Attached are the Sales and Listings Stats updated to the end of July 2013.
The summer sizzle was on, not only was it a record breaking month for fantastic
weather, but the real estate in Vancouver was also quite hot. July proved to be
the highest month for sales in Greater Vancouver in 2013 with 2,986 units sold,
compared 2,668 in June 2013 and up 41% compared to July 2012 at 2,135. In fact,
it was the highest amount of sales in the month of July since 2009. Richmond saw
the biggest gain year over year, up 88% in July 2013 compared to July 2012. Pent
up demand seems to have brought buyers to the market with activity strong
through the month. What a difference a year can make!
