In commentary posted to its website, Altus Group\u2019s Ryan Wyse noted that new project launches also rose during the quarter, with those newly launched projects seeing much stronger sales performances compared to the same time in 2020.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">New condo sales made up the majority of the first quarter sales total, with 4,293 transactions representing a 169 percent increase over the same period last year. There were 1,915 new single-family homes sold in the first three months of 2021, up 186 percent from a year ago.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wyse wrote that a dearth of new single-family home inventory may mean there\u2019s trouble ahead for the segment to keep up with buyer demand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cLooking ahead, demand for housing, and in particular new condominium apartments, is likely to continue and will bring elevated sales activity in 2021,\u201d wrote Wyse.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWith inventory levels dropping and the high sales rates at new openings, it is likely that the continued strength of the market will also bring a high number of new condominium apartment project launches,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/06\/vancouver-new-home-sales-soar-2021.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vancouver Region New Home Sales Soared 174% in 2021&#8217;s Early Months<\/a> by Sean MacKay | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New homebuyers kicked off 2021 with a bang, scooping up 6,208 new properties across the Vancouver region in the first quarter of the year.
