🧡 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
September 30, 2026

Today, we pause to honour the Survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never returned home, and reflect on the lasting impact of residential schools on Indigenous communities, families, and generations.

September 30 is a day to listen, learn, remember, and commit to reconciliation.

🧡 Every Child Matters.

May we continue to build understanding, respect, and meaningful relationships through education, reflection, and action.

Investor Tip: Track Your Numbers

Real estate investing in Vancouver is about more than watching property values—it’s about understanding the numbers behind the property. Track rental income, operating expenses, financing costs, and vacancy rates regularly so you know whether an investment is actually performing as expected, rather than relying on appreciation alone.

That discipline is especially important in today’s Vancouver rental market, where CMHC reports that asking rents have been easing as new supply increases and competition grows, with Vancouver’s 2025 apartment vacancy rate at 3.7%. For investors, realistic vacancy assumptions and a clear view of cash flow can make the difference between an investment that looks attractive on paper and one that continues to make sense over the long term.

Realty Tips: The most overlooked factor when buying

A beautiful home can still be the wrong fit if the neighbourhood doesn’t work for your everyday life. Before buying in Vancouver, spend time at the property at different hours and consider noise levels, traffic, walkability, nearby amenities, and the overall community feel—not just what you see during a weekend showing.

Future development deserves attention too. Vancouver’s new Official Development Plan will guide how neighbourhoods evolve over the coming decades, while areas such as the Broadway and Cambie corridors are already planned for significant growth in housing, transportation, amenities, and employment. For buyers and investors alike, understanding what a neighbourhood looks like **today—and what it may look like tomorrow—**can be just as important as evaluating the home itself.

Friday Quotes: Happiness is homemade.

In Vancouver’s evolving housing market, a home is about more than square footage or a purchase price—it’s about creating the setting for everyday life. Whether you’re a first-time buyer looking for a place to put down roots, a move-up seller seeking more room, or an investor considering long-term value, the right property should align with how you actually want to live and use the space.

That perspective is especially relevant in today’s market, where buyers have more selection and time to evaluate their options. Greater Vancouver REALTORS reported 15,798 active listings in August 2026, 26.2% above the 10-year seasonal average, while the composite benchmark price was $1,081,900. In a market like this, thoughtful decisions can focus not only on price, but also on location, functionality, lifestyle, and the long-term role a home can play.

Smart Buyers Stay Ready

Fall can bring a more measured pace to Metro Vancouver’s housing market, but that doesn’t mean opportunities disappear. Smart buyers stay active, track neighbourhood-level pricing and inventory, and know their numbers so they can recognize genuine value when the right property comes along.

For first-time and move-up buyers, patience can be an advantage—but only when paired with preparation. In a market where conditions can vary significantly by property type and neighbourhood, the goal isn’t simply to wait for prices to fall; it’s to be ready to act when the right home offers the right combination of price, location and long-term value.

Rental Myth: Tenants Don’t Stay Long-Term

Not every tenant is looking for a short-term rental—many Vancouver families and working professionals value stability, convenience and a place they can call home for several years. For landlords, choosing a property in the right location with practical features can help attract and retain quality long-term tenants.

Longer tenancies can mean fewer vacancies, lower turnover costs and more predictable rental income. For Metro Vancouver investors, thinking beyond the monthly rent and considering who the property is likely to attract can be an important part of building a resilient rental strategy.

Prepare Your Rental for Fall

As cooler weather approaches Metro Vancouver, landlords should take a few preventive steps before heating systems are working harder. Service the heating system, check insulation, and seal drafts around windows and doors to improve comfort and help manage energy costs.

A little maintenance now can help reduce the risk of costly repairs and tenant disruptions later. For Vancouver rental-property owners, preparing early is a simple way to protect the property while providing tenants with a safer, more comfortable home through the colder months.

Selling This Fall? Start Here.

If you’re considering selling your Vancouver home this fall, start with the details buyers notice first: declutter, deep clean, brighten darker spaces, and improve curb appeal. These relatively simple improvements can help your home photograph better, feel more inviting during showings, and make a stronger first impression in a competitive market.

With buyers becoming increasingly selective, presentation can make a meaningful difference in generating interest and helping your property stand out. Before investing in major renovations, focus on practical improvements that showcase your home’s best features and align with what today’s Metro Vancouver buyers are looking for.
