WHY INVEST IN PENTICTON?
Penticton is experiencing rapid growth in both residential and commercial sectors, putting an increased demand on modern commercial space to cater to the growing Okanagan market.
Penticton’s vibrancy has been on the rise, and putting it on the map for investors in recent years, driven by new housing, a burgeoning culinary, winery and craft brewery scene, a robust job market, strong entrepreneurial resources, and outstanding natural amenities.
