Meanwhile, the number of new listings was also down compared to 2020 levels, but did show an improvement from August.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Keith Stewart, REBGV\u2019s economist, explained that the summer\u2019s trend of above-average home sales, alongside historically-typical new listings activity, continued throughout Metro Vancouver during September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAlthough this is keeping the overall supply of homes for sale low, we\u2019re not seeing the same upward intensity on home prices today as we did in the spring,\u201d said Stewart in the report.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here\u2019s what we know based on the latest insights from REBGV :<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Sales drop annually and monthly in September 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last month, 3,149 residential homes were sold in Metro Vancouver. This marks a 13.6% decrease from September 2020, when 3,643 properties traded hands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From August to September, the decline in sales was much more minor. Month-to-month, the quantity of sales was down 0.1% from 3,152 transactions. Despite these losses, last month\u2019s sales were still 20.8% above the 10-year September sales average.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Detached, apartment and attached property types reported a total of 950, 1,621 and 578 sales. For detached and attached homes, this represents a 27.9% and 20.8% decrease in sales compared to September 2020 levels. However, sales for apartments were up 1.6% annually from 1,596 transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>September sees a boost in monthly home inventory<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Between detached, attached and apartment properties, 5,171 newly-listed homes came online across the Vancouver region in September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the yearly number of new properties hitting the market was down 19.2% compared to the 6,402 homes listed in September 2020, the supply of properties grew 28.2%t from August 2021, up from 4,032 residences. Last month\u2019s new listings were 1.2% below the 10-year average for September.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Home inventory still remains \u201cinsufficient\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the moment, there are 9,236 homes available for sale in Metro Vancouver.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From August to September, the total quantity of properties on the market jumped just 2.6%, up from 9,005 homes. In September 2020, there were 13,096 properties on the market, which equals a 29.5% year-to-year decrease in current supply. Compared to the 10-year average, September\u2019s inventory of listings was down 27.7%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For all property types, the sales-to-active listings ratio for September 2021 is 34.1%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stewart noted that the total inventory of homes for sale \u201cremains insufficient,\u201d to meet the demands of the current Metro Vancouver market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis scarcity limits peoples\u2019 purchasing options and ultimately adds upward pressure on home prices,\u201d said Stewart. \u201cWith the federal election now behind us, we hope to see governments at all levels work with the construction industry to streamline the creation of a more abundant and diverse supply of housing options.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Average home prices stay above $1.1 million<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In September, the MLS Home Price Index composite benchmark reached $1,186,100 for all residential properties. Compared to the same month last year, the average price is now up 13.8%, and rose just 0.8% from August.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For all three property types, benchmark prices have increased across the board. Detached, apartment and attached homes saw their average values rise 20.4%, 8.4% and 17.5% yearly to $1,828,200, $738,600 and $963,800.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/10\/demand-vancouver-outpaces-supply-september.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Demand for Vancouver Homes Outpaces New Supply in September<\/a> by Michelle McNally | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home buying and selling activity remains at a high in Metro Vancouver, while the pace of new properties hitting the market has continued to fall in line with long-term averages. &hellip;
