Chase River Real Estate Market
South end prices with the woods at the back door.Chase River real estate market values sit in the lower half of the Nanaimo range while offering something most of the cheaper parts of the city do not, which is direct access to trails and green space.
Chase River Real Estate Market Overview
Chase River sits at the south end where the city runs up against the hills. Established housing on generally decent lots, with the trail network and the Nanaimo Lakes road heading out behind it.
It has a settled, slightly separate feel from the rest of south Nanaimo, and the housing tends to be a little newer and a little more consistent than the streets closer to the harbour.
Value housing with a genuine amenity attached. Being on the edge of the city rather than in the middle of it is the whole proposition, and for buyers who use the outdoors it is a good one.

Questions About These Numbers
Yes. Any graph will deliver it at whatever frequency you set.
Geographically yes, though it has its own character and generally trades a little above the streets nearer the harbour.
Good, and it is one of the main reasons people choose the area. The network behind the neighbourhood is extensive.

An area average is a starting point at best. Recent nearby sales, your lot and the condition of the house are what decide the figure. I don't guess your home's value. I prove it using actual market value and real market movement so you can protect your equity and move forward with confidence.
