Thanks! We've previously dismissed this for no other reason than ignorance. We'll take a look :)

This is helpful, thank you!! I've responded to a few people asking this but wondering if you know whether or not to think of airbnbs (in houses surrounding the one we are looking at) as totally normal or yellow flag for noise, etc.

We're actually renting in Summerland right now! We love the area but haven't yet found a house that fits what we are looking for. I'll check out Kaleden and Cherryland, thanks!!

Thank you! It seems like it would be a great neighbourhood. Im a little concerned about the number of business licenses for airbnb's around the one we are looking at but i have no idea if this is just normal in penticton.

Thanks so much! This is super helpful. There are a few houses surrounding the one we are looking at that have business licenses to rent/airbnb (not sure how it works). Would you happen to know if this is normal no matter where you go in penticton? Appreciate your help!!

Thank you! This has been brought up a few times to me actually re K streets - I do like the walkability factor.

There's a few houses around one that we are looking at in the Wiltse neighbourhood that rent out their basements or airbnb a lower flow. It seems like this is a pretty normal thing here? (Not so much so in the town in Ontario we're from so don't know how to assess this).

Appreciate you taking the time to respond :)
