2026 is about clarity, confidence, and smart moves in the Vancouver Real Estate market.

After walking alongside so many buyers and sellers through uncertain markets, I see this year as one where clarity finally matters more than noise. Vancouver has always been a city of neighbourhoods, lifestyles, and long-term vision—and that hasn’t changed.

From the Westside streets I know so well, East Van, to Burnaby and beyond, every move in this city is personal. It’s never just about a price—it’s about schools, walkability, light, community, and where life is headed next. In 2026, the best decisions will come from patience, preparation, and truly understanding what fits.

Whether you’re buying your first home, upsizing, downsizing, relocating or investing, success in 2026 comes from understanding the market—not chasing it.

I’m looking forward to guiding clients through thoughtful buys, well-timed sales, and homes that support the next chapter—not just the next transaction.

Here’s to a year of smart meaningful moves, and finding the right place to call home in Vancouver.

Highlights of Dexter’s November 2025 report

• Look how much you can spend with lower rates

• Listings are shrinking and ratios improving, hinting at a stronger 2026.

• Inventory is falling faster than sales, strengthening market balance.

• Pent up demand continues to grow to unprecedented levels

If home buying is on your holiday shopping list, you’re in luck. Better than any Black Friday sales, Metro Vancouver real estate provides some of the best deals we’ve seen in the last few years. And like those Black Friday deals, these opportunities won’t last forever before inventory shrinks and more buyers come to the table. With interest rates having come down after 9 Bank of Canda rate cuts since the peak in 2024, both variable and fixed rate mortgages are finally at a point that buyers can’t use them as an excuse not to buy. It’s time. In fact, since that peak in 2024, for an average Vancouver household income of $180,000, their purchasing power has gone from $710,000 to $950,000. And home prices have also come down. Two reasons why buyers will be back into the market with greater energy in 2026.

Confidence Ready to Build as Listings Pull Back and Ratios Improve

November delivered a noticeable shift in the Greater Vancouver market, one driven less by headline sales numbers and more by the underlying signals that matter. Yes, sales eased month-over-month across most submarkets, and listings remain higher than last year, but November also brought a sizable pullback in new inventory, firmer sales-to-listings ratios, and early signs that buyers are getting ready for a more active 2026. Taken together, the market is quietly setting the stage for stronger conditions ahead.

This is a month where context is everything. Sales always fall in November, but the real story is how sharply new listings contracted and how much the market’s pace tightened as a result. The region’s sales-to-listings ratio climbed to 49%, a clear improvement from October’s 41%. Months’ supply edged up only slightly to eight months, keeping the market favouring buyers. Despite softer benchmark prices (down 0.3% from October and 3.9% year-over-year), confidence continues to build as inventory normalizes, and interest rate visibility improves.

All the while, pent up demand continues to build. Sales in Greater Vancouver for 2025 will be the lowest total number of transactions since 2000. With a million more people living in the region and over 200,000 more dwellings, logic would suggest that the number of real estate transactions would grow in a similar way. That lack of activity suggests how many buyers and sellers have held back in recent years, but they won’t forever. Changes happen due to needing more space, less space, people coming together or moving apart and sadly passing away. And yes, people do still move to Metro Vancouver.

Greater Vancouver: A Market Ready To Move

Greater Vancouver recorded 1,846 sales in November, an 18% drop from October and while below typical autumn levels, still 8% higher than November 2023. This improvement comes despite a slower autumn season and reflects a market where underlying demand remains intact.

With mortgage rates already down from their peak and buyer sentiment ready to improve, November looks more like a pause than a downturn.

The Supply Side Shrinking

The big move this month came on the supply side. New listings fell 32% from October and were 44% below September levels. Sellers clearly decided to step back, to either wait for improved pricing conditions or to avoid coming to market during the traditionally softest window of the year. With only 3,741 new listings, and active listings dropping 8% from October to 15,149, the market shed some of the excess inventory that accumulated during spring and summer.

Even with softer sales, the sharper decline in new supply pushed the sales-to-listings ratio up to 49%, a healthy improvement that signals tightening conditions underneath the headline numbers. Month’s supply rose slightly to eight months, which still places the region broadly in buyer’s market territory, but the trend is clear: the pace is stabilizing.

Greater Vancouver sales in November were 21% below the 10-year average, after October was 15% below the 10-year average. The momentum builds as sellers wait for the right opportunity signaling it is time to buy and move on from their current home.  

The number of new listings in November were 3% above the 10-year average after October at 16% above the 10-year average, and September at 20% above the 10-year average. November was a sudden shift of sellers holding on listing after a year that will likely produce near record highs for total new listings. With the holiday season upon us, expect this trend of decreasing listing totals to continue as sellers wait to see how 2026 starts. Savy buyers will take advantage of opportunities through December though, as this month can produce motivated sellers to engage with those interested buyers.

By numbers the region shifted back into a buyer’s market, after one month of balanced. But let’s be clear, 2025 has been the year of the buyer’s market.  

Vancouver Westside: Stable Conditions With a Healthier Ratio

Vancouver’s Westside saw 363 sales, down modestly from October’s 403 but up a solid 15% year-over-year. The seasonal slowdown was met with a significant reduction in new listings, down 33% month-over-month which helped ease active listings to 2,885 (a 7% monthly drop).

This pullback in supply had an immediate effect: the sales-to-listings ratio climbed to 51%, a sharp improvement from October’s 38%. Even with eight months of supply on the ground, November’s numbers point to a market that is far more balanced than the summer peak.

The luxury segment in Vancouver tends to lag broader market shifts, so a stabilizing ratio at this time of year is a positive sign heading into early 2026. Price softness may still be in play, but the fundamentals are firmer than they appear.

Vancouver East Side: Activity Softens but Demand Holds

East Vancouver saw sales fall to 210 units, a 22% drop from October, but almost identical to September and up 20% from November 2023. Active listings declined 9% month-over-month to 1,517, and new listings dropped 30% compared to October with half as many as September.

This tightening brought month’s supply up slightly to seven months, still balanced and pushed the sales-to-listings ratio to a healthy 50%, better than both October at 45%. 

The Suburb Story

North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Richmond, and much of Burnaby showed a clear pattern in November: softer seasonal sales paired with a meaningful pullback in new listings, which helped strengthen sales-to-listings ratios across the board. North Vancouver and Burnaby East led with notably strong ratios of 55%, supported by shrinking inventory and steady buyer engagement. West Vancouver also posted an encouraging jump to a 46% ratio—an early sign that higher-end buyers are re-entering the market ahead of spring. Richmond, Burnaby South, Burnaby North, and New Westminster all benefited from fewer new sellers, which tightened conditions.

Across the Tri-Cities, Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, all showed similar stabilization. Port Coquitlam stood out with one of the strongest ratios in the region at 66%, backed by falling inventory and steady demand driven by relative affordability. Pitt Meadows remained firmly in seller’s territory with an exceptional 80% ratio, while Maple Ridge and Port Moody each saw improved balance as listings contracted. Even in slower markets like Tsawwassen and New Westminster, buyer activity proved more resilient than headline sales suggest, with ratios improving and inventory trending down. Overall, despite November’s seasonal cooling, most submarkets strengthened beneath the surface, setting the stage for a more confident start to the new year.

Fraser Valley Sees Listing Drop

The Fraser Valley saw 943 sales, down from October, but the more important story is the sharp drop in new listings (down 26%) and a sizable 9% reduction in active inventory over last month and 13% down from a year ago. With fewer homes coming to market, buyer competition increased, and the average price rose 2% month-over-month.

Despite being in a buyers’ market with 10 months of supply, the Fraser Valley Region, there could be some early signs of stabilization and price recovery after a more difficult reaction to higher rates and economic turmoil. Surrey continues to struggle with 17 months’ supply of detached homes and 20 months supply of condos. Opportunity awaits buyers there.

Outlook: A Quiet November with a Positive Undercurrent

November didn’t deliver big numbers, but it delivered something more important: tightening conditions across the board. Sales slowed down, but inventory came down even faster. Ratios improved. Buyers showed up where pricing was right. And early signs of confidence driven by improving interest rates and a steep drop in new listings are now visible across nearly every submarket.

As we move toward 2026, Greater Vancouver is poised for a more active environment than we saw in the second half of 2025. The fundamentals are better than they look, and the region is entering winter on far more stable footing than it did a year ago.

Highlights of Dexter’s May 2025 report

• Buyers are throwing more offers against listings

• Active listing count continues to rise, but at a slower pace

• Sales continue to increase month over month

• Bank of Canada stays the course for now

Month by month, sales have increased in 2025, although not at the pace familiar to the Metro Vancouver housing market. Even with this slower pace, there appears to be signs of increased buyer activity. And it might just be that buyers are throwing spaghetti against the wall. Offers sent out to see if they will stick. Buyers know they have choice and are exercising it liberally. Some sellers are coming down to meet buyers and the spaghetti is sticking, where others aren’t and it’s falling away. Expect the trend of more offers sticking to continue through the next few months.

May was for the most part a month of reprieve from elections, Bank of Canada decisions and tariff talks – until the very end of the month. In comes June, with the Bank of Canada meeting on June 4th and potential fallout from an increase in tariffs for steel and aluminum. Of course, tariff threats can change direction quicker than emails can be opened. The Canadian government has its work cut out for it, but they talk a good game promising better housing affordability through record supply and tax cuts while transforming the Canadian economy, all told when their throne speech was read out by King Charles. If they can bring some stability to the rhetoric from down south, it may help to get buyers more excited about real estate. While the Bank of Canada paused rate cuts again this month due to sticky inflation and GDP numbers showing some life in the economy – albeit front loaded from early purchases at the start of 2025 to avoid said tariffs, these pauses can’t last forever. But let’s not focus on interest rates, they are at levels matching the 10-year average. Confidence is what needs to be driving the real estate market, and the lack there of it, is keeping sales down.

There were 2,228 properties sold in Greater Vancouver in May, after 2,163 properties sold in April, 2,091 properties sold in March, and 1,827 properties sold in February. Uncertainty continued to keep buyers on the sidelines through May, much like the previous months this year. Imagine how many people are in the wrong homes and wishing they weren’t.  Much like a box of chocolates though, you don’t know what each neighbourhood is doing until you dig into them. Some slowed in May while others pushed ahead. Take West Vancouver which saw sales double in May from April and achieve the highest monthly sales since June of last year. While areas like Vancouver West, Port Coquitlam and Pitt Meadows saw less sales in May compared to April. In a market where price sensitivity is one of the most important, condo sales slowed in May compared to April, down 4%. It took a 25% off sale in Surrey to get buyers back to the table at that project.

Even though Greater Vancouver home sales in May have outpaced the previous months in 2025 so far, sales levels are still well below last year. Sales in May were down 18% compared to May last year after sales in April were down 24% compared to April last year. West Vancouver, Burnaby East, Port Moody, Tsawwassen Squamish showed sales increases over May of last year. Perhaps the bright side of where sales in May tallied is that the month of May typically lags April. While only a slight gain over April, an improvement it was.

Heading east, the Fraser Valley region saw sales in May down 22% compared to May last year after being down 29% in April this year compared to April 2024. Although, compared to Greater Vancouver, sales were up much more month-over-month in May, showing 15% growth compared to April. Much better than the 3% month-over-month gain in Greater Vancouver. The Fraser Valley is showing signs of buyer engagement.

Greater Vancouver sales in May were 30% below the 10-year average, compared to April at 31% below the 10-year average, March at 35% below the 10-year average, and February at 39% below the 10-year average. Outside of 2020, total home sales in May were the lowest going back to the last two years of the 1900’s. It’s hard to believe that May 1991 saw 3800 sales with much less people and far fewer homes available in Greater Vancouver. Pent up demand is a thing and it’s growing by the day. 

Sellers slowed down slightly in May with 6,728 new listings hitting the MLS® last month. This compared with April where 6,952 new listings came on, March with 6,565 new listings and 5,163 new listings in February. And while the absorption rate rose to 33% in May, it was only just above April at 31%, and March at 32%. Only a third of new listings are selling in 2025, which has caused the number of for sale signs in Metro Vancouver to swell with many staying up longer without “sold” on them. It’s at the point where availability of for sale signs has become a challenge in some areas. Sellers aren’t slowing enough though, so we’re going to need more signs.  

The number of new listings in May were 9% above the 10-year average after April was 19% above the 10-year average and compared with March at 15% above the 10-year average.  

There were 17,094 active listings in Greater Vancouver at month end compared to 16,207 active listings at the end of April, and 14,546 at the end of March. Total active listings are up from 13,600 at the end of May last year, a 26% year-over-year increase. This number has been steadily falling though, with April at a 30% increase year-over-year, and March at 38% year-over-year. There are several listings that get recycled after being cancelled and then brought back on the market at a lower price as well. And as we get closer to the summer months, expect to see some sellers come off the market either for the summer or until the market is more in favour of sellers. 

Months of supply increased to 8 in May from 7 months in April pushing the region into more of a buyer’s market. With active listings climbing and sales growth slow, it’s not surprising to see Greater Vancouver move into this buyer’s market. But what an opportunity for buyers. Expect to see more spaghetti thrown against the walls over the next few months as buyers take advantage of the greatest buying opportunity we’ve seen in many years.

The detached market in Greater Vancouver remained at 10 months supply which is a solid buyer’s market, while townhomes remained at 6 months and condos increased to 7 months supply on the heels of a slower month – keeping those in a balanced market. In the Fraser Valley, months of supply dropped down to 8 months from 10 months, with detached dropping to 10 months supply from 11 months, townhomes remaining at 6 months and condos climbing to 8 months supply from 7.

Greater Vancouver townhome sales in May were down 10% compared to May last year, while condos sales were down 18% year-over-year. Detached sales struggled again compared to last year, down 22% from May last year. Townhome inventory was up 29% year-over year compared to 32% up at the end of April, while condo inventory dropped to 24% above May 2024 after being up 32% in April year-over-year. Detached homes were up 27% year-over-year, compared to being up 26% at the end of April. Over in the Fraser Valley, detached home inventory is up 24% year-over-year compared to 36% at the end of April while townhome inventory is up 40% year-over-year after being up 57% at the end of April and up 72% year-over-year at the end of March. Condo inventory is up 31% year-over-year after being up 45% at the end of April and 67% year-over-year at the end of March. Surrey and Delta continue to struggle with inflated inventory and slower sales, while areas east like Abbotsford and Aldergrove performed better year-over-year in May. 

Despite ongoing economic uncertainties and a slower-than-usual pace for Metro Vancouver's housing market, 2025 has seen steady month-over-month sales growth, with May continuing that trend. Increased buyer activity, encouraged by greater choice and moderating prices, signals growing confidence. While total sales remain below historical and year-over-year averages, regions like West Vancouver and parts of the Fraser Valley posted strong gains, highlighting a patchwork of momentum across neighborhoods. Inventory levels are up, creating a clear buyer’s market, and with interest rates stabilizing and pent-up demand growing, many see this as one of the best buying opportunities in recent years.

Highlights of Dexter’s February 2025 report

• Sales in February down 11% year-over-year

• New listings in February drop 9% from January

• Active listings continue to accumulate at a slower rate

• Tariff troubles begin 

The year of political uncertainty continues. Tariff or not to tariff has been the question to start 2025 and continued through the month of February before culminating with a thud of tariffs on March 3. And while the hush that came across from buyers wasn’t all too unexpected, some sellers as well joined in the pause of activity in February. While sales in February were above the totals in January, new listing totals declined in February from January, not a common occurrence in the real estate market. It appears that the uncertainty around tariffs and interest rates affected the real estate market in February. This uncertainty may play out in the coming months, not to mention Canada’s own federal election coming this year. And the election promises are likely to impact what decisions people make with real estate. There is already talk of GST exemptions on new homes either up to $1M or $1.5M depending on which candidate wins, capital gains discussions and likely a push for supply from all sides. With 1.2 million mortgages up for renewal in 2025, some homeowners that have been afraid to make a move due to locked in low rates may now look to make that move they weren’t prepared to do as opposed to just renewing their mortgage. 

Amidst all the political talk, the Bank of Canada will make their next interest rate decision on March 12th, with expectations somewhat mixed on whether another rate cut will happen. With tariffs now in place, the Bank of Canada may need to do another jumbo cut of at least 50 points. With inflation still below 2% and Canadian GDP sputtering along, the case is there for another rate cut by the Bank of Canada. And that’s even before considering the effects of tariffs. And when the economy suffers due to tariffs, expect the same to be considered when the Bank of Canada meets in April again.

There were 1,827 properties sold in Greater Vancouver in February after 1,552 properties sold in January, 1,765 properties sold in December, and 2,181 properties sold in November. The real estate market has undertones of a market wanting to move – literally. The increase in sales from January came amidst much political uncertainty and with fewer listings coming on the market in February compared to January. Cautiously moving forward, with buyers still having the advantage in today’s real estate market. 

Greater Vancouver home sales lagged the previous year for the first time since September after a strong fourth quarter in 2024. No one should be surprised. Sales in February were down 11% compared to February 2024 with 2,070 homes sold and the same as February 2023 at 1,824 sales. This after January was 9% higher compared to the 1,427 properties sold in January 2024 and were a 51% increase from the 1,030 sales in January 2023. Heading east, the Fraser Valley region saw sales in February down 27% compared to February 2024 and at similar levels to February 2023. 

Greater Vancouver sales in February were 39% below the 10-year average compared to January where sales were 29% below the 10-year average, December which was 12% below the 10-year average and November sales at 13% below the 10-year average. This was not a typical February, due mostly to uncertainty and partly due to weather with a 2-week cold snap which included snow (although nothing in comparison to the snow experienced in Eastern Canada.) Only fives times since the year 2000 have we seen less than 2,000 sales in Greater Vancouver for the month of February. Considering there were 4,051 sales in February 1989, this goes to show how few transactions are occurring given the increase in population and housing stocking over the last 35 years. People are holding on to the homes they buy, which exacerbates the lack of supply of available homes. And with a project in North Vancouver’s Lynn Canyon switching to all rental as opposed to a mix of rental and strata, there will be 205 fewer units available to purchase in that already supply starved market. At least Port Moody got the memo for more supply as they approved the first towers for its downtown core with over 1,000 units approved in 3 towers near the Moody Centre Sky Train station.

Sellers were less active in February, perhaps joining buyers on the side of uncertainty. There were 5,163 new listings in February, compared with 5,644 new listings that came on in January in Greater Vancouver. With sales levels still lagging through the first two months of the year, this might have kept some sellers taking a wait and see approach. But it was still well above the numbers of new listings compared to February last year which saw 4,651 come on and significantly more than the 3,559 new listings that came on the market in February 2023. The sales to listings ratio did rise in February, with 35% of new listings selling during the month, compared to 27% in January. But still below the 45% in February 2024 and 51% in February 2023. This points to more favourable conditions for buyers as well.

The number of new listings in February were 12% above the 10-year average, compared with January which saw the number of new listings 30% above the 10-year average and December was right at the 10-year average. There were properties listed in January that came off the market in late 2024 which added to the totals for that month and after seeing the slower start to the year and continued uncertainty, some sellers may have decided to wait and see if there are any impacts from the tariffs and resulting economic damage. March typically produces more new listings as the spring market kicks in. Even with the two-week school spring break, we’ll likely see more listings again this year compared to February but that could also depend on what the economic climate is like as we move through these tumultuous times. Predicting the future is subject to many variables so typical may not be part of the vocabulary for March this year.

There were 12,744 active listings in Greater Vancouver at month end, compared to 11,494 at the end of January. About 250 listings came off the market after the end of February, so March started with a lower total of active listings. 

Months of supply remained at 7 months in Greater Vancouver due to less listings coming on in February. The detached market in Greater Vancouver dropped down to 9 from 11 months supply, compared to 8 months supply in December while townhomes stayed at 5 months after being at 4 months in December and condos also held, staying at 6 months after being at 5 months in December. The trend of townhome properties being the least available and most competitive continued. North Vancouver and Port Coquitlam remain in a seller’s market with only 4 months of supply with Burnaby North and Ladner dropping down to 4 months supply in the townhouse segment and Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge sitting with 2 months supply. Squamish saw a significant jump in sales in February and now sits with 2 months supply of townhouses while detached is at 3 months supply in Squamish. 

Townhome sales in January for the region were up 10% compared to February last year, while condos sales were up 15% year-over-year. Detached sales lagged those product segments at 3% up from February last year. Townhome inventory overall was up 34% year-over year compared to 39% at the end of January, while condo inventory remained up 37% and detached homes were up 27% compared to 28% year-over-year at the end of January. 

The Greater Vancouver real estate market in February 2025 reflected ongoing political and economic uncertainty, with tariffs taking effect on March 3 and interest rate decisions looming. While home sales increased from January, new listings declined, an unusual trend for the season. With a federal election and mortgage renewals on the horizon, market conditions remain unpredictable heading into spring. But after several years of below average activity, this is a market just waiting to move.
