In the latest episode of the ReMax Realty Show on KelownaNow, hosts Jim and Jerry are joined by special guest and ReMax Agent Brayden Koop to discuss an exciting new property listing and the intricacies of Kelowna’s real estate market.

Brayden brings his expertise to the table, showcasing a stunning property in the prestigious neighbourhood of Wilden. "This property just hit the market, and I’m super excited to tell you guys about it," Brayden shares. "Wilden is one of Kelowna’s favourite neighbourhoods for good reason—lots of awesome views, super quiet, and private."

The featured property is a luxurious home on Skyline Drive, boasting 0.84 acres of prime land and 4,000 square feet of living space. "It’s a big property, lots of privacy, and one of the larger lots up here," Brayden says. The home includes three bedrooms, five baths, and a triple-car garage with epoxy flooring. The exterior features a saltwater pool and hot tub, adding to the allure of the property.

Inside, the house impresses with high-end finishes. "You’ll see a floor-to-ceiling rock feature wall, elegant light fixtures, and a kitchen so big it has two full-sized islands," Brayden explains. The kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances from Fisher Paykel, Bosch, and Miele, including a built-in espresso machine and convection oven.

One standout feature is the heated tile flooring, which extends from the en suite bathroom through the primary suite and the entire basement. "It’s heated with a gas-fired boiler, which is more efficient than electric heating," Brayden notes. The property is listed at $2,690,000, making it a prime example of luxury living in Kelowna.

As the conversation transitions from the listing to market trends, Jerry explains the differences between average, median, and benchmark house prices. "The benchmark price is probably the most reliable and accurate. It reflects a typical home that people are buying in Kelowna," Jerry says.

Brayden emphasizes the importance of understanding these statistics when navigating the market. "Working with a professional agent who understands these stats and the market trends is crucial for making informed decisions," he advises.

"High-end homes are selling slower, but unique properties can still move quickly," Brayden says. He gives an example of a recent sale: "We had a big waterfront home that sold in under seven days, despite being in the $7 million range."

Jim and Jerry highlight the importance of being prepared and working with knowledgeable agents. "If you’re interested in buying, now is the time to start looking and getting pre-approved," Jim suggests. "You want to be ready to act when the right property comes along."
