   Why Are Apartment Sales COLLAPSING in Metro Vancouver? | October 2026 Market Update

   Metro Vancouver Real Estate Market Update – September 2026 The September numbers are in, and there’s more to the story than the headline suggests. Metro Vancouver recorded 1,717 home sales in September, down 8.4% from last year and about 25% below the 10-year seasonal average. But the biggest reason for the decline? Apartments. Apartment sales fell nearly 19% year-over-year, while detached home sales actually increased 4.2% and townhouse sales were essentially flat. So what does that tell us? The market continues to be driven primarily by end-users, while investors appear to be sitting on the sidelines waiting for better conditions. At the same time, inventory remains elevated, giving buyers more choice and keeping pressure on prices. The benchmark price for Metro Vancouver is now $1,075,900, down 5.5% from September 2025 and 0.6% from August. All three major property types have now seen prices decline roughly 3% since the beginning of the year. In this month's update, we break down: • Why apartments are dragging down overall sales • Why detached homes and townhouses are holding up better • What elevated inventory means for buyers and sellers • Where prices are heading • What the sales-to-active-listings ratio tells us about the market • And, most importantly, what all of this means if you're thinking about buying or selling As always, the goal isn't to sensationalize the market — it's to understand what's actually happening beneath the headlines. Watch the full video to see where the Metro Vancouver market is heading next.

   September 2026 Vancouver Real Estate Market Update: Is the Market at a Crossroads?

   Vancouver Real Estate Market Update: Is the Market at a Crossroads? The August Metro Vancouver real estate numbers are in—and as we head into fall, the market feels like it's at a crossroads. Sales continue to run below historical averages, prices have moved lower, and buyers have more choice than they've had in quite some time. But they're still waiting. In August, Metro Vancouver recorded 1,869 sales, down 4.6% from August 2025 and a significant 20.7% below the 10-year average. The benchmark price is now $1,081,900, down 5.6% from last year, while 15,798 properties are currently listed for sale—well above the long-term average. So what does it all mean? Are buyers waiting for prices to fall further? Are sellers finally adjusting their expectations? And with townhouses outperforming both detached homes and apartments, are buyers starting to change what they're looking for? In this month's market update, we'll look at the numbers, what's happening across the different property types, and the bigger question: Are we simply in a slower market—or are we approaching a turning point? Let us know what you're seeing in the market and where you think things are headed this fall.
