## City market context

From the Kamloops market article, 11 October 2026:

Median single-family home prices in Kamloops rose 0.7% year-over-year to $715,000 in Q2 2026. Townhouse and apartment median prices declined 6.6% and 4% respectively during the same period. Kamloops exhibited significant price divergence across property types in Q2 2026, with single-family homes holding value while townhouses and apartments experienced double-digit or near-double-digit declines, indicating segment-specific buyer leverage rather than a uniform market correction.
