A Return to Fundamentals
This is a correction, not a crisis. Prices are still well above pre-pandemic levels. The current softness likely reflects a return to fundamentals, including higher rates, slower population growth, increased new unit construction, and more cautious buyers.
The resale market is still functioning. Deals are closing. Prices are adjusting. Buyers are negotiating. That’s what a healthy market looks like. Presales, on the other hand, are a different story. More cautious developers are proceeding with construction according to plan. Risk-taking developers who assumed prices would rise forever are now learning the limits of that bet. Bailing out the riskier outfits will encourage them to take risks again, at the expense of the more astute developers.
The Road Ahead
The apartment market in Greater Vancouver is likely to stay cool through 2025, and possibly into 2026. Prices may keep sliding. But affordability is improving, and more supply is coming.
In time, that may be good news for buyers and for the city.
