Why This Time of Year Matters — Comox Valley Homes Team

The holidays in the Comox Valley bring cozy gatherings, festive events, and time spent with the people who matter most. It also happens to be one of the most common times for real estate conversations to happen—often without anyone planning it.

Here’s why the season naturally sparks important housing discussions:

People Finally Have Time to Think

Between work, commuting, and life’s busyness, it’s tough to step back and assess your living situation. The holidays offer a pause—giving families time to reflect on whether their current home still fits their needs.

Visitors Fall in Love With the Valley

Out-of-town guests often experience the Comox Valley at its best: strolling downtown Courtenay, skiing at Mount Washington, or walking along the Comox Marina. Many leave asking, “What are homes going for here?”

Meaningful Family Discussions

Whether it’s downsizing, upsizing, helping kids into their first home, or planning a future move, family gatherings tend to spark honest conversations about housing goals for the year ahead.

A Fresh Start in the New Year

January is one of the busiest months for buyers and sellers. The ideas discussed in December often turn into decisions once the new year begins.
