Thanks for stopping by!


With permission from J.P. Squire, (aka The Sheriff) we are happy to include some SOS  (Secret Okanagan Spots)

Hundreds are using the Okanagan Rail Trail every day, thousands every week and hundreds of thousands in the nearly five years since this $30-million recreational investment officially opened on Sept. 27, 2018.

However, only a few venture into more challenging territory – this week's Secret Okanagan Spot in the SOS series. And that trail leads to another now-almost-forgotten SOS.


Kal Crystal Waters Trail, the old, old original highway between Lake Country and Coldstream, offers a quiet respite from the busy, busy Okanagan Rail Trail. Several benches along this upper hillside trail have panoramic views of Kalamalka Lake looking toward Lake Country.


J.P. shares his thoughts on the Castanet site and you can find more details here.

Scroll down to check out what's happening in real estate and our local communities as well as our regular features.

Talk soon,

What's Happening Now to August 11 , 2023


WHAT ELSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT


Where are home prices headed?

Interest rates are up again, and the market feels uncertain.

At the beginning of the year, many were forecasting a recession—which hasn't materialized. Home prices have performed better than expected, and inventory is still low. 

When is that major market correction going to happen, and where are prices headed for 2023 and 2024?

Economy and market experts give their answers in our latest post.
