VANCOUVER, B.C. – May 2, 2013 – A closer relationship between home buyer demand and
the supply of homes for sale has been having a stabilizing impact on home prices in the Greater
Vancouver housing market over the last three months.
The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential property sales in
Greater Vancouver reached 2,627 on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in April 2013. This
represents a 6.1 per cent decrease compared to the 2,799 sales recorded in April 2012, and an
11.9 per cent increase compared to the 2,347 sales in March 2013.
Last month’s sales equate to the lowest April total in the region since 2001 and 20.9 per cent
below the 10-year sales average for the month.
“While the number of home sales remains below average, properties that are priced right are
selling and we’re seeing greater balance between buyer demand and the number of homes listed
for sale. This is having a steadying influence on home prices in the region,” says Sandra Wyant,
REBGV president. click here for complete report.

March 4,2013 - Home sale activity has trended below historical averages for a full year in the Greater Vancouver housing market. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential property sales in Greater Vancouver reached 1,797 on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February 2013. This represents a 29.4 per cent decrease compared to the 2,545 sales recorded in February 2012, and a 33 per cent increase compared to the 1,351 sales in January 2012. Last month’s sales were the second lowest February total in the region since 2001 and 30.9 per cent below the 10-year sales average for the month. “Sales in February followed recent trends and were below seasonal averages, though our members tell us they saw more traffic at open houses last month compared to the previous six to eight months, said Eugen Klein, REBGV president. The sales-to-active-listings ratio currently sits at 12.2 per cent in Greater Vancouver, a two per cent increase from last month. This is the first time this ratio has been above 11 per cent since June 2012. “With a two-point increase in our sales to active listings ratio and a reduction in the average number of days it’s taking to sell a home, February showed some subtle indications of a changing sentiment in the marketplace compared to recent months,” Klein said.
