A Near Record Month of November

This past week saw the Vancouver real market slow substantially. New Listings and Sales both fell significantly while there was also a slight decrease in the Active Listings. Much of the decrease, I believe can be attributed to the fact that Rememberance Day fell in the middle of the week.

Upward Pressure Continues
October 2009 ended up being another stellar month in the Vancouver real estate market. We’ve become accustomed to seeing strong results this year, and October was no exception. Demand remained strong while supply shrank and the result was that prices were pushed higher.
