March 2018 STATISTICS REPORT<\/span><\/h2>\n

Fraser Valley Real Estate Report<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lack of sufficient inventory in the Fraser Valley continued to put pressure on homebuyers in March, with sales only slightly above the ten-year average of 1,658 transactions for the month. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board processed 1,664 sales of all property types on its Multiple Listing Service\u00ae (MLS\u00ae) in March, a decrease of 24.8% compared to the 2,213 sales in March of last year, and a 20.1% increase compared to the 1,385 sales in February 2018.<\/p>\n

The attached home market (apartments and townhomes) represented 52% of all the transactions in March. Of the 1,664 sales processed 460 were apartments and 410 were townhomes. The Board received 2,865 new listings in March, a 24.9% increase from February 2018\u2019s 2,293 new listings, and a 6.7% decrease compared to March 2017. March is typically when the Spring market starts to ramp up so homebuyers can be hopeful that more inventory will start to hit the market, allowing buyers to find more success in their Fraser Valley home search.<\/p>\n

What Does The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board Have To Say?<\/h2>\n
\n

Spring market kicks-off with slim supply in March<\/h2>\n
\n

SURREY, BC \u2013 While sales reached slightly above the ten-year average for the month, a lack of sufficient inventory in the Fraser Valley continued to put pressure on homebuyers in March.<\/p>\n

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board processed 1,664 sales of all property types on its Multiple Listing Service\u00ae (MLS\u00ae) in March, a decrease of 24.8 per cent compared to the 2,213 sales in March of last year, and a 20.1 per cent increase compared to the 1,385 sales in February 2018. The ten-year average for sales in the Fraser Valley in March is 1,658 transactions.<\/p>\n

Of the 1,664 sales processed last month, 410 were townhouses and 460 were apartments, together representing 52 per cent of all transactions in March.<\/p>\n

Active inventory for the Fraser Valley finished at 4,796 listings last month, increasing 10.5 per cent month-over-month, and decreasing 0.2 per cent when compared to March 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe continue to see demand capped-off due to an inadequate amount of supply,\u201d said John Barbisan, Board President. \u201cMarch is typically when we see our market kick into gear, but we need to see higher levels of new listings coming in and greater overall inventory if we want more homebuyers to find success in the Valley.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Board received 2,865 new listings in March, a 24.9 per cent increase from February 2018\u2019s 2,293 new listings and a 6.7 per cent decrease compared to March 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the plus side, despite a tighter market pricing has remained relatively stable for our region. Talk to your REALTOR\u00ae who can help show you the best options at the price level you\u2019re looking for.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For the Fraser Valley region the average number of days to sell an apartment in March was 13, and 16 for townhomes. Single family detached homes remained on the market for an average of 30 days before selling.<\/p>\n
