Greater Vancouver April 2018 Market Update

April saw more home sellers than buyers in the Metro Vancouver* housing market.

Residential property sales in the region totalled 2,579 in April 2018, a 27.4 percent decrease from the 3,553 sales recorded in April 2017, and a 2.5 percent increase compared to March 2018 when 2,517 homes sold, according to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. Last month’s sales were 22.5 percent below the 10-year April sales average.

Changing market conditions are evident, this is due in part to the new mortgage requirements implemented by the federal government which have diminished home buyer’s purchasing power.

A total of 5,820 detached, attached and apartment properties were newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in April 2018, representing an 18.6 percent increase compared to the 4,907 homes listed in April 2017 and a 30.8 percent increase compared to March 2018 when 4,450 homes were listed.

Currently, the number of properties listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 9,822, a 25.7 percent increase compared to April 2017 (7,813) and a 17.2 percent increase compared to March 2018 (8,380).

For April 2018, the sales-to-active listings ratio is 26.3 percent for all property types. By property type, the ratio is 14.1 percent for detached homes, 36.1 percent for townhomes, and 46.7 percent for condominiums.

Generally, downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below the 12 percent mark for a sustained period, according to analysts, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it surpasses 20 percent over several months.

The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $1,092,000. This represents a 14.3 percent increase over April 2017 and a 0.7 percent increase compared to March 2018.

There were 807 sales of detached properties in April 2018, which was a 3.4 percent decrease from the 1,211 detached sales recorded in April 2017. The benchmark price for detached properties is $1,605,800. This represents a 5.1 percent increase from April 2017 and a 0.2 percent decrease compared to March 2018.

Sales of apartment properties decreased 24 percent from last year, reaching 1,308 in April 2018. The benchmark price of an apartment property is $701,000. This represents a 23.7 percent increase from April 2017 and a 1.1 percent increase compared to March 2018.

Sales of attached properties in April 2018 totalled 464, a 25.2 percent decrease compared to the 620 sales in April 2017. The benchmark price of an attached unit is $854,200. This represents a 17.7 percent increase from April 2017 and a 2.3 percent increase compared to March 2018.

In the Fraser Valley, buying activity remained modest throughout the month of April despite a bump in inventory across all three major residential types.

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board saw 1,708 sales across all property types in April 2018, a decrease of 23.4 percent compared to the 2,230 sales in April of last year, and a 2.6 percent increase compared to the 1,664 sales in March 2018.

Of those sales, 413 were townhomes and 498 were apartments, together making up 53 percent of all transactions in April.

At the end of April 5,667 listings remained active, an increase of 18.2 percent month over month, and 15.3 percent when compared to April 2017.

3,429 new listings went up in April, a 19.7 percent increase from March 2018’s 2,865 new listings, and a 16.2 percent increase compared to April 2017.

The average number of days to sell an apartment in April was 14, and 16 for townhomes in the Fraser Valley region.

It took single family detached homes an average of 26 days on the market before selling.
