Vancouver Housing Market Slows.

Fundamentals Remain Strong

Figures published by the Real Estate Board Of Greater Vancouver, show July sales statistics have slowed when compared to July '05. (see attached Adobe Stats Pkg.) Last year was somewhat abnormal when compared to previous years, however, with interest rates continuing to remain attractive and low inventory levels, demand will continue to drive sales. Affordabilty is always a concern, as recently stated by Cameron Muir, Senior Economist with CMHC.

Richmond BC continues to be a favourite for many of todays first time buyers and young families, eager to snap up their first new Condominium or Town Home. With the new Canada Line now fully under way, Richmond residents will soon have access to rapid transit to downtown Vancouver, International Airport and beyond.
