About these numbers

Nanaimo · Detached homes · Source: MLSSyncEngine records held by our websites. Detached includes acreage and waterfront. Sales use completion dates, so these figures differ from VIREB’s reported-sales series.

Sold listing access. Individual sold listings and their sale prices are not displayed publicly on this website. They are available only to verified clients through private access, subject to applicable MLS® rules. The figures shown here are aggregate market statistics, not individual sold listing records.

“Typical sale price” is the median, based on — usable sale prices. A changing mix of homes can move both the mean and median. Prices need at least 5 usable records. Asking-price coverage: — of — active listings.

The asking-price line averages active homes’ asking prices at each saved snapshot; it is not a rolling average. The sale-price line averages records marked Closed with a completion date in the selected rolling window. These are different groups of homes; the gap between the lines is not a negotiated discount.

Sale-to-list price averages each completed sale’s price divided by its final recorded asking price. Sales-to-listings compares the number of completed sales with new listings. Months of inventory divides recorded active inventory by the average monthly sales pace over your selected window. Pending homes are separate from active inventory.

These are observed feed records, not a reconstruction of the board’s reported-sales methodology. Historic asking prices and inventory start when this site begins saving snapshots. Closed records follow the shared archive’s refresh schedule; a half-hour reading does not imply all sales have just been reported. Missing and low-sample price data remain blank.

How we track the marketThe reading record

The detail behind the readings.

A market check saves a snapshot of the listing records on file. The — saved checks are not sales or new listings. The first sets a baseline; later checks reveal changes.

The opening counters show listing records and populated data fields in the latest completed check. Records include active, pending and historical listings; they are not a count of homes for sale. The cumulative field-check total below counts those fields again with each saved check, even when their values stay the same.

Across the tracked Nanaimo, Lantzville, Oceanside and Ladysmith areas; all property types and statuses on file. These counts do not change with the area or home-type filters. Repeated observations count again. This is not a unique-fact count or a claim about upstream field coverage.
