Vancouver Homes Sales in 2015
Break Records, Rise 28%: Board
2
015 was a record-breaking year for Greater Vancouver real estate, with sales totalling the most ever recorded, according to Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) data released in early January. Sales of residential properties across the year totalled 42,326, a 27.8 per cent increase when compared with the 33,116 sales recorded in 2014. However, the number of homes listed for sale in Greater Vancouver last year increased by just 2.1 per cent year over year. With sales-to-listings ratios of more than 25 per cent for 11 out of 12 months in 2015, it was a strong sellers’ market for much of the year, said the board. “Home buyers were active and motivated throughout 2015 despite the pressure on supply of homes on the market,” said Darcy McLeod, REBGV president. “Housing markets typically experience quieter periods within a calendar year, but that wasn’t the case in

Metro Vancouver last year.”
Sales and Listings In December 2015, Greater Vancouver home sales rose 33.6 per cent year over year to 2,827 units, compared with the 2,116 sales recorded in December 2014. This is an anticipated seasonawl decline of 19.8 per cent decrease compared with the 3,524 sales in November 2015. Broken down by housing type, detached home sales increased 36.4 per cent year over year. Unlike the previous few months, this increase was the fastest growth rate of the three property types. There were 1,136 singlefamily home sales in December, compared with the 833 sales in December 2014. Townhomes and other attached properties saw a slightly slowing rate of annual sales growth in December. The 466 units sold represented a 25.6 per cent increase over the 371 units in December 2014. Sales of condominium-apartments totalled

1,225 in December, an increase of 34.3 per cent compared with December 2014 and once more the highest total sales of the three property types. The shortage of property listings unsurprisingly continued in December. The total number of properties listed for sale as of December 2015 in Greater Vancouver stands at 6,024, a 41.6 per cent decline compared with December 2014. The total number of Greater Vancouver homes listed for sale last year increased by just 2.1 per cent year over year to 57,249, compared with the 56,066 properties listed in 2014. December was the 10th consecutive month that the sales-to-active-listings ratio has been above 30 per cent in Metro Vancouver, meaning that the strong sellers’ market conditions continue to strengthen further.
Benchmark Prices Metro Vancouver’s combined residential

property type benchmark price yet again set a new record in December, now at $760,900. This is an 18.9 per cent increase compared with December 2014 and a 1.1 per cent rise over the price recorded in November 2015. The price of a Metro Vancouver singlefamily home increased 24.3 per cent over December 2014 to $1,248,600. This was once again the fastest annual price growth of all the home types. The benchmark price of a townhome or other attached unit increased 13.6 per cent between December 2014 and 2015 to $543,700. Continuing the price surge seen in October and November, condo-apartment benchmark prices rose 14 per cent year over year again, to $436,200, reflecting the increase in demand from buyers pushed out of the detached home and townhouse market, and the dramatically rising cost of land for new condominium development.

Resort-style living is yours at LOUGHEED HEIGHTS
T
he Bosa family’s BlueSky Properties, in partnership with Bosa Properties, award-winning builders behind some of the Lower Mainland’s most iconic developments, are once again about to change West Coquitlam’s skyline. In 2014, Bosa unveiled Uptown, a new luxury condominium development in the same neighourhood, which garnered positive reviews and sold out extremely fast. Welcome to Bosa’s newest project Lougheed Heights. In the epicentre of this sought-after postal code – close to SkyTrain, Lougheed Town Centre, excellent schools (including SFU), shops, restaurants – a renaissance of sorts is about to rise with this master planned community. Once completed, it will consist of three towers, the first being a 37-storey concrete building featuring a sophisticated collection of 334 homes. So why are home buyers excited about this newest project? For one, it will feature private resort-style amenities. Club BlueSky at Lougheed Heights will boast more than 24,000 square feet of leisure space over
three levels, showcased by a heated outdoor pool on third-floor rooftop complete with cabanas and lounge chairs, a barbecue terrace with fire pits and harvest table and children’s playground. For fitness enthusiasts, there will be a fully equipped fitness centre with its own basketball sport court and steam and sauna rooms. In addition, Club BlueSky will showcase an entertainment lounge and games room, a separate private dining room and chef kitchen, a theatre screening room, two acoustically engineered music rooms and a business centre with meeting room and private study pods. Designed by award-winning architect Chris Dikeakos, the tower will feature generous decks and balconies – great for entertaining or for taking in the sweeping views
of the cityscape. Inside these West Coast contemporary condominiums, the design is understated yet sophisticated, cozy yet clean. They consist of one-, two- and three-bedroom residences varying in size from 504 to 1664 square feet. In addition, there will be two larger subpenthouses and three penthouses on the 36th and 37th floors. Most of the one bedroom homes will come standard with BosaSPACE, a functional concept that was recently introduced in Bosa’s University District and RiverSky communities. BosaSPACE homes will include the ExtenTABLE, which can transform from kitchen island to long table for eight. In addition, they will also have the SleepTHEATRE, a shelving unit which slides open to reveal a
sofa/guest-bed behind the television. “West Coquitlam is set to be one of Metro Vancouver’s most promising new communities and that’s why we have invested so heavily in the Evergreen corridor,” says Dale Bosa, CEO of BlueSky Properties. This community is fast becoming known as one of the most desired neighbourhoods in the city and Lougheed Heights will grow right alongside it. West Coquitlam’s reputation is that of Metro Vancouver’s next rapid transit community and Lougheed Heights is steps away from the existing Millennium Line and the future Evergreen Line. With prices starting from $279,900, Lougheed Heights is affordable luxury in the heart of a re-energized community. The sales centre is located at 581 Clarke Road (at Como Lake Ave), Coquitlam and is now open for preview from noon to 5pm daily. Register for more information at www.blueskyproperties.ca, or contact the sales team at 604-939-2677 or email: lougheed@blueskyproperties.ca. Tentative occupancy is slated for winter 2018.
