• new listings decreased by 6.7%


• the total number of listings increased by 2.2%

The stronger market in Richmond and Vancouver West must be due to the obvious increase of Asian buyers in Vancouver who predominantly prefer and buy detached homes in these two areas. For the full statistical report of the GVREB visit http://www.vancouver-condos.net and go to market trends.
