Greater Vancouver home sales pick up at the start of summer
Metro Vancouver Housing Market Summary – June 2026
Metro Vancouver home sales increased 9.6% year-over-year in June 2026, with 2,390 residential properties sold compared to 2,181 in June 2025. While sales remained 12.4% below the 10-year seasonal average, all housing types recorded year-over-year gains, indicating broader buyer demand may be returning.
New MLS® listings declined 6% to 5,938, while active listings fell 3.1% year-over-year to 17,017, although inventory remains 30.2% above the 10-year average. The overall sales-to-active listings ratio was 14.6%, reflecting balanced market conditions with stable pricing.
The benchmark price for all residential properties was $1,099,100, down 6.0% from June 2025 and 0.1% from May 2026.
By property type:
- Detached: 747 sales (+13.7% YoY); benchmark price $1,842,900 (-7.1% YoY).
- Apartments: 1,103 sales (+6.1% YoY); benchmark price $695,200 (-7.1% YoY).
- Attached/Townhomes: 527 sales (+11.4% YoY); benchmark price $1,046,200 (-5.0% YoY).
Greater Vancouver REALTORS® noted that while demand is gradually strengthening, ample inventory has kept prices relatively stable. However, slowing new listings combined with improving demand could lead to declining inventory and potential upward pressure on prices if these trends continue.
