The latter measure has affected investors and apartment owners especially hard.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt was just easier [for many investors] to do nothing,\u201d CBRE executive vice president Lance Coulson said, as quoted by the Vancouver Sun.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThere were a lot of things going on in the market that created some uncertainty. A number of investors were on the sidelines \u2026 wanting to see what 2019 was going to bring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From January to June, apartment sales in the Vancouver region amounted to just over $400 million. This represented a pace far lower than last year\u2019s, which enjoyed an overall 2018 total of $1.4 billion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cBased on a few deals that have sold since June, and what I believe is currently in play, I estimate that total sales for year-end 2019 could be in the $850-million range,\u201d Coulson predicted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Extremely tight supply in the affordable housing segment remained a feature of the Vancouver market, with rental vacancy hovering around a mere 1% by the end of last year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The recent edition of IPA\u2019s Midyear Canadian Multifamily Investment Forecast Report also indicated that Vancouver remains the most expensive housing market in the country. The benchmark price for single detached homes currently exceeds $1.4 million, and the median mortgage payment is around $4,000 greater than the market\u2019s average rental rate.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadianrealestatemagazine.ca\/news\/vancouver-property-investment-has-significantly-slowed-down-this-year-304043.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vancouver Property Investment Has Significantly Slowed down This Year<\/a> by Ephraim Vecina | Canadian Real Estate Wealth<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market and economic uncertainty has proven to be a damper on real estate investor activity in Vancouver, according to data from CBRE.
