The composite benchmark price in Metro Vancouver came in at $1.08M, marking a slight month-over-month dip as the market continued to tip in favor of buyers.<\/p>\n<p>Inventory has climbed to 15,800 active listings, giving buyers more options and ensuring strong competition among sellers. Detached homes experienced the biggest adjustment, with a benchmark price of $1.8M, while apartments settled at $686K and attached homes at $1.03M. The sales-to-active listings ratio is now around 12%, a clear indicator of a buyers\u2019 market with plenty of selection and more room for negotiation.<\/p>\n<p>My background in both residential and commercial real estate, combined with analytical skills honed through my MBA and my commitment to informed decision-making, allows me to guide clients through evolving conditions like these.
