For September 2015, total active listings was\u00a037% \u2013 70% below the same period last year, depending on the type of home\u00a0you are interested in.<\/p>\n<p>All homes types continue to see strong demand, with total sales volume ranging from 15% \u2013 70%\u00a0over the same period last year, depending on home type.<\/p>\n<p>With the limited number of homes available (compared to seasonal averages) and new listings not keeping pace with demand, pricing continues its march upward across all\u00a0home types. Price increase have ranged\u00a0from\u00a06% \u2013 18% from the same period last year. Sale prices for detached homes have lead all categories at an increase of 18% from the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>With a continued low interest rate environment, high levels of consumer confidence in future employment security and high rates for rental homes, Buyers are moving into the market in force.<\/p>\n<p>As a Buyer,\u00a0to be successful in purchasing a home, you will need a purchase strategy that takes into account current market conditions as well as a thorough\u00a0understanding of price trends. For Buyers who\u00a0are not finding the right home in the resale market, you may want to look toward the presale market with numerous opportunities to purchase across\u00a0North Vancouver in areas including Lower Lonsdale, Lynn Valley, Mt Seymour and along Marine Dr.<\/p>\n<p>As a Seller, now is a great time to list your home for sale. Across all home types, there is a significant lack of available homes for sale and consistent amount of demand in the market. Your open houses will be busy and with an effective marketing strategy, for detached homes and towhomes, it is not unlikely you will see multiple offers. Do not be afraid of pushing your list prices above market comparables, especially for detached homes and townhomes.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in buying or selling a home in the near future, lets grab a coffee and talk about your plans. A thorough understanding of the market is the first step in putting together an effective strategy to buy or sell.<\/p>\n<p>I can be reached at 778-881-0673 or by email at
