The month ended with a total active inventory of 6,474, a 4.7% increase compared to May, and 18.3% more than June 2021.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Baldev Gill, Chief Executive Officer of the Board, added, \u201cWith five-year fixed rates at their highest levels in a decade and residential prices, though softening month-over-month, are still more than 20% higher than a year ago, we expect to see sales continue to decline over the near term.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe combination of higher rates and low inventory will present a barrier to first-time buyers and could result in even slower sales over the coming months and erase price gains from the past 10 months or so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Across Fraser Valley, in June, the average number of days to sell a single-family detached home was 21 and a townhome was 19 days.
