Kamloops, also known as the "Tournament Capital of Canada", is located in the Thompson Nicola Valley which is located in the central interior of British Columbia. The city has an estimated population of 96,000 as of 2007 with a total of approxiamately 170,000 in the out-lying areas. With a dry desert-like climate, it is no wonder Kamloops has little precipitation and more than 2100 hours of sun per annum.

Major industry includes a mix of forestry, mining, distribution, agriculture, tourism, commerce, post-secondary (Thompson River's University) and various government bodies. Sun Peaks, one of the largest 4 season alpine restorts in Canada is located within 45 minutes of downtown for all your snowboarding, skiing, hiking, or biking needs. For some fun in the sun, the Shuswap Lake is located east of town with over 1,600 km of shoreline.

With a recent airport expansion announced, five major highways, major railway junctions, and a possible inland port, Kamloops continues to grow as a major, arterial city - perfect for a growing company.

Comparatively speaking, Kamloops' Real Estate is known for its affordability compared to elsewhere in the province. Call Brendan today for more information.
