Metro Vancouver Market Context – North Shore Shows Divergent Municipal Dynamics
November 2025 confirmed that Metro Vancouver housing market saw little change as year-end approached, with the North Shore reflecting this broader trend through divergent municipal dynamics. According to Greater Vancouver REALTORS®, Andrew Lis noted: “As the year draws to a close, the data continues telling a story of a market with many buyers patiently waiting and sellers adjusting to market conditions not seen in years.”
Furthermore, Lis observed that “inventory remains healthy, providing buyers ample choice, which, by contrast, is pushing sellers to accept that pricing must reflect this new reality.” Additionally, he commented: “As sales volumes remain subdued and inventory remains plentiful, properties are taking longer to sell, and pricing has continued to soften slightly across most market segments.”
Metro Vancouver’s sales-to-active-listings ratios stood at 9.7% for detached homes, 13.6% for townhouses, and 14.8% for condos. North Vancouver demonstrated strong performance compared to these benchmarks, with houses achieving 19.2% (nearly double Metro’s baseline), and combined townhouses and condos reaching 19.9% (significantly exceeding both Metro’s townhouse and condo baselines). This exceptional absorption indicates particularly robust demand relative to available inventory in North Vancouver.
Meanwhile, West Vancouver recorded subdued results with houses at 7.2% (below Metro’s baseline), and combined condos and townhouses at 13.9% (falling slightly below Metro’s condo average but aligning with townhouse levels). The divergent performance between North Vancouver’s strong absorption and West Vancouver’s softer demand highlights the varied dynamics within the North Shore market heading into year-end.
Therefore, the North Shore communities continue demonstrating distinct market characteristics as 2025 concludes. North Vancouver’s stronger absorption metrics suggest sustained buyer interest across all segments, while West Vancouver’s buyer-favorable conditions provide negotiating opportunities particularly in the ultra-luxury detached segment.
