15,000+ Homes on the Market — What It Means for Buyers & Sellers

15,000+ Homes on the Market — What It Means for Buyers & Sellers

September 2025 Vancouver Real Estate Market Report

The Big Picture

There are 15,000+ homes listed across Greater Vancouver & the Fraser Valley.

👉 Here’s how to read that number:

  • Under 10,000 listings → Seller’s market

  • Between 10,000–11,000 listings → Balanced

  • Over 11,000 listings → Buyer’s market

With 15,000+ listings today, buyers have leverage and sellers face real competition.

Now let’s zoom into where I work every day: Downtown, East Van, and the Westside.

Downtown Sub-Areas at a Glance

  • Yaletown: Drives 1–2 bed demand, parking helps.

  • Coal Harbour: Luxury softer (fees + supply).

  • West End: Best value in older concrete.

  • Downtown Central: Investor-heavy; sharp pricing moves units.


My Take on the Market

The real action is in the middle of the market:

  • $600K–$1.2M Downtown condos still sell if priced right.

  • East Van duplexes under $2M are the new family home.

  • Westside attached under $1M remains steady; detached $3M+ is sticky.

This is a skill market, not a speed market — price, prep, and presentation are everything.
