Q1 [Jan-March] 2024

April 4, 2024

North Shore home sales were inconsistent through the first quarter (Q1), with a stronger year-over-year Jan+Feb and lagging March. Consequently, there were modest changes from 2023, with Q1 sales up 5.2 per cent in North Vancouver and down 2.2 per cent in West Vancouver.

It appears that sellers are becoming more active bringing greater balance to the market. This is typical for the spring, although it is also likely influenced by some trying to time anticipated Bank of Canada interest rate cuts.
