Greater Vancouver February 2025:

In February, 51% of detached homes in Greater Vancouver lost value. The average price for single-family homes dropped by $4,022, reversing the $7,510 increase from January.

The Chinese New Year (January 29th) often leads to a boost in buying activity. This year, money did come in, but not as much as in previous years.

On one hand, buyers are encouraged by recent drops in interest rates. However, there’s also some uncertainty as we wait for the Federal election, which could give the new government more power to negotiate with the U.S. on tariffs.

Even with these factors, the Metro Vancouver market is expected to stay stable.

Condo and townhouse prices are also dropping, with averages of $1,331 and $3,677, respectively. These markets are expected to remain steady until late spring.

Fraser Valley February 2025:

In February, 67% of detached homes in Fraser Valley saw a small drop in value. The average price for single-family homes fell by $5,136, reversing the $1,565 increase from January.

The Chinese New Year (January 29th) usually leads to a rise in buying activity. This year, money did come in, but not as much as in previous years. The Fraser Valley benefits when Vancouver is busy, as some buyers move outward.

On one hand, buyers are encouraged by recent drops in interest rates. However, there is some uncertainty as we wait for the results of the Federal election, which could give the new government more power to negotiate upcoming American tariffs.

Even with these factors, the Fraser Valley detached market is expected to stay stable.
