SURREY, BC \u2013 Fraser Valley home prices continued to edge downward in July, with the composite Benchmark price down 0.8 per cent from June and down seven per cent year-over-year. Despite improving affordability, buyers remained cautious, keeping sales well below typical seasonal levels.<\/div>\r\n
\u00a0<\/div>\r\n
The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 1,089 sales on its Multiple Listing Service\u00ae (MLS\u00ae) in July, a five per cent decrease from June and nine per cent below the same month last year.<\/div>\r\n
\u00a0<\/div>\r\n
“Buyer urgency has been notably absent from the Fraser Valley market for some time now,” said Ishaq Ismail, Chair of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board. “With inventory remaining high and competition subdued, buyers know they don’t have to rush. They can take their time evaluating their options, knowing they can return to a market that continues to offer plenty of choice.”<\/div>\r\n
\u00a0<\/div>\r\n
Seller activity slowed in July, with 2,836 new listings coming to market\u2014a 14 per cent decline from June and 18 per cent below the same month last year.

“Economic uncertainty continues to influence buying decisions, but the Fraser Valley has remained one of the Lower Mainland\u2019s brightest spots for improving affordability,” said Anthony Boone, Interim CEO of the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board. “As home prices continue to ease, qualified buyers are finding opportunities that simply weren’t available a few years ago, particularly those looking to enter the market or downsize.”<\/div>\r\n
