Condos & Townhomes in Downtown
The condo & townhome market in downtown Vancouver saw no increase or decrease in sales in October, instead repeating September’s 127 sales. The changes mostly come from reductions in the Sale to List Price Ratio (-2%) and a 2% reduction in the average sale price.
The most active price band in downtown Vancouver is for condos & townhomes priced $500,000 to $800,000. The volume of sales in this price range makes up almost 50% of total sales. That is huge. Another price band of note is for properties ranging from $1M to $1.25M – coming in at a 19% sales ratio.
