Here are the latest real estate market statistics from Macdonald Realty on Abbotsford, Cloverdale, Langley, Mission, North Delta, North Surrey, Surrey Central, White Rock/South Surrey listings and sales in January 2020.

In January the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board processed 974 sales of all property types on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in January, a 21.9 per cent decrease compared to sales in December 2019, and a 24.2 per cent increase compared to the 784 sales in January of last year.

According to the Board, of the 974 total MLS® sales of residential and commercial combined in the Fraser Valley, 363 were single family detached homes, 241 were townhouses, and 248 were apartments.

Darin Germyn, President of the Board and Macdonald Realty real estate agent said:

“Considering our record-shattering snow and cold, the pace of home sales remained surprisingly balanced in January,” said Darin Germyn, President of the Board. “Sales in our region have steadily improved since July of last year and January’s numbers remained consistent with that trend.”

5,143 active listings were available in the Fraser Valley at the end of January, an increase of 9.8 per cent compared to December 2019’s inventory and a decrease of 14.2 per cent year-over-year.

As reported by the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, 2,216 new listings were received – a significant increase compared to December 2019’s intake of 948 new listings and a 15.1 per cent decrease compared year-over-year.

Darin Germyn explained that the weather may have had an impact in January, is on their housing supply.

“For certain property types, listings in the Fraser Valley are not keeping pace with sales.  In areas of Surrey and Langley for example, for every two townhomes listed, one is selling. So, if you’re thinking of buying, talk to your REALTOR® about local market conditions to understand the variances”.

The report says that for the Fraser Valley region, the average number of days to sell an apartment in January was 49, and 47 for townhomes. Single family detached homes remained on the market for an average of 60 days before selling.

MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) Benchmark Price

 Average and median home prices are often misinterpreted, are affected by change in the mix of homes sold, and can swing dramatically from month to month (based on the types and prices of properties that sold in a given month). The MLS® HPI overcomes these shortcomings and uses the concept of a benchmark home, a notional home with common attributes of typical homes in a defined area.

In December the Board processed a total of 1,247 sales, the third-best December since 2010. Active inventory finished at 4,686 units in December, 20.3% lower than the 10‐year average for the month, with a total of 948 new listings entering the market throughout the month.

Darin Germyn, President of the Board and Macdonald Realty real estate agent said that comparatively, 2019 was slower than normal for that region.  “Earlier in the year, we were still feeling the impact of the stress test introduced in 2018, but with steady job growth in our region and a stable economy, we’ve seen sales in the last few months return to above‐average levels.”

Germyn added, “Some sellers have been holding back on listing, waiting until the market improves, with the result that supply in many areas currently is quite tight; so if you’re looking to enter the market in 2020, now is a good time. Without a healthy supply of inventory in the coming months, we could see upward pressure on prices.”

Here are the latest real estate market statistics from Macdonald Realty on Abbotsford, Cloverdale, Langley, Mission, North Delta, North Surrey, Surrey Central, White Rock/South Surrey listings and sales in November 2019.

According to the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board a combination of unseasonably high demand and declining supply reinforced Fraser Valley’s real estate market in November. Darin Germyn, President of the Board and real estate agent at Macdonald Realty, says, “Some listings are seeing a lot of activity depending on location and property type. REALTORS® are reporting more showings, higher traffic at open houses and even some multiple offer situations, which is atypical for the time of year. For our region, a balanced market is when 12 to 20 per cent of active inventory is selling. In November, 33 per cent of our supply of townhomes sold, as did 29 per cent of Fraser Valley condos; indicating that the supply of attached properties isn’t keeping up with demand.”
