Several straight monthly gains: is Canada's market turning?
Canada’s housing market continues to show momentum, with July marking the fourth consecutive month of rising home sales. As a REALTOR® rooted in Richmond and dedicated to helping clients navigate BC’s dynamic real estate landscape, I’m always watching these trends closely. In July, the national average sale price edged up 0.2% to $674,819, while new listings slipped by 1.6%. Inventory is now at 4.7 months—signaling a market that’s finding its balance. For those considering buying or selling, these numbers remind us how important it is to have a tailored strategy. Every client’s goals are unique, and my role is to ensure you have the insight and guidance to make confident decisions, whether you’re a first-time buyer, an investor, or ready for a change.

Why I’d Be Excited To Buy In Vancouver Right Now | I am never too busy for your referrals.
As someone who’s spent a lifetime in Richmond and has seen the ebb and flow of our local markets firsthand, I find Vancouver’s current real estate landscape especially intriguing. Sales are picking up momentum—it's a clear sign that more buyers are feeling comfortable making moves again. Right now, we’re in a rare window where you can shop carefully, weighing your options without facing the high-pressure bids we’ve seen in Vancouver’s peak periods. Royal LePage is projecting a 3.5% year-over-year price decrease in Greater Vancouver for Q4 2026, which could give buyers a little more room to negotiate and find their ideal fit. These shifts—more choice, renewed activity, and some price flexibility—are the kind of opportunities I always look out for when guiding clients, whether they’re first-time buyers or looking to expand their investment portfolio. If you’re watching the market and weighing your next step, it’s worth keeping a close eye on what’s unfolding in Vancouver.

Rate cuts boost housing demand faster than supply, BoC research finds
As someone who’s witnessed the ups and downs of Richmond’s real estate landscape, I keep a close eye on how Bank of Canada rate changes ripple through our market. Recent research confirms what many of us see on the ground: when rates drop, home sales surge almost immediately—well before new housing construction can catch up. This quick spike in demand, especially with unemployment staying low, tends to drive prices up and puts even more pressure on affordability. For buyers and sellers alike, it’s a reminder that the market moves quickly and demand can outpace supply in a blink. That’s why, when working with clients—whether first-time buyers or seasoned investors—I focus not only on timing, but on strategic planning and understanding the bigger economic picture. While monetary policy sets the pace, it’s clear that long-term solutions for housing imbalances may require a stronger focus on increasing supply. My role is to guide you with insights and a plan tailored to your needs, so you feel confident at every step.

Canada’s Affordability Streak Hits 10 Quarters | I am never too busy for your referrals.
Affordability remains a major talking point across Canada, with ten consecutive quarters highlighting just how challenging it’s been for buyers to catch a break. As a REALTOR® who’s seen the ups and downs in Richmond and throughout BC, I know that the old hope—mortgage rate drops making things easier—just isn’t on the horizon this year. Instead, economists are shifting their focus to what really drives the market now: home prices and income growth.

Forecasts suggest mortgage rates will likely hold steady or even climb a bit, so any improvement in affordability will depend more on prices stabilizing and incomes rising. Slower population growth may ease some pressure on housing demand, possibly helping to keep prices in check. At the same time, a stronger labour market should help boost household incomes, but without meaningful moderation in home prices, the path to greater affordability could remain narrow.

What I’m hearing from clients echoes what’s happening nationwide—every market is unique. Richmond’s dynamics aren’t the same as Vancouver or Toronto, and buyers and sellers in Calgary or Edmonton face a different reality altogether. My approach is always to listen first and guide with care, making sure you have the insights to move forward confidently—because real estate is never one-size-fits-all.

Slowly but surely Canada's housing market is turning around
As someone who’s spent a lifetime in Richmond and years immersed in BC’s ever-evolving real estate landscape, I’m always tuned in to the subtle shifts in our market. Right now, we’re seeing encouraging signs of renewal: Canadian home resales have climbed for four consecutive months, and prices have ticked up for two. While overall inventory is holding steady and new listings are tapering off, it’s important to note that market activity remains 12% below the 10-year average—reminding us that the recovery isn’t happening at the same pace everywhere. Every region tells its own story. For my clients, this means staying strategic, informed, and ready to move when the right opportunity appears. With the right plan and a clear understanding of the local market, your next real estate step can feel a lot more certain.

Vancouver Starts Seen Sliding Through 2028 | I am never too busy for your referrals.
As someone who’s spent decades navigating the twists and turns of Metro Vancouver’s real estate landscape, I always keep a close eye on the numbers shaping our future. The latest projections for housing starts in Metro Vancouver show a noticeable slowdown: 26,000–27,000 starts expected in 2026, falling to 21,900–25,100 in 2027, and dipping further to 20,500–22,000 by 2028. We’re looking at a multi-year reset in supply, with condo construction at historic lows and no turnaround for new builds likely before 2028.

For those tracking the resale market, forecasts suggest sales could reach 28,000–28,800 in 2026, with a partial recovery to 29,800–32,200 in 2027—potentially signaling a shift before new construction rebounds. Average home prices for 2026 are expected to hover around $1.16M, with a slight alternative scenario at $1.15M. Meanwhile, even as new rental supply comes online, vacancy rates are tightening toward the mid-3% range.

With factors like slower population growth, economic uncertainty, higher mortgage rates, and weaker income growth, demand may be held back even as affordability inches forward. My approach has always been to listen first and guide with care—especially in times like these, when strategic planning and community insight are more important than ever. If you’re wondering how these trends could shape your next move in Richmond or across Metro Vancouver, I’m here to help you make sense of it all.

Inflation climbs, home sales rise: what it all means for Canadian borrowers
With Canada’s inflation climbing to 3%—largely driven by higher oil prices—it’s understandable that many Richmond homeowners and buyers are keeping a close eye on interest rates. The good news? Experts expect rates to hold steady for now. At the same time, we’re seeing home sales and prices on the rise, fuelled in part by optimism around a possible US-Canada trade deal and easing tariff concerns.

As someone who’s guided clients through every twist and turn of BC’s real estate landscape, I know how quickly these market shifts can impact your plans and peace of mind. Whether you’re considering your first purchase, looking to invest, or weighing a move, it’s more important than ever to have clear, strategic advice tailored to your goals. My commitment—always—is to listen first and deliver results, so you can navigate these changes with confidence.

Canada Data Week Sharpens Housing Outlook | I am never too busy for your referrals.
This week brought a whirlwind of updates shaping Canada’s housing outlook—something I watch closely as a REALTOR® who calls Richmond home. We saw new data on inflation, housing, and trade, with a major tariff deadline on the horizon that could impact nearly US$20B of Canadian exports if negotiations stall. For anyone planning their next move, these numbers matter: Early-Q3 inflation and home sales are fueling debate on whether the Bank of Canada might hike rates again or hold steady all the way through 2027. It’s worth noting that a leading real estate group just adjusted its 2026 forecast, now anticipating national sales will slip this year rather than rise as previously thought. Meanwhile, fresh reports on housing starts, retail sales, lending, and business activity are offering more clarity on where construction and consumer momentum stand. As always, I’m here to help you make sense of these shifts—translating market changes into strategic decisions, whether you’re buying, selling, or investing. Listening first, guiding with care, and always staying a few steps ahead is how I help clients thrive, even when the market keeps us guessing.
