what demand looks like heading into 2026
• Why Whistler is more buffered from rate pressure, plus what mortgage exposure can tell us
• Federal budget takeaways, and what is not changing on housing policy
• Immigration targets, labour market signals, and what it could mean for rates in 2026
• Seasonality in resort markets, and why Q4 can still be a strong time to market a home
