• In Vancouver, Square Footage Isn’t the Only Kind of Space

    In Vancouver, the idea of 'space' goes beyond just square footage. Here, living close to the coastline or having North Shore mountain views can be just as valuable as an extra room or a bigger yard. Many homes in our city are only minutes from the water or those stunning peaks, and on clear September days, you can spot the mountains right from downtown streets. For many buyers, choosing a larger home farther out means trading away these incredible daily views. As someone who helps clients navigate these choices every day, I've seen how personal priorities shape what 'space' really means. Would you choose more indoor space, or the daily beauty of Vancouver’s views?

  • Canada Is Looking Beyond the U.S.

    Canada is opening a bigger economic door to Europe, as it looks to reduce reliance on the U.S. and build stronger international partnerships.
    The opportunity goes beyond trade: energy, AI, critical minerals and infrastructure could become major areas for cross-border investment.
    A broader network of trading partners could redirect capital, creating new opportunities for Canadian businesses, investors and infrastructure projects.
    Takeaway: Canada’s next growth story may be shaped by where it builds new economic partnerships—not just by what happens south of the border.

  • Will Vancouver Finally Rebound in 2027?

    Vancouver has long been known for its challenging housing affordability, and even with some recent improvements, it remains one of the toughest markets in Canada. As we look ahead to 2027, the landscape is shifting: B.C. housing is seeing weaker demand and an increase in available listings, which continues to put pressure on the market. According to TD, there’s an expectation that B.C. prices will start to rise again in 2027, following a period of softness. Interestingly, we might see a rebound in sales activity before we notice any significant price increases. As someone focused on strategic home sales and precise pricing, I know how important it is to navigate these cycles with a plan tailored to your goals. Staying informed and adapting to these market trends is key to making smart real estate decisions across Greater Vancouver.

  • Vancouver Housing Stays Globally Desirable

    Vancouver continues to capture global attention, ranking 24th out of 1,000 cities worldwide—a testament to our city’s strong economy and deep pool of local talent. Yet, even as Vancouver remains one of the most desirable places to live, affordability challenges persist. The latest housing affordability study places Vancouver’s median multiple near 11, keeping us among the least affordable major markets across the globe. For many, this means a significant portion of income goes toward housing—an issue that defines our local real estate experience. As a Delta BC realtor serving the Greater Vancouver area, I see firsthand how factors like limited supply and slower housing starts through 2026 continue to shape our market. Navigating these realities takes a blend of strategic pricing, local insight, and modern marketing. Vancouver’s appeal is undeniable—so is the importance of making informed choices in this unique housing landscape.

  • Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley Sales Soften

    As we move through mid-Q3, we’re seeing Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley experience a softer residential sales pace—1,900 sales, which wraps up summer 2026 on a quieter note and lands below earlier yearly forecasts. The composite benchmark price now stands at $1.08M, showing a month-over-month dip from early Q3 as more buyer-friendly conditions emerge across the market. With active inventory at 15,800 properties, buyers are enjoying more options and sellers are working harder to stand out in a competitive landscape. Detached homes have led the way in price corrections, now at a benchmark of $1.8M, while apartments are at $686K and attached homes at $1.03M. The sales-to-active listings ratio sits around 12%, firmly indicating a buyer’s market—meaning more choices and greater room for negotiation. In times like these, a strategic approach to home sales and precise pricing can make all the difference. My focus is always on tailoring the process to your goals, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

  • Vancouver Homebuyers Benefit from Easing Prices

    Vancouver Homebuyers Benefit from Easing Prices

    Even with recent shifts in Vancouver’s housing market—like a $10,300 dip in home prices and slightly lower mortgage rates—home ownership here still demands significant resources. The income needed to purchase a typical home has dropped by $2,540, and monthly payments are down by $70, but the required annual income stands at $223,860. That’s still a huge gap from the median salary of $69,000. Navigating these numbers takes more than luck; it calls for smart strategy, careful pricing, and a clear understanding of the market’s nuances—approaches I bring to every client’s journey across Greater Vancouver.

  • Fall 2026 Housing Supply Report

    Fall 2026 Housing Supply Report

    As we look ahead to Fall 2026, the housing supply gap remains a serious concern in most Canadian cities—with Calgary and Edmonton as notable exceptions. We're seeing construction activity slow down at a pace that outstrips the decrease in demand, which continues to put pressure on affordability. While most of the new homes coming to market are rentals, limited condo development is making it harder for buyers to secure ownership opportunities. For those navigating Greater Vancouver’s real estate landscape, understanding these supply constraints is key to making informed decisions. Increased housing starts and stronger infrastructure investment will be critical as we work toward a more balanced market.
