November 2023
As we approach the Holiday season, sales activity on the North Shore, though tapering off, is outperforming 2022.
In North and West Vancouver sales were up 4 per cent and 65.5 per cent respectively from November 2022 (this is a stark contrast to last November when sales were down 39.4 per cent in North Van and 61.8 per cent in West Van compared to 2021).
With rates significantly higher today, the fact that sales are up perhaps speaks to the long-term confidence consumers have in North Shore real estate.
It should be noted however, that sales remain inconsistent, with certain segments and price ranges performing better than others.
To close out 2023, we expect market activity to continue to slow through the holidays, as many consumers start to look to the new year for a move.
