Cities included in Greater Vancouver are: Coquitlam, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, New Westminster, Burnaby, Pitt Meadows, and Maple Ridge.
Last month we experienced another Seller’s Market with 36 percent of properties selling. Even though the month of July was still favorable for Seller’s, there was a noticeable change in Buyer activity, and signs of the market slowing down.
Total sales for July 2023 were 955, which is a 35 percent increase from last year. This is a 17 percent decrease from the previous month. The median sales price for a home in Greater Vancouver was $1,150,000, which is a five percent increase from last year. This is a two percent decrease from the previous month.
The total active listings last month were 2,634, which is a four percent decrease from last year. This is a six percent increase from the previous month.
Detached Homes:
For detached homes throughout Greater Vancouver, it took on average 11 days to sell. This is up three days from the previous month.
Attached Homes:
For attached properties, which includes condos, townhomes, and duplexes, it took nine days to sell. This is up one day from the previous month.
Video
In July, we started to see more Seller’s taking offers anytime, versus a set date for offers to be looked at. The attached market for condos and townhomes continued to be a very strong Seller’s market. Detached homes however pulled back slightly. With both product types, the listing price had an impact on how the property was received by Buyers. This also often determined if multiple offers were received. The next interest rate announcement from the Bank of Canada is on September 6th. As with all prior announcements, it will have an impact on the Market.
