two stories in today’s housing market. which one is real?

There’s a lot being said about the housing market right now, and not all of it lines up. One story points to a slow market, with hesitant buyers and downward pressure on prices. The other points to early signs of change, with sales beginning to pick up and supply tightening. Ryan Berlin and Ryan Wyse are joined by Brandan Price to bring together what the data is showing and what’s playing out in the market. They look at where conditions stand today, what may be shifting beneath the surface, and what it means for how people buy, sell, and make decisions this spring. Featured guests: Ryan Berlin, Head Economist and Vice President of Intelligence Ryan Wyse, Lead Analyst and Market Intelligence Manager Brandan Price, rennie advisor We’d love to answer your real estate questions. Email us at intel@rennie.com or leave a voicemail, and we’ll try to respond in future episodes.

built, but not bought? the housing market story of 2026

Join Ryan Berlin (Head Economist and VP Intelligence) and Ryan Wyse (Market Intelligence Manager and Lead Analyst) as they discuss what the 2026 rennie outlook says is in store for Metro Vancouver's housing market in the year ahead. They examine why prices, rents, and sales activity are likely to remain soft, explore how new supply will start to pull back, and explain why the region's population will shrink once again this year before transitioning back to robust growth. In short, it's a conversation about 2026 shaping up as a year where the market finds its floor—and its footing—and what it means for the industry, buyers, and sellers.
