Selling your Predator Ridge home

The market you're selling into

On 23 September 2026, Zolo counted 73 active listings at Predator Ridge: 23 houses, 22 condos and 15 townhomes, with an average asking price of about $987,000 and houses ranging from $1.79 million to $3.6 million (Zolo). Across the North Okanagan, August 2026 sales were down 26.6% from a year earlier while active listings were down 8.5% (AIR data via Coldwell Banker Horizon).

Sean's read: buyers have choice and they know it. You're competing with other resales, with the developer's new homes at Ellison Landing and Vista, and with the resort's own partner brokerage, which set up in the sales centre in August 2026. Homes that are priced right from day one and presented beautifully still sell. Homes that "test the market" tend to sit.

What buyers at Predator Ridge ask about first

• The monthly number. Have the current community fee, strata fee, landscape fee, property tax and utilities ready in writing.
• Golf membership. Does a Homeowner Golf Membership attach to the property, under which Acknowledgement Agreement, and what transfers? With initiation at $55,000 for new members, a transferable membership can be a real selling point (resort page). Confirm the terms before you advertise it.
• Rental rights. Is the unit in a resort-managed program that qualifies under the 2024 short-term rental exemption? Provide owner statements if so, and don't imply income a buyer can't legally earn.
• Strata health. Recent minutes, depreciation report and contingency reserve.
• Wildfire preparedness. FireSmart work, roof type and insurance history.

When to sell

Predator Ridge buyers are often relocating or buying a second home, and many want to see the golf courses green and the trails open. Spring (from the golf opening in April) through early fall is when most buyers visit in person. Winter listings face fewer competitors, and serious buyers still shop online, so a well-photographed winter listing can work. Sean will look at current inventory in your specific neighbourhood before recommending a date.

Pre-listing checklist

• Gather strata documents: Form B, two years of minutes, bylaws, budget, depreciation report
• Get written confirmation of current PRCLA, strata and landscape fees
• Find your golf membership agreement and confirm transfer terms
• Pull the latest property tax notice and 12 months of utility bills
• Service the furnace, air conditioning and irrigation; clean gutters
• Touch up exterior paint, stain decks and refresh landscaping (curb appeal matters on a hillside)
• Declutter and depersonalize; show off the view with clean windows and open blinds
• Book professional photography in good light, plus drone and twilight shots where views are the story
• List recent upgrades with dates and costs
• Consider a pre-listing inspection for older homes (roof, drainage, retaining walls)

Pricing against new construction

Resale homes at Predator Ridge now compete directly with new product: Vista condos from $600,700, Ellison Landing homes from $1.4 million, and a Vale home listed at $1,995,000 in September 2026. A buyer comparing your 2005 Dormie Hills home with a new build will weigh GST (5% on new, none on resale), mature landscaping, lot size and golf frontage against new finishes and a warranty. A good pricing strategy spells out those trade-offs in your marketing instead of hoping buyers work them out.

Fractional, rental-program and lodge units sell differently

A 1/12 interest at The Tips or a Lodge suite in the rental program has a smaller buyer pool and often needs a different lender. Buyers will want the rental-management agreement, recent owner statements, the usage calendar and the strata's financials. Expect a longer marketing period and price with that in mind. Online averages that lump fractional shares in with whole homes aren't a useful guide to value.

Why independent representation matters here

The resort's partner brokerage in the sales centre also sells the developer's new homes. That's not a problem in itself, but it's worth asking any agent how they'll position your resale home against new inventory they may also be selling. Sean has no relationship with the developer, so his only job is getting your home sold for the best price and terms.
