07:21 AM EST, 11/21/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Royal LePage forecasts a 4.0% increase in single-family home prices over the next year in popular ski regions across Canada.

Nationally, single-family home prices in Canada's winter recreational market increased 3.8% year over year in the first nine months of this year to $982,000, Royal LePage found in a report published on Thursday.

16 of the 18 recreational markets in the report recorded an increase in sales this year.

Almost half, or 47%, of recreational property experts report more inquiries from domestic buyers of recreational real estate as a result of the 'Buy Canadian' movement, stated Royal LePage.

In the wake of ongoing trade tensions with the United States and resulting weakness in the economy, homebuyers have approached the residential market with increased caution as of late. According to the latest Royal LePage House Price Survey and Market Forecast, the aggregate price of a home in Canada recorded virtually no change in Q3, increasing just 0.1% year over year to $816,500.2 On a quarter-over-quarter basis, the national aggregate home price posted a decline of 1.2%.

By comparison, Canada's recreational property market has remained notably more resilient, as many consumers in this segment appear willing to look past broader economic challenges.
