Sales activity held its ground in the Vancouver Region in July with a smaller month-over-month decline than is typical for this time of year. That said, sales were still a fifth lower than their long-run average. New listings activity was down in July, but remained at historically elevated levels, and inventory was at its highest level since the summer of 2019.
