Sales of single family homes over $1 million dropped 27% from the previous summer to 213 units, and detached sales over $4 million fell 38% to 24 homes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sotheby\u2019s said that even the more robust condo market, which has continued to see increasing prices, will be affected. The report stated, \u201cThe top-tier condominium market, which had remained resilient in the first half of 2018 with 9% year-over-year gains to 708 units sold over $1 million, waned over the summer months. Condominiums over $1 million saw sales volume fall 21% in July and August to 162 units sold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Brad Henderson, president and CEO of Sotheby\u2019s International Realty Canada, said, \u201cHigh-end sales and prices are softening in Vancouver, not only in the single family home segment, but across the city\u2019s heated condominium and attached home markets. In the upcoming fall market, it will be buyers and investors who will hold the upper hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The brokerage added that the first two weeks of September have been extremely slow, in a month that usually picks up activity after a summer lull. \u201cThis downward trend persisted throughout the first two weeks of September. Preliminary numbers reveal that overall residential real estate sales over $1 million fell 66% year-over-year, to 55 units sold from September 1 to 15.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The report concluded, \u201cWith new listings inventory being added to the market and cooling demand, Vancouver\u2019s top-tier market will entrench in favour of buyers to the end of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/biv.com\/article\/2018\/09\/1m-real-estate-metro-vancouver-turning-buyers-market-even-condos-sothebys\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sotheby&#8217;s : $1M+ Real Estate in Metro Vancouver Turning into A Buyer&#8217;s Market &#8211; Even for Condos<\/a> by Joannah Connolly | Glacier Media | Business in Vancouver<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a lacklustre summer performance, Metro Vancouver\u2019s $1 million-plus real estate market is set to see even greater declines this fall, according to a Sotheby\u2019s forecast released September 26.
