This was 20.7 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,356).</p><p class="block-p">“The soft August sales data suggest the modest downward revisions we recently made to our 2026 forecast were a timely and prudent decision,” said Andrew Lis, GVR chief economist and vice-president data analytics.</p><p class="block-p">“The market’s performance matched our expectations for the first four months of 2026, but since May, sales have lagged our January forecast, and we expect that trend to persist to the end of the year.”</p><p class="block-p">There were 4,100 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in August 2026, representing a three per cent decrease compared to the 4,225 properties listed in August 2025.

Across all detached, attached and apartment property types, the sales-to-active listings ratio for August 2026 is 12.3 per cent.</p><p class="block-p">By property type, the ratio is 9.6 per cent for detached homes, 15.1 per cent for attached, and 13.7 per cent for apartments. Analysis of the historical data suggests downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below 12 per cent for a sustained period, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it surpasses 20 per cent over several months.</p><p class="block-p">“Previously, we’ve noted that inventory levels have receded from their 2025 heights. This gradual decline, paired with slower-than-usual sales, has caused prices to drift downwards across all market segments, with the composite price index now down approximately six per cent year over year,” Lis said.</p><p class="block-p">“Ample selection, softening prices, and stable mortgage rates are considered favorable buying conditions, but they haven't been enough to bring many buyers off the sidelines. While the renewed trade tensions with the USA are an unwelcome distraction for the market, we still believe the main drivers of this soft market are the slowdown in immigration to our region, reduced investor demand, and mortgage rates that aren’t low enough to incentivize robust buying activity.”</p><div data-type="download-link" data-align="left" class="align-left"><a href="https://andrewhasman.com/wps/rest/21636/blog/ptiu/ptiusxgmjxfm.pdf" target="true">GET FULL REPORT</a></div><p class="block-p"></p> Fri, 11 Sep 2026 21:57:17 GMT https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/home-sales-continue-downward-trend-to-close-the-summer-9147946 2026-09-11T21:57:17Z https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/new-property-listed-in-kerrisdale-vancouver-west-9142757 <div class='listing-banner listing-banner-NEW-BANNER' style='background-color: #1f993b' data-banner='NEW LISTING' ></div> <DIV>We have listed a new property at 302 2189 42nd Avenue W in Vancouver. <div class="listing-details-link-section"> <a href="https://andrewhasman.com/mylistings.html/listing.r3163245-302-2189-w-42nd-avenue-vancouver-v6m-2b7.109748037">See details here</a> </div> </DIV> <DIV><div class="listing-description-section"> In the heart of Kerrisdale across from Kerrisdale Community Ctr and Seniors Ctr.

While countless homeowners have since converted to newer systems, not every tank was removed.</p><p class="block-p">In some cases, these tanks remain buried beneath the property, unnoticed for decades.</p><h2><strong>What Is a Buried Oil Tank?</strong></h2><p class="block-p">Before natural gas became widely available, heating oil was the standard for many Vancouver homes. Fuel was stored in large steel tanks buried underground, typically in the front or back yard.</p><p class="block-p">When homeowners switched heating systems, some tanks were professionally removed, while others were abandoned in place.</p><p class="block-p">As a result, many homeowners may not even realize an old tank still exists on their property.</p><div data-type="block-image" data-block="true" data-align="none"><img src="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/egpXbotWjqRDCO2vS1Lp2K6OZu5CQzhG-ZiFM_PUqqo/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2Nxb3gvY3FveHd4dWFyamRoLmpwZw" class="" data-type="content-image" data-original-src="//static.myrealpage.com/wps/rest/21636/blog/cqox/cqoxwxuarjdh.jpg" srcset="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/egpXbotWjqRDCO2vS1Lp2K6OZu5CQzhG-ZiFM_PUqqo/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2Nxb3gvY3FveHd4dWFyamRoLmpwZw 1600w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/qFbckFDeZVT94EoOy23xA3gGsFGZVmMabo5gjVq-T78/rs:auto:1200:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2Nxb3gvY3FveHd4dWFyamRoLmpwZw 1200w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/qR1r8YM1ergXrzPtqXRY0hkSwQ1F_QNBG-krYHEHyss/rs:auto:800:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2Nxb3gvY3FveHd4dWFyamRoLmpwZw 800w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/lGxn0S1E9mbhgTV3ULxNbm9md9teaeN0Qvr-rPY-_j4/rs:auto:600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2Nxb3gvY3FveHd4dWFyamRoLmpwZw 600w" sizes="100vw"></div><h2><strong>Why Does It Matter?</strong></h2><p class="block-p">A buried oil tank isn't necessarily a problem simply because it's there.</p><p class="block-p">However, older steel tanks can corrode over time, increasing the risk of leaks that may contaminate the surrounding soil. If contamination is discovered, cleanup costs can be significant and may delay or complicate the sale of a home.</p><p class="block-p">Buyers, lenders, and insurance providers often ask whether a property has—or previously had—a buried oil tank, making it an important consideration during the selling process.</p><h2><strong>How Can You Find Out?</strong></h2><p class="block-p">If your home was built several decades ago, it's worth investigating your property's history.</p><p class="block-p">You may want to:</p><p class="block-p">✔ Review previous property records</p><p class="block-p">✔ Ask whether the home originally used oil heat</p><p class="block-p">✔ Check for documentation showing the tank was removed</p><p class="block-p">✔ Arrange a professional oil tank scan if you're unsure</p><p class="block-p">Taking these steps before listing your home can help identify potential issues early and provide valuable peace of mind.</p><div data-type="block-image" data-block="true" data-align="none"><img src="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/2XqCsEeBFncDa2TNqARHN58xEBoUVal9dOetukWcQrU/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3dhbmsvd2Fua3ZkaHR5eWdrLnBuZw" class="" data-type="content-image" data-original-src="//static.myrealpage.com/wps/rest/21636/blog/wank/wankvdhtyygk.png" srcset="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/2XqCsEeBFncDa2TNqARHN58xEBoUVal9dOetukWcQrU/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3dhbmsvd2Fua3ZkaHR5eWdrLnBuZw 1600w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/2Z2vEk9SBsJurozxoX-SH9PWj4fIr-BDAShnnqbzeDs/rs:auto:1200:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3dhbmsvd2Fua3ZkaHR5eWdrLnBuZw 1200w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/MdmSrzYN58jbbbUd5w1ZuNpTiyPIrULRHgGAGJcrdxc/rs:auto:800:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3dhbmsvd2Fua3ZkaHR5eWdrLnBuZw 800w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/qTSdqJ2WF_Kz1rmEFpvziBsmgKZzpvPeO8r8qYQUuR4/rs:auto:600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3dhbmsvd2Fua3ZkaHR5eWdrLnBuZw 600w" sizes="100vw"></div><h2><strong>Planning Ahead Can Save Time and Money</strong></h2><p class="block-p">One of the biggest advantages of discovering a buried oil tank before your home goes on the market is having time to evaluate your options.</p><p class="block-p">By addressing questions early, you can avoid last-minute surprises during negotiations, build buyer confidence, and help keep your transaction moving forward smoothly.</p><p class="block-p">Preparation is often one of the most valuable investments a homeowner can make before selling.</p><h2><strong>The Bottom Line</strong></h2><p class="block-p">Buried oil tanks are easy to forget—but they can become an important part of a real estate transaction.</p><p class="block-p">Understanding your home's history and addressing potential concerns before listing can make the selling process far less stressful and help protect the value of your investment.</p><p class="block-p">If you're thinking about selling an older Vancouver home and aren't sure whether a buried oil tank could be an issue, we'd be happy to discuss your property's history and help you determine the next steps.</p><h2><strong>Thinking About Selling?</strong></h2><p class="block-p">Every home has a story—and understanding yours before it goes on the market can make all the difference.</p><p class="block-p">Whether you own a character home, an investment property, or a long-time family residence, we're here to help you navigate the process with confidence.</p><p class="block-p"><strong>Contact Andrew Hasman &amp; Associates</strong> for expert advice and a personalized home selling strategy.</p><h2><strong>Community Spotlight: Honda Celebration of Light</strong></h2><p class="block-p">Summer in Vancouver isn't complete without the <strong>Honda Celebration of Light</strong>!</p><p class="block-p">On <strong>July 31</strong>, English Bay will once again light up with one of the world's largest offshore fireworks competitions.

While many homes with Poly-B continue to function without issues, it's one of the first things buyers, home inspectors, and insurance companies often look for during a real estate transaction.</p><p class="block-p">Understanding what Poly-B is and how it may affect your home can help you make informed decisions, whether you're buying, selling, or simply planning for the future.</p><h2>What Is Poly-B Plumbing?</h2><p class="block-p">Poly-B, short for polybutylene piping, is a flexible plastic plumbing material that was widely used in residential construction because it was affordable and easy to install.</p><p class="block-p">Thousands of homes throughout Metro Vancouver and other parts of Canada were built with Poly-B plumbing during this period.</p><h2>Why Is It a Concern?</h2><p class="block-p">Over time, Poly-B piping has been found to be more susceptible to deterioration than other plumbing materials. Factors such as water quality, pressure, and age can contribute to the pipes becoming brittle or developing leaks.</p><p class="block-p">Not every home with Poly-B will experience problems, but because the material has a history of failures, many buyers and insurance providers pay close attention when it is present.</p><h2>What Does This Mean for Homeowners?</h2><p class="block-p">If your home has Poly-B plumbing, it doesn't necessarily mean you need to replace it immediately.</p><p class="block-p">However, it's a good idea to:</p><ul><li><p class="block-p">Know whether your home has Poly-B piping.</p></li><li><p class="block-p">Have the plumbing inspected if you notice leaks or signs of wear.</p></li><li><p class="block-p">Understand how it may affect your insurance coverage.</p></li><li><p class="block-p">Be prepared to answer buyer questions if you're planning to sell.</p></li></ul><p class="block-p">For some homeowners, replacing the plumbing before listing can provide peace of mind and improve buyer confidence. For others, the existing system may continue to perform well for years. The best approach depends on the home's condition and your long-term plans.</p><h2>The Bottom Line</h2><p class="block-p">Poly-B plumbing is one of several items that buyers often ask about during the home-buying process, but it shouldn't automatically discourage you from purchasing or selling a home.</p><p class="block-p">The most important step is understanding the condition of the plumbing and seeking advice from qualified professionals when needed.</p><p class="block-p">Every home is different, and having the right information allows you to make confident decisions.</p><p class="block-p"></p> Wed, 08 Jul 2026 22:43:06 GMT https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/what-every-vancouver-homeowner-should-know-about-poly-b-plumbing-9081158 2026-07-08T22:43:06Z https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/what-every-vancouver-homeowner-should-know-about-aluminum-wiring-9081152 <div data-type="block-image" data-block="true" data-align="none"><img src="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/XdsUCjKiT-U6POyGpjn2hz0wv1rhB_N4jaST5fO604Q/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3FvZ2MvcW9nY2ptaXlvdWV1LmpwZw" class="" data-type="content-image" data-original-src="//static.myrealpage.com/wps/rest/21636/blog/qogc/qogcjmiyoueu.jpg" srcset="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/XdsUCjKiT-U6POyGpjn2hz0wv1rhB_N4jaST5fO604Q/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3FvZ2MvcW9nY2ptaXlvdWV1LmpwZw 1600w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/QOfszyXgPIGpo_SC8dfrblIYxUUcvSjhu8tnNXCYLzA/rs:auto:1200:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3FvZ2MvcW9nY2ptaXlvdWV1LmpwZw 1200w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/Cv9E67mtki319xlybg_GI61hZsMQG8PPiGZohgnI8KQ/rs:auto:800:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3FvZ2MvcW9nY2ptaXlvdWV1LmpwZw 800w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/6UAibrp23jnHZERuxElkIejrunAEw0iASuozHFdy7LI/rs:auto:600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL3FvZ2MvcW9nY2ptaXlvdWV1LmpwZw 600w" sizes="100vw"></div><p class="block-p">If your home was built between the mid-1960s and late-1970s, there's a chance it contains aluminum electrical wiring.</p><p class="block-p">That doesn't automatically mean there's a problem, but it is something buyers, sellers, and homeowners should understand.</p><h2>Why Was Aluminum Wiring Used?</h2><p class="block-p">During the 1960s and early 1970s, copper prices increased significantly. Builders began using aluminum wiring as a more affordable alternative in many residential homes.</p><p class="block-p">Thousands of homes throughout Metro Vancouver were built during this period.</p><h2>Is Aluminum Wiring Dangerous?</h2><p class="block-p">Not necessarily.</p><p class="block-p">When properly installed and maintained, aluminum wiring can continue to perform safely. However, over time, aluminum expands and contracts more than copper. This movement can loosen electrical connections, potentially creating overheating issues if not properly addressed.</p><p class="block-p">Because of this, insurance companies, home inspectors, and buyers often pay close attention when aluminum wiring is present.</p><h2>Buying or Selling a Home With Aluminum Wiring</h2><p class="block-p">If you're buying a home, a professional home inspection can help determine the condition of the electrical system and whether any upgrades or safety improvements have been completed.</p><p class="block-p">If you're selling, understanding your home's wiring before listing can help you answer buyer questions and avoid surprises during negotiations.</p><p class="block-p">In some cases, simple improvements or documentation from a qualified electrician can provide buyers with additional confidence.</p><h2>The Bottom Line</h2><p class="block-p">Aluminum wiring doesn't automatically reduce a home's value or make it unsafe.</p><p class="block-p">Like many aspects of real estate, the condition of the home, proper maintenance, and expert guidance matter far more than assumptions.</p><p class="block-p">Whether you're buying, selling, or simply planning ahead, understanding your home's electrical system helps you make more informed decisions.</p><h2>Featured Video</h2><p class="block-p">Featured Listing :&nbsp;505 E 28th Avenue, Vancouver</p><p class="block-p"><a target="true" rel="" href="https://youtu.be/KYnSndc6uG4" data-type="link"><em>Watch full video here:&nbsp;</em></a></p> Wed, 08 Jul 2026 21:36:15 GMT https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/what-every-vancouver-homeowner-should-know-about-aluminum-wiring-9081152 2026-07-08T21:36:15Z https://andrewhasman.com/blog.html/we-have-sold-a-property-at-3281-30th-avenue-w-in-vancouver-9078181 <div class='listing-banner listing-banner-SOLD-BANNER' style='background-color: #f80000' data-banner='SOLD' ></div> <DIV>We have sold a property at 3281 30th Avenue W in Vancouver. <div class="listing-details-link-section"> <a href="https://andrewhasman.com/mylistings.html/listing.r3105466-3281-w-30th-avenue-vancouver-v6l-1z5.108349891">See details here</a> </div> </DIV> <DIV><div class="listing-description-section"> Best Westside family oriented location right across the street from Balaclava Park.

Once the decision to sell has been made, many owners want to get their home listed as quickly as possible. However, rushing to market without taking care of important details can cost far more than the time and money required to prepare the home properly.</p><p class="block-p">First impressions matter. Buyers often decide how they feel about a property within the first few minutes of arriving. If the exterior looks neglected, many buyers will assume the same level of care extends throughout the home.</p><p class="block-p">A recent example perfectly illustrates this point.</p><div data-type="block-image" data-block="true" data-align="none"><img src="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/xKXuM3fmQYB_w8niXjMNf1MbWPeNg3FODHAH9uTQb28/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2d5ZmovZ3lmanR1ZmphZnllLnBuZw" class="" data-type="content-image" data-original-src="//static.myrealpage.com/wps/rest/21636/blog/gyfj/gyfjtufjafye.png" srcset="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/xKXuM3fmQYB_w8niXjMNf1MbWPeNg3FODHAH9uTQb28/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2d5ZmovZ3lmanR1ZmphZnllLnBuZw 1600w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/UKRXy0E0i3Y__4AaUt0G8UMlSRYsBiF5Z9KyFBGd60Y/rs:auto:1200:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2d5ZmovZ3lmanR1ZmphZnllLnBuZw 1200w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/YOY1v_nhrWlniBA-q1G_JKorrXZ9gU8Wxy1ujr7CYy8/rs:auto:800:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2d5ZmovZ3lmanR1ZmphZnllLnBuZw 800w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/ZhxJOdplkAM4tLuKXcV9SoI502yMP1Z0riXvUGJj4ks/rs:auto:600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC8yMTYzNi9ibG9nL2d5ZmovZ3lmanR1ZmphZnllLnBuZw 600w" sizes="100vw"></div><p class="block-p">This property was located in a highly desirable neighbourhood and offered everything buyers were looking for.

This was 22.9 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,735). </p><p class="block-p">“Last month we noted that a divergence was emerging between sales trends in the detached and multi-family segments, which continued in April,” said Andrew Lis, GVR chief economist and vice-president data analytics.</p><p class="block-p"> “Sales of detached homes have been gaining year-overyear, while sales in the multi-family segment have declined, and this pattern is consistent across most areas. The fact this pattern is so broad-based reduces the likelihood what we’re seeing is just a blip in the data since the momentum isn’t isolated to small pockets of the market.”</p><p class="block-p"> There were 6,684 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in April 2026. This represents a 2.4 per cent decrease compared to the 6,850 properties listed in April 2025. This was 15.5 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average (5,785). The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 16,236, a 0.2 per cent increase compared to April 2025 (16,207).
