The market has split into two!!

The speculative buyer has largely stepped aside.

The end-user is coming back.

That’s the biggest takeaway from the June market, and THAT is why it’s complicated.

Yes, Metro Vancouver sales were down 4% year-over-year.

But the headline doesn’t tell the whole story.

🏡 Detached homes are stabilizing.

🏘️ Townhomes continue to hold up well.

🏙️ Investor-oriented condos continue to face the most pressure.

A renovated two-bedroom in Mount Pleasant isn’t competing with a dozen identical investor condos in the suburbs.

Quality matters.

Location matters.

Livability matters.

Broad market averages no longer tell the whole story.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, your strategy should depend on what you own—not just what the headlines say.

Under $550,000 - Renovated unit in a rain-screened building in East Van? These opportunities are hard to find!

This beautifully renovated corner suite is bright, stylish, and move-in ready. The kitchen was reimagined with an open layout, breakfast bar, updated cabinetry, backsplash and shelving, while the bathroom has been fully renovated. Custom touches include a driftwood mantel, new gas fireplace, updated lighting, solid wood doors, and in-suite laundry.

Just a short walk to all the shops that makes Hastings-Sunrise one of East Van’s most loved neighbourhoods.

Cypress and 1st, one of the best intersections in the city, and I think this is one of the best listing in Kits right now.

A downsizers dream. 

This 2-bed, 2-bath is fully renovated with beautiful oak floors, custom tiling and high-end appliances. This home is super spacious, well laid out, and west-facing with tons of light. The building, Yorkville South is just completing a huge building envelope remediation project, giving it a new lease on life. It’s freehold, don’t worry. 

It is also a concrete and steel framed building, very rare north of 4th!

The Vancouver market is splitting in two.

Detached home sales:
⬆️ UP 14%

Condo sales:
⬇️ DOWN 11%

Why?

Supply and demand.

There’s limited supply of detached homes for actual families.

There’s a large supply of condos once supported by investors — a buyer group that has largely disappeared.

The result:

Detached homes are stabilizing.

Condos are still finding their new value.

2015 to 2022 made everyone looked smart. Now we are seeing who actually is.

05/01/2026

Homes are worth a range, and one of the main strategies to get the top of the range is HOME PREPARATION 💵

How your home looks, and how buyers feel when they view a home, greatly impacts sale price!

It’s critical to have a great strategy and a great team to get this done.

You are leaving money in the table otherwise!

A couple things:

Charles Street near Commercial is one of the most beautiful pockets in the city right now—the cherry blossoms and classic homes…looks unreal!

Secondly, the entry-level family market is tight. Not enough 3-bed homes between $1.3-$1.8m. That’s the real shortage.

Fix is simple: more duplex density and faster permitting.

Rents soften. Most segments soften. Entry level 3 bedroom homes likely won’t.

The key to this market isn’t guessing—it’s understanding the drivers!

April 2025 Vancouver RE, Market Update

March Sales ↓ 32% vs 10-year avg

Detached ↓ 8.2% YoY
Condos ↓ 7.8% YoY

The bubble is unwinding.

The last 10 years?
You’re either sitting pretty…
or bleeding monthly.

This video breaks down what caused it—and what’s changed.

Now?
This is a user-driven market.

👉 Good properties → stabilizing
👉 Speculative product → still falling

The gap is widening.

Opportunities—and mistakes—are getting bigger.

Be strategic. Call me if you want to build equity, security.

I grew up on the North Shore and still spend a lot of time over there between family, friends and real estate.

I love it, but I haven’t felt ready to move back there yet…until very recently.

I’ve helped some clients land some amazing detached properties; and they’ve felt like really good value. Great prices for super unique, beautiful homes.

Ready to make babies and move to the North Shore? LMK 😎
