Certainly, we\u2019re seeing strength on the land side and we don\u2019t expect that to slow,\u201d Matthew Boukall, Senior Director, Residential Products at Altus Group tells BuzzBuzzNews.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Boukall says consumer confidence is driving commercial activity in Metro Vancouver, with local, national and international buyers entering the market this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Residential and industrial commercial investment (ICI) transactions dominated the commercial market last quarter, accounting for 72% of the overall capital flows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to Boukall, last year Metro Vancouver\u2019s commercial market was driven by massive land transactions, but this year the market saw more average-sized deals between $25 million to $75 million.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He adds that the strength of Metro Vancouver\u2019s commercial market is directly correlated to the region\u2019s skyrocketing residential housing market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhat we\u2019re seeing is high land prices driving up commercial land values. So, the ICI deals are seeing large volume because they\u2019re being impacted by the fact that condo developers are also paying high pricing for residential land,\u201d says Boukall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Q3 2017, residential development accounted for over half of commercial sales activity, as developers bought land to bring more supply to the housing market, says Boukall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He adds that many of these residential transactions occurred in Burnaby and Coquitlam.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After a strong first half of the year, office and retail investment slowed last quarter but year-to-date are ahead of 2016 by 78% and 61%, respectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As for next year, Boukall says dollar volume growth is expected to ease in 2018 compared to the last three years. However, he adds that 2018 could be another record year for Metro Vancouver\u2019s commercial market, as the strong pace is expected to continue.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/news.buzzbuzzhome.com\/2017\/12\/metro-vancouvers-commercial-sales-record-2017-altus-group.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Altus Group : Metro Vancouver&#8217;s Commercial Real Estate Sales Set to Hit A Record in 2017<\/a> by Kerrisa Wilson | Buzz Buzz Home<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the first three quarters of 2017, Metro Vancouver\u2019s commercial real estate sales recorded the strongest nine month period on record, and this pace is expected to continue into the &hellip;
