A look at the ten most valuable homes in Revelstoke

BC Assessment released their property values this month and the list revealed the ten most valuable homes in the Revelstoke area.

Out of a list for the 100 top valued residential homes for the Kootenay Columbia, which extends from Cranbrook to Nelson to Revelstoke, 12 homes around Revelstoke are included.

Seven of the 12 homes are on 2080 Mackenzie Crt, which is next to the Revelstoke Mountain Resort. However, while the other five homes on the list increased in value from the year prior, these seven properties lost value.

In 2017, there were only two properties on the list for the 100 top valued residential homes for the Kootenay Columbia, one of which was 29-2080 Mackenzie Crt. That property is now the third priciest in Revelstoke.

Ramaish Shah, deputy assessor for the Kootenay Columbia Region at BC Assessment, said Revelstoke is seeing an influx of large, modern homes being built over recent years, which is contributing to them being on the top valued lists.

Overall, Revelstoke saw a 10 per cent increase in assessed property values since last year, while provincially the numbers dipped by 2.5 per cent.
