June 2026 Market Insights – Watch GVR June 2026 overview of housing market activity in Metro Vancouver.
Demand for all home types in Metro Vancouver* increased to start the summer, with home sales up nearly ten per cent year-over-year in June.
The Greater Vancouver REALTORS® (GVR) reports that residential sales in the region totalled 2,390 in June 2026, a 9.6 per cent increase from the 2,181 sales recorded in June 2025. This was 12.4 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,728).
“June saw a pattern of broad gains in home sales across all home types relative to the same time last year, which has been a rare occurrence in recent years. June’s data could be an early sign of a shift in the market. In recent years, sales trends have usually been mixed across home types, which is typical of a sideways trending market. But with all housing types posting gains in June, the data indicate demand may be returning to the market more broadly.” — Economics and Data Analytics
