East Vancouver Townhome and Half Duplex Market Update
The East Van townhouse and half duplex market has experienced just what we expected – low inventory (currently sits at 43 properties, the lowest since before 2012), a very high 65% sales to active ratio (making it a strong Seller’s market), an increase in the number of days on market (currently at 18, up from the year’s average of 10), and a high average sales price (currently at $668k, down from last month’s highest ever average of $673k). Keep in mind the sale price includes everything from inexpensive townhouses across East Van, to brand new and expensive half duplexes.
The busiest townhouse/duplex markets are close to downtown, with new townhouse units being sold by Developer’s snapped up very quickly.
