EASING HOME PRICES HELP LIFT SALES IN AUGUST
VANCOUVER, BC – September 2025 – Easing prices brought more Metro Vancouver* homebuyers off the sidelines in August, with home sales on the MLS® up nearly three per cent from August last year.
The Greater Vancouver REALTORS® (GVR) reports that residential sales in the region totalled 1,959 in August 2025, a 2.9 per cent increase from the 1,904 sales recorded in August 2024. This was 19.2 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,424). “The August sales figures add further confirmation that sales activity across Metro Vancouver appears to be recovering, albeit somewhat slowly, from the challenging first half of the year,” said Andrew Lis, GVR’s director of economics and data analytics. “Sales in the detached and attached segments are up over ten per cent from last August, which suggests buyers shopping in more expensive price points are re-entering the market in a meaningful way.”
There were 4,225 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in August 2025. This represents a 2.8 per cent increase compared to the 4,109 properties listed in August 2024. This was 1.3 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average (4,172).
The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 16,242, a 17.6 per cent increase compared to August 2024 (13,812). This is 36.9 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average (11,862).
