Westside Vancouver Detached Property Market Update : February 22 - March 1

We would like to present ‘Westside Detached Stat Package’ for the week of February 22 - March 1.

The Westside Detached market returned to pre-Olympic levels this past week after posting strong gains going into the 2010 Games.  We saw 58 new detached listings on the Westside (down from approximately 80 per week in the periods prior), with Cambie and Dunbar remaining the strongest markets with 10 and 9 new listings respectively.  The detached market on the Westside had been quite hot on the buyer side through the end of January and as such we saw quite a supply increase through the first two weeks of February.  The effect of hosting the Olympics plus a degree of demand balance has caused supply to fall back slightly; though we expect activity to pick up as the Spring season comes into full effect.

Confirmed sales on the Westside remained fairly steady through February, and we saw similar numbers this past week as the neighbourhoods as a whole posted 38 detached sales
Dunbar and South Granville posted the highest confirmed sales numbers with 5 and 6 confirmed sales in each neighbourhood respectively.

Please note if your neighbourhood is not included in the weekly list it indicates there were zero (0) confirmed sales in your area for that period.

The 58 new detached active listings on the Westside were distributed as follows:
