South Okanagan Monthly and Annual Real Estate Statistics December 2011 and Year to Date Market Review by Raymond MAASKE – Home Star Realty

South Okanagan Monthly and Annual Real Estate Statistics December 2011 and Year to Date Market Review by Raymond MAASKE – Home Star Realty

 

 

 

Osoyoos was the big winner in December with reports sales (dollar value) up 933%!  December 2010 there was only 1 sale, December 2011 10 sales.  However, for the year Osoyoos is about even on units sold but values continued to fall.

Overall, the big winner in 2011 has been Summerland giving a strong finish to 2011 with a 200% increase in the number of units sold over December 2010.  This translated into a 295% increase in dollar value of properties sold.  Summerland’s average sales price per unit dropped for the year 2%, which was greatly helped by the 32% increase for December 2011 over 2010. 

Penticton’s prices have risen 4% for the year while sales have dropped by about the same.

If some or all of this does NOT make sense feel free to contact me and I can explain what it means in other terms.  If you want to watch the video report or a copy of the full report go to:  http://www.homestarrealty.ca/MARKET_UPDATE/page_2288466.html

Have a great day and here is to a great year!

PENTICTON BUFFET - Penticton's Best Chinese Buffet Smorgasbord (Near Walmart) 2987 Skaha Lake

250-492-8338 at 2987 Skaha Lake Road Penticton, BC

This has become one of our favorite buffet restaurants in Penticton. This is a relatively new restaurant in the location of the former Pantry restaurant Skaha Lake Rd.The variety of dishes are amazing and always fresh and hot. The buffet is primarily good quality Chinese dishes but they always have traditional Canadian fare such as a whole turkey, prime rib, fried chicken, onion rings, and even perogies . Buffet has 2 soups, usually a hot and sour, and a wonton soup, several salad items, and some really good deserts such as cheese cake, nanaimo square, cakes, and a variety of tarts .They've even had sushi at times and the buffet includes a pop or ice tea. Senior rate is $13.98 and adult is $14.98. Service has always been good and you won't leave hungry. The restaurant is very clean as are the washrooms.Lots of light and plenty of booths for privacy. We've been here a half a dozen times now and haven't found anything worth complaining about.
