- The highest average PPSF achieved into October 2018 was in Downtown Vancouver, at $3,065 (up slightly from $3,037 in Q3 2018), while lowest was in Abbotsford at $431.

What this means for youA value premium exists for more accessible homes, including those located near Vancouver's downtown core and along frequent transit corridors. Good relative value continues to prevail in neighbourhoods south of the Fraser River and in the region's northeast sector.
