Home sale activity improves but remains below historical averages
VANCOUVER, B.C. – April 3, 2013 – Lower levels of both supply and demand in recent
months are holding home prices in check in the Greater Vancouver housing market.
The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential property sales in
Greater Vancouver reached 2,347 on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in March 2013.
This represents an 18.3 per cent decrease compared to the 2,874 sales recorded in March 2012,
and a 30.6 per cent increase compared to the 1,797 sales in February 2013.
Last month’s sales were the second lowest March total in the region since 2001 and 30.2 per cent
below the 10-year sales average for the month.
“While home sales were below what’s typical for March, we are seeing more balance between
the number of sales and listings on the market in the last two months, which is having a
stabilizing impact on home prices,” Sandra Wyant, REBGV president said.
The sales-to-active-listings ratio currently sits at 15.2 per cent in Greater Vancouver, a three per
cent increase from last month. This is the first time this ratio has been above 15 per cent since
May 2012.
New listings for detached, attached and apartment properties in Greater Vancouver totalled 4,839
in March. This represents a 17.2 per cent decline compared to the 5,843 new listings reported in
March 2012 and a 0.1 per cent increase from the 4,833 new listings in February of this year. Last
month’s new listing count was 14.4 per cent below the region’s 10-year new listing average for
the month.
The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS® in Greater Vancouver is
15,460, a 1.5 per cent increase compared to March 2012 and a 4.5 per cent increase compared to
February 2013.
The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in
Greater Vancouver is currently $593,100. This represents a decline of 3.9 per cent compared to
this time last year and an increase of 0.9 per cent compared to January 2013.
Sales of detached properties reached 933 in March 2013, a decrease of 21.1 per cent from the

500 sales in March 2012, and a 34.8 per cent decrease from the 663 attached properties sold in
March 2011. The benchmark price of an attached unit decreased 2.5 per cent between March
2012 and 2013 to $454,300.
April 1 marked the return of the GST and PST tax structure in the province. From a real estate
