June 2026 Fraser Valley and Greater Vancouver Market Updates

Fraser Valley Real Estate Market

Fraser Valley is becoming more affordable — but buyers are still holding back

Home prices in the Fraser Valley continued to become more affordable in June, with Benchmark prices now sitting 26 per cent below their 2022 peak. Prices edged down another 0.9 per cent during the month, reinforcing buyer-friendly conditions despite a sluggish market.

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 1,147 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in June, a two per cent increase from May, but four per cent below the same month last year. After pulling back in May, seller activity levelled off in June, with 3,303 new listings—virtually unchanged from May—but still nine per cent below last year's pace.

“The Fraser Valley spring market has underperformed expectations despite improving affordability and more choice for buyers,” said Ishaq Ismail, Chair of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board. “Opportunities are clearly there. The question is whether qualified buyers on the sidelines recognize the value available today. For those looking to enter the market or move up, current conditions present a compelling opportunity.”

The Fraser Valley enters the summer market with 10,377 active listings, maintaining a level of supply that continues to keep competition in check and create favourable conditions for buyers.

With a sales-to-active listings ratio of 11 per cent in June, the Fraser Valley remains in buyer’s market territory. A balanced market is typically defined by a ratio between 12 and 20 per cent.

“Buyers are still holding back despite some improving conditions,” said Baldev Gill, CEO of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board. “The recent agreement between Build Canada Homes and BC Housing may help add supply and improve access to ownership, however, with details still unclear it’s difficult to assess the practical impact for buyers.”

Across the Fraser Valley in June, the average number of days to sell a single-family detached home was 37 days, while for a townhome, it was 33 days. Condos took, on average, 38 days to sell.

The composite Benchmark price for a typical Fraser Valley home declined seven per cent year-over-year to $884,800.

Greater Vancouver Real Estate Market

Greater Vancouver home sales pick up at the start of summer

Demand for all home types in Metro Vancouver increased to start the summer, with home sales up nearly ten per cent year-over-year in June.

The Greater Vancouver REALTORS® (GVR) reports that residential sales in the region totalled 2,390 in June 2026, a 9.6 per cent increase from the 2,181 sales recorded in June 2025. This was 12.4 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,728).

“June saw a pattern of broad gains in home sales across all home types relative to the same time last year, which has been a rare occurrence in recent years,” said Andrew Lis, GVR chief economist and vice-president data analytics. “June’s data could be an early sign of a shift in the market. In recent years, sales trends have usually been mixed across home types, which is typical of a sideways trending market. But with all housing types posting gains in June, the data indicate demand may be returning to the market more broadly.”

There were 5,938 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in June 2026. This represents a six per cent decrease compared to the 6,315 properties listed in June 2025. This was 5.9 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average (5,609).

The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 17,017, a 3.1 per cent decrease compared to June 2025 (17,561). This is 30.2 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average (13,070).

Across all detached, attached and apartment property types, the sales-to-active listings ratio for June 2026 is 14.6 per cent. By property type, the ratio is 12 per cent for detached homes, 17.8 per cent for attached, and 15.5 per cent for apartments.

Analysis of the historical data suggests downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below 12 per cent for a sustained period, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it surpasses 20 per cent over several months.

“Despite signs that demand is slowly returning to the market, prices haven’t moved much in recent months as the inventory of homes for sale has been big enough to absorb the increased demand,” Lis said. “Prices typically trend upwards when demand rises and inventory declines. With recent data revealing a slower pace of new listings coming to market, standing inventory is no longer climbing, and may be showing early signs of reversing. It’s still too early to call, but if the current pattern of rising demand and slower new listings continues, we may see a sustained downtrend in inventory over the coming months.”

The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $1,099,100. This represents a 6 per cent decrease over June 2025 and a 0.1 per cent decrease compared to May 2026.

Sales of detached homes in June 2026 reached 747, a 13.7 per cent increase from the 657 detached sales recorded in June 2025. The benchmark price for a detached home is $1,842,900. This represents a 7.1 per cent decrease from June 2025 and a 0.3 per cent decrease compared to May 2026.

Sales of apartment homes reached 1,103 in June 2026, a 6.1 per cent increase compared to the 1,040 sales in June 2025. The benchmark price of an apartment home is $695,200. This represents a 7.1 per cent decrease from June 2025 and a 0.4 per cent decrease compared to May 2026.

Attached home sales in June 2026 totalled 527, a 11.4 per cent increase compared to the 473 sales in June 2025. The benchmark price of a townhouse is $1,046,200. This represents a 5 per cent decrease from June 2025 and a 0.2 per cent decrease compared to May 2026.
