Victoria Real Estate Market Update-January 2026

January 2026

Victoria Real Estate Board Market Report – December 2025
The Greater Victoria and Westshore markets were quite resilient in 2025. While the news headlines were geared towards the distractions from South of the border, our region registered a slight increase in overall sales for the year compared to 2024, and prices in most areas remained stable. Listing inventory was up, so Buyers had a lot of choice, and the market remained balanced with slight favour to Buyers. 2026 will most likely remain the same, unless there are large global interruptions affecting our market.

Below are some statistics for December 2025 and Year end throughout the Greater Victoria region

Listing Inventory:

There were 2,544 active listings for sale on the Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service® at the end of December 2025, a decrease of 19.3 % compared to the previous month of November but an 11.1 % increase from the 2,290 active listings for sale at the end of December 2024. Overall inventory is up from a year ago, but marginally. Buyers will continue to have good options as the year progresses.

Sales:

A total of 367 properties sold in the Victoria Real Estate Board region this December, 12.8 % fewer than the 421 properties sold in December 2024 and 18.6 % fewer than in November 2025. Sales of condominiums were down 21.5 % from December 2024 with 106 units sold. Sales of single family homes decreased by 2.6 % from December 2024 with 186 sold. There were 6,918 sales over the course of 2025, a 0.36 % increase from the 6,893 sales in 2024. While the overall sales numbers have remained consistent over the last 2 years, the last few months have shown lower sales numbers, so 2026 could have fewer sales than 2025 if this trend continues. The Bank of Canada’s pause on interest rate changes is predicted to remain for the next 6 months, so not much should change in the market between now and then.

Average Victoria Real Estate Prices:

The Multiple Listing Service® Home Price Index benchmark value for a single family home in the Victoria Core in December 2024 was $1,316,700. The benchmark value for the same home in December 2025 decreased by 4.7 % to $1,255,000, down 1.7 per cent from November’s value of $1,276,700. The MLS® HPI benchmark value for a condominium in the Victoria Core area in December 2024 was $546,100 while the benchmark value for the same condominium in December 2025 increased by 0.7 % to $549,900, a decrease of 0.6 % from the November value of $533,100. Prices have softened over the last few months for single family homes, and condos are remaining about same. However, with the recent lower monthly sales numbers and rising inventory levels that occur in the first half of the year, the stable prices might soften somewhat. This will depend on the Bank of Canada’s interest rate policy and the long term economic effects from the policies South of the border. All in all it should be a decent year for the Greater Victoria markets.
