SURREY, BC – Market conditions are ideal for Fraser Valley home buyers this summer, but the persistent gap between buyers’ and sellers’ price expectations continues to suppress sales. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 1,190 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in July, down half a per cent from June and down three per cent year-over-year. July sales were 23 per cent below the 10-year average. The supply of homes for sale dipped slightly in July, down two per cent from June to 10,650, nearly 50 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average. New listings declined five per cent over June to 3,453. The Fraser Valley remains in a buyer’s market with an overall sales-to-active listings ratio of 11 per cent; the market is considered balanced when the ratio is between 12 per cent and 20 per cent.
