While the aggregate price of single-family waterfront properties dropped five per cent to $641,900 since last year, a Royal LePage surveyof 202 brokers in Marchfound 59 per cent of Alberta respondents reported less inventory this year. About 71 noted even less inventory than there was pre-pandemic.

“One of my clients was telling me it’s appreciated faster than secondary homes in the south of France…That’s wild.”Article content Mary Jane Webster, a real estate agent in Charlottetown has similarly noticed the pandemic driving people to buy year-round and second homes near Prince Edward Island’s sandy beaches.
