We would like to present ‘Westside Detached Stat Package’ for the week of September 15th – September 21st.
The Westside Detached market saw a firming up of sales conditions as confirmed transaction volume rose significantly after three weeks of below average performance to end August and begin September. Supply numbers remain steady, moving to 80 new detached active listings in the Vancouver West Region; up from 79 the previous week. We saw 50 detached sales (up more then 50% from the 21 the previous week). Not surprisingly, performance should remain relatively static through third quarter 2009 prior to a pre-Olympic surge in the late fourth quarter flowing into Q1 2010. Buyer competition remains especially active in Kitsilano, Dunbar, and Point Grey. As such, it may be a solid time to consider listing your home if you have been thinking about proceeding with a sale. The demand is especially acute in Kitsilano where supply has definitely tailed off – especially in the Kits Point areas, and other sectors north of W 4th Ave. Late summer tends to be a rather ‘down time’ for our detached markets due to family vacations, and relativly instability prior to the onset of the school year in September.

New listing supply ended on a relatively strong note, well sales transactions trended upwards after struggling through early September. The mid-to-late Summer months tend to be particularly low-periods for the detached markets due to social factors (ie / summer vacation, etc.) and thus we anticipate a relatively stable market through October prior to a resurgence in the Fall which should carry us through Quarter 4 2009 and the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.
