This was 33% below the 10-year seasonal average (2,538).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe\u2019ve been watching the number of active listings in our market increase over the past few months, which is giving buyers more to choose from than they\u2019ve been used to seeing over the past few years,\u201d Andrew Lis, REBGV\u2019s director of economics and data analytics said. \u201cWhen paired with the seasonal slowdown in sales we typically see this time of year, this increase in supply is creating balanced conditions across Metro Vancouver\u2019s housing market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There were 3,369 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service\u00ae (MLS\u00ae) in Metro Vancouver in November 2023. This represents a 9.8% increase compared to the 3,069 properties listed in November 2022. This was 2.8% below the 10-year seasonal average (3,464).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS\u00ae system in Metro Vancouver is 10,931, a 13.5% increase compared to November 2022 (9,633). This is 3.7% above the 10-year seasonal average (10,543).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Across all detached, attached and apartment property types, the sales-to-active listings ratio for November 2023 is 16.3%. By property type, the ratio is 12.7% for detached homes, 19.8% for attached, and 18.2 per cent for apartments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Analysis of the historical data suggests downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below 12% for a sustained period, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it surpasses 20% over several months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cBalanced market conditions typically come with flatter price trends, and that\u2019s what we\u2019ve seen in the market since the summer months. These trends follow a period where prices rose over seven per cent earlier in the year,\u201d Lis said. \u201cYou probably won\u2019t find Cyber Monday discounts, but prices have edged lower by a few per cent since the summer. And with most economists expecting mortgage rates to fall modestly in 2024, market conditions for buyers are arguably the most favorable we\u2019ve seen in some time in our market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The MLS\u00ae Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $1,185,100. This represents a 4.9% increase over November 2022 and a 1% decrease compared to October 2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sales of detached homes in November 2023 reached 523, a 7% increase from the 489 detached sales recorded in November 2022. The benchmark price for a detached home is $1,982,600. This represents a 6.8% increase from November 2022 and a 0.9% decrease compared to October 2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sales of apartment homes reached 850 in November 2023, a 0.4% increase compared to the 847 sales in November 2022. The benchmark price of an apartment home is $762,700. This represents a 6.2% increase from November 2022 and a 1% decrease compared to October 2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Attached home sales in November 2023 totalled 316, a 12.5% increase compared to the 281 sales in November 2022. The benchmark price of a townhouse3 is $1,092,600. This represents a 6.9% increase from November 2022 and a 0.7% decrease compared to October 2023.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/members.rebgv.org\/news\/REBGV-Stats-Pkg-Nov-2023.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> to view the November 2023 stats package.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rebgv.org\/market-watch\/monthly-market-report\/november-2023.html.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Balanced Conditions Come to The Metro Vancouver Housing Market for The Holiday Season<\/a> by REBGV<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With one month left in 2023, a steady increase in housing inventory is offering home buyers across Metro Vancouver1 among the largest selection to choose from since 2021.
