FEBRUARY 2026 NORTH AMERICAN LUXURY MARKET OVERVIEW
FEATURED LUXURY PROPERTY – WHISTLER
North American Market Overview
February Luxury Market Highlights
Our latest North American Luxury Market Report is your guide to high-end real estate trends across Canada and the U.S. — featuring month-over-month stats, a 13-month trend review, and insights into what’s ahead.
As we look toward 2026, the luxury market is defined by balance and intentionality — not speculation. January’s numbers confirm stability, not slowdown, with performance closely matching last year’s unusually strong start.
While sales volumes show modest dips (largely due to limited inventory), pricing tells a story of recalibration, not correction — single-family values remain steady and attached properties show gains.
High-net-worth buyers are prioritizing lifestyle fit, capital preservation, and generational planning. With more Gen X and Millennial wealth entering the market, demand is shifting toward flexible, functional homes in both established luxury hubs and emerging lifestyle destinations.
Inventory is expected to rise modestly in 2026, but not enough to dramatically shift buyer leverage. Today’s market calls for strategy, data, and expert guidance.
If you’re considering buying or selling, working with a knowledgeable REALTOR® who understands your local market and leverages technology for maximum exposure is key.
When others lower expectations, we shift gears — and position you to win.
Thank you and have a great day,
Ursula
