East Vancouver Real Estate Market Update: July 2015!

Share Article

It’s officially summer, but the East Van Real Estate market is still in full swing. The sales to active ratio across every market in East Van is a strong 51%, which is a huge increase over the 28% we saw in June 2014. The inventory numbers are also interesting: last month saw an average of 910 properties for sale, whereas June 2014 saw an average of 1,311 properties for sale. With 30% fewer properties listed for sale right now, Buyers are fighting for the first good property they see and we’ve seen that in the high number of multiple offer situations we’re involved in every week, for all different types of properties. You need to be really prepared in a multiple offer situation by doing as much due diligence as possible (sometimes that means doing the inspection before the offer), reading through the strata docs beforehand and coming in with a strong price.
