Market Dynamics and Trends in South Pandosy

The growth of South Pandosy’s presale market can be attributed primarily to location. Okanagan Lake and the flourishing commercial district have made it a hotspot for buyers seeking urban amenities and access to the outdoors. Proximity to the hospital has only added to its appeal, attracting medical professionals and retirees alike. 

South Pandosy, like the broader Kelowna market, has experienced fluctuations in presale inventory. Between 2015 and 2020, the market was more restrained with fewer high-rise developments. However, starting in 2020, the neighbourhood saw a boom in new projects, including Caban by Cressey, which completes this fall. 

One of the most attractive aspects of purchasing presale in South Pandosy is the potential for price appreciation. Buyers who secured presale units in developments between 2015 and 2018 have seen notable returns, with some properties appreciating by more than 30% by the time construction was completed.
