Vernon Real Estate Market Update: July 2026

July 31, 2026 · James Roffel, REALTOR®

The Vernon and North Okanagan market is starting to normalize. Sales went up, inventory is tightening, and months of inventory is pulling back toward balanced territory. But prices are telling a different story depending on what type of property you're looking at.

The Overall Market (June 2026)

186 homes sold in the North Okanagan in June — up 5.1% compared to last June. Inventory dropped 11.4% year-over-year, bringing months of inventory down to 5.4 — balanced market territory.

Single Family Homes

95 single-family homes sold in June, up 8% year-over-year. Inventory fell 20% compared to 2025, with 423 active listings and 4.45 months of inventory — pushing toward a seller's market if this trend continues.

Average days to sell: around 60 days. Benchmark price: $785,000. Buyers and sellers are negotiating about 2.4% off the last list price.

Townhomes

22 townhome sales in June, down 8.3% from last year, but inventory also dropped 15%. Benchmark price: $592,000 — up 5.1% year-over-year, and prices have been steadily rising since January. Months of inventory: 5.68.

Condos

17 condo sales in June — down 10.5% — while inventory actually increased compared to 2025. Benchmark condo price: $318,000, making Vernon one of the most affordable entry points in the entire Okanagan.

What This Means for You

If you're a buyer, you still have strong choice and solid negotiating room — but single-family inventory is thinning quickly. If you're a seller, pricing to today's market is essential. Look at what sold in the last 30-60 days, not what your neighbor sold for in 2022.
