Greater Vancouver Home Sales Surge in March: REBGV
S
pring may have been slow to take hold in terms of the weather this year, but in terms of real estate sales it was a typically busy spring market in March. Home sales in the Greater Vancouver region last month surged by nearly 50 per cent compared with February, showing the third-busiest March in at least the past 10 years, according to statistics published by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) on April 4. “While demand in March was below the record high of last year, we saw demand increase month-to-month for condos and townhomes,” said Jill Oudil, REBGV president. “Sellers still seem reluctant to put their homes on the market, making for stiff competition among home buyers.”

Sales and Listings After a slow start to the year, there were 3,579 residential sales on the Greater Vancouver MLS® in March, a drop of 30.9 per cent compared with March 2016, but a rise of 47.6 per cent over February’s 2,425 home sales. March’s transaction total was 7.9 per cent higher than the 10-year average for the month. As usual, however, the figures varied significantly when broken down by property type. Some 1,150 single-family homes exchanged hands in March – a drop of 46.1 per cent from the record-breaking detached home market of last March, but a leap of more than 54 per cent over February this year. Townhome, row home and duplex properties saw 588 unit sales in March, a 25.2 per cent decrease from March 2016, but
a 45.5 per cent rise month over month. Condo sales kept their upward trajectory, with 1,841 units sold in March. This was a decline of 18.3 per cent compared with March 2016, but a 44.4 per cent increase since February. Potential sellers were still somewhat reluctant to list their homes in March, with 4,762 new listings coming up for sale – 24.1 per cent less than in March 2016. However, there were some signs of spring movement, as the figure is nearly 30 per cent higher than this year’s very slow February. Active listings as of the end of March totalled 7,786 homes, a slight 3.1 per cent increase compared with March 2016 and almost flat with February at a 0.1 per cent decrease. Once more, due to sales rising month over month but supply remaining comparatively

constrained, the overall sales-toactive listings ratio is firmly in seller’s market territory at 47.2 per cent, up another 15 points over February’s jump. Benchmark Prices The combined residential benchmark price (all property types) in Greater Vancouver in March was $919,300 – an increase of 1.4 per cent from the previous month, and 12.7 per cent higher than March 2016, but just under a percentage point lower than the price peak of around six months ago. This slight six-month decline, however, is entirely led by single-family home benchmark prices. Last month these were 10.9 per cent higher than March 2016 at $1,489,900 – and one per cent higher than February’s price, but five per cent lower than six months ago.

Attached home benchmark prices saw another year-overyear rise, up 16 per cent to $685,100, an increase of 1.4 per cent since February and higher than six months ago by 1.3 per cent. Condo-apartment prices saw the biggest month-over-month rise, and also took the prize for annual increase, at $537,400. This is 16.1 per cent more than a year ago, up 2.1 per cent over February and an impressive 5.2 per cent over the past six months. “Home prices will likely continue to increase until we see more housing supply coming on to the market,” Oudil said. Home prices vary widely throughout the REBGV region. To get a good idea of home prices in a specific location, check the detailed MLS® Home Price Index at rebgv.org.

SOHO Offers Sophistication and Sunshine in Surrey
M
ultiple-award-winning developer, Zenterra Developments, has been honoured once again, taking home the coveted 2017 Grand Georgie-Multi Family Home Builder of the Year – making this the second year in a row. “We are proud to have received nine Georgie awards nominations this year,” says Sam Milani, Zenterra’s design and marketing director. This is a testament to the quality and craftsmanship put into each home Zenterra builds. Now you too can live in a Zenterra home. Welcome to SOHO, a sophisticated collection of 170 townhomes in sunny South Surrey starting at just $619,990. Located in a thriving community adjacent to the future five-acre Oak Meadows park, these West Coast contemporary residences are created for today’s busy lifestyle – offering a selection of two-, three- and four -bedroom homes, each boasting a stunning rooftop patio.
Ranging from 427 to 712 square, the sun-drenched patios boast fabulous ocean and mountain vistas. “Our private rooftop patios are great for outdoor entertaining or just relaxing to watch the sunset,” notes Milani, adding the high-end porcelain slabs patios are resistant to staining, fading, marking and extreme weather. Each outdoor oasis is equipped with a natural gas outlet that can be upgraded to a fully built-in custom barbeque. The light-filled interiors, ranging from 1,449 to 2,034 square feet, are distinguished by laminate wide plank hardwood flooring throughout the main and plush carpeting on the upper level. Taking their cue from Zenterra’s Georgie and Ovation Award finalist kitchens from both Hyde Park and Zen Townhomes, the gourmet kitchens include your choice of Shaker-style or fl at-panel wood-veneer contemporary cabinetry, solid slab quartz backsplashes and countertops, and stylish
pendants over the islands. The KitchenAid stainless-steel appliance package features five-burner gas cooktops and built-in wall ovens and microwaves. “SOHO Intelligent Modern Living even includes a custom-built entertainment wall featuring Italian porcelain tile and a lineal fireplace at no extra cost,” Sam says. For those who want to entertain a large crowd or conduct a business meeting, there will be a 5,000-square-foot amenity building with meeting rooms, theatre room, hobby rooms, gym, pool table, play area, lounge and patio. SOHO is yet another example of the excellence and quality that Zenterra is well known for; they are the standards the company delivered in its past hugely successful projects – Hyde Park and Zen. Each exterior is showcased by its own distinctive colour, and when you factor in old-world craftsmanship, uniqueness and sense of place, SOHO embodies what a
single-family home should feel like. This is a wonderful opportunity to be part of a scenic and vibrant neighbourhood minutes from great schools, parks, beaches, shopping, including Morgan Crossing and Grandview Corners, and entertainment. In addition, SOHO is close to public transit, fitness facilities and all the community amenities you will ever need. And with Highway 99 and the US border within a few minutes’ drive, a spontaneous family road trip is never out of the question. South Surrey also has a reputation for having excellent schools, including the award-winning Southridge, a co-ed private school catering to kindergarten to Grade 12, which isn’t far from SOHO. SOHO’s Sales Centre and two fully furnished show homes, located at 2280 163 St. (163 St. and 24 Ave.) SOHO is open daily noon to 5pm.
