December's Real Estate Statistics shows that we have hit BOTTOM! Single Family Homes in Metro Vancouver experienced an Average Monthly Price Decrease of just $1,777. This is a vast improvement from the $5-25,000 monthly drops that we have seen for the last 30 consecutive months. This long dropping market means that we have built up a lot of pent-up buyers just waiting for the market to bottom out. Now some of these buyers are finally stepping back into the market. Today we have a stark difference between the Low-End and High-End Markets. Overall, Single Family Homes in the Fraser Valley Market had a $1,355 monthly price increase, which is a positive trend from last month's price increase of $792. Over the next few months, we are forecasting price increases in the Low-End (lower-50%) and stabilization for the High-End (Top-50%) Vancouver Detached Home Markets.
