In November, Metro Vancouver* saw modest home listing changes and steady buyer demand. Last month, sales were 17% above the 10-year November average, and in-fact, home buyer activity has been operating above long-term averages throughout 2017, particulary in the condo and townhome markets. And, while we have seen an improvement in active listing levels in 2017, we have a longway to go before they rise back to more historically typical levels.

Data was current on December 4, 2017 from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Metro Vancouver Residential Sales Exceed October Historical AverageThe Real Estate Board of Metro Vancouver reports: "Metro Vancouver* home sales exceeded historical levels in October with the majority concentrated in the townhouse and apartment markets; last month's sales were 15% above the 10-year averages for October. Market conditions vary significantly based on property type. The detached market is well supplied with homes for sale, which is relieving pressure on prices. It remains a much different story in the townhouse and apartment markets, buyers here continue to face a limited supply and are seeing upward pressure on prices." The Federal government's announcement of plans to tighten mortgage requirments for the seventh time in the last eight years also helped spur buyer activity in the short term. Many buyers are trying to enter the market before the changes are in place.
