Greater Vancouver has over 16,000 active listings and a sales-to-active ratio of 10.9%, firmly buyer's market territory. Homes still sell every day. Here's what the ones that sell well have in common.
Price to today's market, not last spring's. Benchmark prices are down about 5–7% year over year. A sharp price draws showings in the first two weeks, when interest is highest.
Invest in presentation. Professional photography, video and staging help your listing stand out among dozens of similar homes.
Market beyond MLS®. Targeted social media, video tours and print reach buyers who aren't actively scrolling listings yet.
Prepare documents up front. Strata minutes, depreciation reports and recent upgrades ready on day one remove buyer hesitation.
Be flexible on terms. Possession dates and subject periods can matter as much as price.
Marketing is what our team is known for. Request a free home evaluation or call City To Suburb Real Estate Group at 604-626-1483 to see how we'd position your home.
