"The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that total residential sales of detached, attached and apartment properties reached 2,776 units in September 2007, an increase of 10.2 per cent compared to 2,519 sales in September 2006.
The inventory of residential properties listed for sale remains stable, with an overall year-to-date increase of 4.1 per cent to 45,054 residential units listed between January and September 2007, from 43,264 for the same period in 2006. The number of new listings increased 8.2 per cent to 4770 in September from 4408 in August of this year.
"There is no single demographic of buyers. They include first-time buyers, people choosing to take advantage of current home equity to 'move up' in the market, as well as people coming into Greater Vancouver from other areas. Our data indicates that the majority are purchasing a principal residence," says REBGV president Brian Naphtali.
"There's a great deal of choice in the market for a range of consumers today," explains Naphtali. "While 45 per cent of homes for sale are priced at below $500,000, there are also a significant number - 37 per cent - listed in the $500,000 to $1-million range. Of the active listing inventory of more than 11,000 residential properties, approximately18 per cent are priced above $1-million."
According to Multiple Listings Service® (MLS®) data, sales of apartment properties increased by 7.7 per cent to 1,177 sales in September 2007 compared to 1,093 sales in September 2006. The benchmark price of an apartment property in Greater Vancouver, calculated by the MLSLink® Housing Price Index, is $371,718 up 11.1 per cent from one year ago.
Sales of attached properties increased by 27.6 per cent in September 2007 to 500 sales, compared to 392 sales in September 2006. The benchmark price of an attached unit is $452,944, up 10 per cent from a year ago.
Sales of detached properties increased by 6.3 per cent in September 2007 to 1,099 sales, compared to 1,034 sales in September 2006. The benchmark price of a detached unit is $737,927 up 11.9 per cent from last year."

I found Sue through her Vancouver Relocation web site (which is a great reference for all new residents in the area, as well as an excellent service for those planning a move). Having a real estate agent who understands the differences between house-buying in the UK and BC was a real plus for us, and Sue explains the process in a way that's easy to understand for newcomers.
The process is much better than in the UK, and as a realtor acting solely on the behalf of the buyer, Sue’s Vancouver Relocation services didn’t cost us a penny. I found this hard to believe given what a tremendous asset it was having our own expert guide us through the system. I felt like I was on an episode of “Location, Location, Location” [British TV property programme] and Sue was our very own Kirsty Allsop!

Your website and emails explained the whole buying process so we were well prepared. Having Frank there too meant that we had a team working for us - you both worked so hard on our behalf.
We successfully bought a house - the whole process took more or less 4 days! Your service offers so much more than Real Estate - you truly are a Vancouver Relocation service. We would thoroughly recommend your service.
