Penticton Farm and Acreage FAQ
What types of rural properties are common in Penticton?
Vineyards and orchards are common along the benches, with hobby farms and rural homes on larger lots at the edges of town. Parcel sizes and permitted uses vary by zoning and ALR status.
What should buyers review before purchasing?
Confirm water source and any irrigation licence, septic system details, access, zoning and ALR status, title charges and easements, and permits for any outbuildings. Independent inspections and professional advice are recommended.
Are secondary dwellings or short-term rentals allowed?
It depends on zoning, ALR policy, and servicing. Rules can change. Confirm current requirements with the City of Penticton and, where applicable, the Agricultural Land Commission before planning.
