However, the total sales volume (5,481 units) was the highest Zonda Urban has ever recorded during a third quarter \u2014 exceeding the five-year and 10-year average by 48% \u2014 and an 82% increase year-over-year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fueled by a flurry of transactions during the first two quarters, Metro Vancouver has posted its highest year-to-date sales totals in the past decade, with 18,636 new condominium and townhome sales recorded by the end of the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Those scorching sales figures, combined with less product entering the market, have swallowed up supply. There were 930 fewer unsold units available to purchase at the end of the third quarter than the previous quarter\u2019s close. Adding to the supply issue, there were 25 fewer projects launched during the third quarter than the second quarter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe lower supply levels have put increased pressure on pricing for all product types across the market,\u201d the report stated, noting townhome prices increased by 10% during the third quarter while condominium prices rose approximately 1%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhile there are other economic factors affecting prices, the ongoing strong levels of demand relative to insufficient new supply has been the greatest influence on pricing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Condominium sales accounted for 83% of all new multi-family home transactions. Townhome projects lagged behind, with a 27% drop in sales attributed to higher prices discouraging some buyers, as well as approval delays preventing new projects from replenishing the supply of available product.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Surrey\/North Delta sub-market saw the bulk of sales activity, accounting for 27% of the region\u2019s sales total with nearly 1,500 units sold, 7% fewer than the second quarter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nine new project launches in the sub-market \u2014 including Surrey developments The Grand on King George by Allure Ventures and Quinn by Porte Homes \u2014 helped drive transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">South of Fraser sub-markets saw a 15% drop from the previous quarter. However, third quarter sales totals were 82% higher than the next highest third quarter tally since 2011, reflecting growing demand that continues to narrow price gaps between areas north and south of the Fraser River.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Looking ahead, Zonda anticipates that supply chain disruptions, inflation concerns and rising interest rates will increase costs for both developers and buyers, contributing to the supply crunch and driving prices higher moving forward.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWith inflation making the cost to bring new product to market ever-higher, thereby requiring higher sale prices, and the prospect of higher borrowing costs reducing purchasers\u2019 buying power, Zonda Urban expects the supply of new product to remain limited or fall further,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cGiven the seeming unlikelihood that any significant measures or policy changes meant to increase the supply of both for-sale and rental product will be implemented in the short-term, investors anticipate supply pressures and therefore, price appreciation will continue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2021\/11\/fatigue-supply-slow-vancouver-multi-family-sales.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buyer Fatigue, Reduced Supply Slow Vancouver Multi-Family Sales<\/a> by Ryan Garner | Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After sales activity surged earlier this year, Metro Vancouver\u2019s new multi-family transactions slowed during the third quarter due to a combination of buyer fatigue and fewer new project launches.
