Home sales in Metro Vancouver were only 7.6% below the 10-year sales average for November. “While 2016 has been anything but a normal year for the Metro Vancouver housing market, supply and demand totals have returned to more historically normal levels over the last few months,” said Dan Morrison, Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver president.

 

Overall, residential home sales totalled 2,214; a decrease of 0.9% from October 2016 and a 37.2% decrease from November 2015. Detached homes are seeing the most impact at the moment, as demand (relative to supply) for them is lower than for townhomes and apartments. This is causing a stabilizing effect on prices for townhomes and apartments, while detached homes are on a modest price decline.
