A decline in sales of single-family homes has also contributed to a decrease in average sale prices. Despite this, the CMHC has maintained a moderate overvaluation rating, as a longer period of improved home prices is required to deem national overvaluation low.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/biv.com\/article\/2018\/10\/vancouver-housing-market-highly-vulnerable-despite-easing-prices-cmhc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CMHC : Vancouver Housing Market Highly Vulnerable Despite Easing Prices<\/a> by Tanya Commisso | Business in Vancouver<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Metro Vancouver housing market is still exhibiting signs of overvaluation as home prices continue to outpace local income growth, according to a new Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) &hellip;
