Greater Vancouver Market Intelligence: July 2026
Monthly Research Note | August 5, 2026
July answered June's question, and the answer was no. June's broad demand pop — the first meaningful annual sales gain of this cycle — did not persist: July sales fell to 2,061, down 9.8% year-over-year (YoY) and down 13.8% from June, led by an 18% collapse in apartment sales. Prices didn't just stay soft; the decline accelerated. Every segment's benchmark fell roughly a full point month-over-month (MoM) — the Composite Home Price Index (HPI) dropped 0.9% to $1,088,800, a fresh cycle low, 20.8% below the April 2022 peak and the steepest monthly decline since January. The one trend that did persist is the constructive one: sellers kept withdrawing. New listings fell to exactly the 10-year seasonal norm, and the inventory overhang compressed for a fourth straight month, to +26.8% above normal. Meanwhile the macro backdrop split in two — June inflation cooled to 2.8%, reopening the September rate-cut conversation, three days after Washington imposed 50% tariffs on Canadian autos, dairy, and alcohol, effective August 19. Last month we wrote that one strong month is not a bottom. July is why.
