Home sales pick up at the start of summer across region

Real estate sales continue to scuffle in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, but showed signs of life across Greater Vancouver.

The Greater Vancouver Realtors (GVR) stats show residential sales in the region totalled 2,390 in June – a 9.6 per cent increase from the 2,181 sales recorded in June last year. This was still 12.4 per cent below the 10-year seasonal average (2,728).

“June saw a pattern of broad gains in home sales across all home types relative to the same time last year, which has been a rare occurrence in recent years,” said Andrew Lis, GVR chief economist. “June’s data could be an early sign of a shift in the market. In recent years, sales trends have usually been mixed across home types, which is typical of a sideways trending market. But with all housing types posting gains in June, the data indicate demand may be returning to the market more broadly.”

Sales in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are down slightly across all property types over the past three months. Through April, May and June 207 houses sold, compared with 219 through the same three months in 2025 – a six per cent decrease. The numbers were down for townhouses in the same period, from 127 to 125, and apartments dropped from 104 to 101.

The benchmark price of a single family home in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows ($1.19 million) was still well below the Lower Mainland’s overall price of $1.64 million.

The benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $1.1 million. This represents a six per cent decrease over June 2025.

As of May, the year-to-date residential sales dollar volume was down eight per cent across B.C., to $25 billion, compared with the same period in 2025. Residential unit sales are down almost seven per cent across the province.
