The Bank of Canada just held rates at 2.25% for the second time
in a row.

A lot of buyers were waiting for rates to drop before they
bought. That plan just hit a wall. Oil is up. New tariffs are
here. The Bank is watching inflation, not cutting.

Meanwhile, homes in Vancouver are sitting 37 days on average.
Sellers are taking offers that were unthinkable a year ago. Sale
to list is 96.8%. Buyers who show up right now have more room
than they have had in a long time.

Here is the trap. When people finally stop waiting, they rush
in. They skip the checks. They miss the strata red flags. They
forget to ask about the roof, the plumbing, and the depreciation
report. That is the mistake I see the most.

Comment RISK and I'll send you my Homebuyer Risk Checklist. It's
the list of things I'd want checked before you buy.

The sign got the laughs. The number under it is the real story.

Here's what most people miss when trade fights land. The tariff is a tax on stuff we import. That stuff gets more expensive. Companies pay more. Then workers get less. Then buyers get careful. Then some sellers get tired.

That's the real chain that moves BC housing during a trade war. It's not a crash. It's slow pressure that squeezes the sellers who can't wait.

If you are a buyer with time and cash, that's your window. If you are a seller who needs speed, price it right on day one. If you are neither, hold and watch.

Small helpful tip: check your job security first. Then your cash cushion. Then your mortgage terms. In that order. The market is not the first thing to plan around. It's the last.

Comment LIST and I'll send you today's list. It's for buyers who want more room to negotiate. Real homes. Sellers who care more about moving than maxing price.

RBC just said the quiet part out loud.

Housing recovery for Canada? Not this year. RBC now expects visible recovery to show up in 2027.

Here's the number that stopped me. Since 2023, RBC counted FOUR times when the market looked like it was about to turn. Each one got knocked off track. Trade wars. Rate shocks. Buyer confidence swings.

Vancouver and Ontario are the two spots feeling it the most. Our condo market may take even longer to bounce because there is still too much sitting on the market.

Here is why this matters for anyone thinking about selling this fall. A recovery on paper is not the same as more money in your pocket. If you list too high, your home sits. If it sits, buyers get more room to ask for a discount. That gap costs sellers real dollars.

The smartest move is not guessing your walk-away number. It is knowing it before you list.

Comment SELLER NET and I'll send you my Seller Net Sheet. It helps you see what you may keep before you list.

🚨 METRO VANCOUVER HOME SALES WERE 20.7% BELOW THE 10-YEAR AUGUST AVERAGE, SAYS GVR
⠀
This is the September 2026 market update. August sales fell from last year, while benchmark prices moved lower across detached, townhome and apartment homes.
⠀
THE NUMBERS:
⠀
🏠 There were 1,869 home sales in August, down 4.6% from August 2025.
⠀
📉 Sales were 20.7% below the 10-year seasonal average for August.
⠀
📦 There were 15,798 active listings. That was 2.7% lower than last year, but 26.2% above the 10-year seasonal average.
⠀
💵 The composite benchmark price was $1,081,900, down 5.6% year over year and 0.6% from July.
⠀
🏡 The detached benchmark was $1,799,400, down 7.2% year over year and 1.3% from July.
⠀
🏢 The apartment benchmark was $686,200, down 6.6% year over year. The townhome benchmark was $1,028,800, down 4.4%.
⠀
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR REAL ESTATE:
⠀
More selection and softer benchmark prices can give some buyers more options. But this does not mean every home is a deal. Conditions vary by area, property type, price and condition.

A buyer's market does not make every home a deal.

It gives you more time to compare.
It gives you more room to ask why the seller is moving.

That part matters.

A low list price can still be a bad buy.
A fair list price can become a good buy when the seller needs a clear date, few conditions, or a fast close.

Look at the home.
Then look at the reason behind the sale.

That is often where the real room to deal shows up.

Most people missed this part of the ICBC news.

The province is not just swapping out cameras.

About 90 BC intersections will actually get dug up. New poles. New wiring. Sidewalk work. Traffic detours.

If you're house hunting near one of those corners, that changes your morning coffee run for months.

Nobody thinks about roadwork when they fall in love with a home.

Buyers walk through on a sunny Saturday. They notice the kitchen. They notice the schools. They don't notice that the intersection three blocks over is on ICBC's replacement list.

Six months later they're stuck in cones every time they leave the driveway.

Not the end of the world. Just something worth knowing before you write the offer.

That's why I keep a Homebuyer Risk Checklist. Small stuff. Big peace of mind.
