The 2007 RE/MAX Recreational Property Report found the top-end of the market stands to gain most from the aging baby boom demographic, as many prepare for their retirement years.
Teardowns, custom-builds, and renovation continue unabated as a result, changing the shoreline of lakes and rivers in 34 of the 39 markets surveyed from Newfoundland/Labrador to British Columbia. Upper-end sales have also affected recreational property values across the board, placing upward pressure on prices, particularly in Western Canada.
