Unit Sales Blast-Off with Sales Prices In-Tow for Vancouver WA Condos in April 2021.
An almost-Doubling of Unit sales was posted this month compared to the same month last year. Sale Prices eased slightly after rising like a skyrocket last month; but, are still up 25%+ over last year. Here are the key points for this month:
- The Short term Condo Sales Price (3-Month Moving Average) eased just over $4k and is now at $366,830; which is up 25.54% compared to the prior April; and the 12-Month Moving Average is at 15.65% compared to the prior year;
- 71 Resale Condominiums were sold, which is up 35 units compared to April 2020, and 3 fewer than last month;
- REO/Bank Owned Condominium sales remained at 1 units (1.41% of total); up from 0 (0% of total) in April 2020.
- Short Sale /Pre-Foreclosure property sales were 0 units (0% of total); no change from 0 (0% of total) in 2020.
The custom chart below has been prepared to show the Unit-Sales for the Vancouver Condo market Units-Sold trends - both short-term and long-term:
This year both short-term and long-term lines are racing upwards, and the short-term trend has been able to cross above the long-term line this month. The long-term trend is clearly in all-time high territory! With such a small overall condo market we may be seeing an upper limit soon to the number of these types of homes being sold.
Next up is my custom chart for the Average Sales Price, showing both the short-term and long-term trends:

Seeing how far upwards prices moved last month, it is no wonder that a slight easing is seen this month. With few luxury condo closings on the horizon, there may be further "easing" in the near term.
My final charts show Unit Sales, Average & Median Prices; and Days on Market results (from RMLS chart-tools):
Inventory-by-Month finds all three: New Listings, Pending Sales and Closed Sales have all eased slightly this month.
The middle graph showing both the Closed Sales Price and New Listings Average Price easing slightly with the previous three months posting higher numbers.
The final graph shows an 14-Day Drop in the Average Days on Market; with the Median Days on Market remaining at the super-low 5 Days! This is clearly a Strong Seller's Market.
