FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Home buyer demand outpacing supply across the Metro

Vancouver housing market
VANCOUVER, B.C. May 4, 2015 Strong home buyer demand coupled with below average
home listing activity has created seller's market conditions within the Metro Vancouver* housing
market.
The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential property sales in
Metro Vancouver reached 4,179 on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in April 2015. This
represents a 37 per cent increase compared to the 3,050 sales recorded in April 2014, and a 2.9
per cent increase compared to the 4,060 sales in March 2015.
Last months sales were 29.3 per cent above the 10-year sales average for the month.
The supply of homes for sale today in the region is not meeting the demand we're seeing from
home buyers. This is putting upward pressure on prices, particularly in the detached home
market," Darcy McLeod, REBGV president said.
New listings for detached, attached and apartment properties in Metro Vancouver totalled 5,897
in April. This represents a 0.9 per cent decrease compared to the 5,950 new listings reported in
April 2014.
The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the regions MLS is 12,436, a 19.8
per cent decline compared to April 2014 and an increase of 0.5 per cent compared to March
2015.
Its a competitive and fast-moving market today that is tilted in favour of home sellers. To be
competitive, its important to connect with a local REALTOR who can help you develop a
strategy to meet your home buying or selling needs, McLeod said.
The MLS Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro
Vancouver is currently $673,000. This represents an 8.5 per cent increase compared to April
2014.
The sales-to-active-listings ratio in April was 33.6 per cent. This is the highest that this ratio has
been in Metro Vancouver since June 2007.

Sales of detached properties in April 2015 reached 1,815, an increase of 35.9 per cent from the
1,336 detached sales recorded in April 2014, and a 70.6 per cent increase from the 1,064 units
sold in April 2013. The benchmark price for a detached property in Metro Vancouver increased
12.5 per cent from April 2014 to $1,078,900.
Sales of apartment properties reached 1,579 in April 2015, an increase of 34.7 per cent compared
to the 1,172 sales in April 2014, and an increase of 50.1 per cent compared to the 1,052 sales in
April 2013. The benchmark price of an apartment property increased 4.4 per cent from April
2014 to $394,200.
Attached property sales in April 2015 totalled 785, an increase of 44.8 per cent compared to the
542 sales in April 2014, and a 53.6 per cent increase from the 511 attached properties sold in
April 2013. The benchmark price of an attached unit increased 5.7 per cent between April 2014
and 2015 to $493,300.
