Home affordability finds its footing, but rising rates could change that
Navigating the shifting landscape of home affordability is something I pay close attention to, especially here in the Greater Vancouver Area. In August, Canada’s average five-year fixed mortgage rate edged up to 4.55%, but for now, this has had only a minimal effect on monthly payments. What’s noteworthy is that affordability has actually improved, largely because of declining home prices in major markets like Toronto, Vancouver, and Montréal. Over my 30 years in real estate, I’ve seen how quickly conditions can change—so while recent trends offer a bit of relief for buyers, rising rates remain something to watch closely. My approach has always been to look beyond the headlines and help clients understand where the true opportunities lie, drawing on decades of experience navigating all facets of the market.

Home prices fuel record affordability gains, but relief remains elusive
After more than three decades in Vancouver real estate, I've seen affordability trends ebb and flow—but the latest numbers paint a complex picture. In Q2 2026, Canadian housing affordability improved for the tenth straight quarter, largely thanks to declining home prices, even as financing costs edged higher. The national affordability index dropped by 11.4 points since Q4 2023. Still, many families are finding relief elusive, as affordability remains below historical averages and regional differences continue to shape each buyer's experience. My approach has always been to guide clients through these market shifts with care, optimism, and a focus on their long-term goals. Whether you're navigating your first purchase or looking at opportunities in a changing market, understanding these trends is key to making confident real estate decisions.

Vancouver Resales Edge Up
Vancouver’s resale market has taken a noticeable step forward, with sales rising about 10% month-over-month and surpassing 2,000 homes sold for the first time in nine months. While prices continued to ease, the rate of decline slowed, leaving the local home price index down roughly 6% year-over-year. These numbers reflect a softer environment, but not a dramatic downturn—more a moment of pause than a sign of lasting trouble.

It’s true that ongoing economic uncertainty, especially around trade tensions, has created some hesitation among buyers. Yet, the market’s resilience shines through with this latest uptick in resales. As someone who has navigated Vancouver’s real estate landscape for over three decades, I know how important it is to look beyond the headlines. One prominent economist recently described this slowdown as a temporary detour rather than a turning point, and I agree: the signs point to stabilization as we move through 2026 and into 2027, tied closely to the city’s broader economic recovery.

For clients and families considering their next steps, these are the moments where experience and perspective matter most. Every cycle brings opportunity for those who stay informed and approach the market with care.

Vancouver Housing Stays Globally Desirable
Vancouver continues to hold its place among the world’s most sought-after cities, ranking 24th out of 1,000 global cities thanks to its strong economy and rich pool of talent. Even as affordability remains a challenge—with a median multiple near 11 and residents spending a significant portion of their income on housing—Vancouver’s enduring appeal is unmistakable. As someone who’s navigated virtually every facet of Vancouver real estate over three decades, I’ve seen firsthand how limited supply and slower housing starts through 2026 are shaping our market. For buyers and sellers alike, understanding these underlying dynamics is key to making informed decisions in a city that remains as desirable as ever, even as affordability weighs on quality of life. It’s this balance of opportunity and challenge that makes our real estate environment unique—and why experience and a client-first approach matter more than ever.

Toronto, Vancouver housing still hugely desirable despite recent challenges
Even with the hurdles we’ve seen lately, Toronto and Vancouver continue to draw attention on the world stage—ranking 20th and 24th globally, thanks in large part to their resilient economies. Yet, as many of you know firsthand, the cost of housing remains a real challenge, reflected in lower Quality of Life scores. Canada is aiming to build between 430,000 and 480,000 homes each year to bring affordability within reach, but we’re not there yet. In my three decades working across all corners of Vancouver’s real estate—residential, commercial, and land assemblies—I’ve witnessed how demand for these cities never seems to wane, even when supply struggles to keep up. For anyone navigating these markets, whether buying, selling, or investing, understanding both the opportunities and the realities is key. My commitment has always been to put your needs first, offering honest perspective and drawing on a lifetime of local experience to help you make informed decisions in this ever-evolving landscape.
