    The Pulse: September 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley

    A quiet end to summer, with buyers still taking their time and rental activity picking up heading into fall. August brought just two presale launches and 76 new homes across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, well below typical levels for the month. Early sales reached approximately 3%, while September is expected to remain quiet as developers continue to take a measured approach to new releases. Resale activity also remained soft, with sales sitting below ten-year seasonal averages and inventory remaining elevated across both regions. Meanwhile, the rental market saw stronger leasing activity through August, helped in part by students getting settled ahead of the September semester. And there’s significantly more rental supply on the way. Nearly 1,300 new purpose-built rental homes are forecast to complete in September across seven projects, giving renters more choice as we head into fall. In this month’s episode of The Pulse, Brittany Reimer, Alan He, and Ashley Judd unpack the latest trends across presale, resale, and rental markets, from subdued fall launch activity and shifting resale conditions to stronger seasonal rental demand and the wave of new supply coming to market.

    The Pulse: June 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley

    Concrete returns, but buyer urgency lags. May brought the first concrete presale launch of 2026, but buyer urgency has yet to follow. Absorption remained well below historical averages, resale inventory stayed elevated, and apartment product continued to lag across both Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. While affordability is improving and detached housing is showing relative strength, confidence remains the missing piece. On the rental side, supply continues to build. Four projects completed in May, with an even larger wave of new inventory expected in June, including the first completed tower at Sen̓áḵw. Despite the influx of supply, rental rates have largely stabilized, suggesting the pace of softening may finally be slowing. In this month’s episode of The Pulse, Suzana Goncalves, Brittany Reimer, and Alan He unpack the latest shifts across presale, resale, and rental markets, from the return of concrete product and evolving buyer behaviour to stabilizing rents and one of the largest rental completion months forecast this year. 📍 Filmed at Rhythm in South Surrey.

    The Pulse: May 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley

    April continued to reflect a highly selective spring market, with presale launches remaining limited, resale inventory elevated, and rental supply steadily building across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. While townhomes continue to dominate new presale activity, overall launch volumes remain historically low as developers hold back larger condominium projects and buyers take a more cautious approach. At the same time, renters are benefiting from growing choice, competitive pricing, and a wave of new purpose-built supply entering the market. In this month’s Presale Pulse, Suzana Goncalves, Brittany Reimer, and Alan He unpack what April’s data is revealing across presale, resale, and rental markets. From the Bank of Canada’s fourth consecutive rate hold and slowing economic momentum to softening resale pricing, constrained presale supply, and stabilizing rental rates, they explore how today’s conditions are shaping buyer, seller, and renter behaviour as we move deeper into 2026. 📍 Filmed at Bloc Residences in Downtown Vancouver.

    April 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley Pulse

    Q1 of 2026 has reflected a market still finding its footing, with stable interest rates, modest economic growth, and only temporary easing in inflation. Across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, buyer urgency remains limited, inventory levels are elevated, and overall activity continues to trail historical norms. Presale launches remain constrained with March activity well below the five-year average while absorption has softened and developers take a more cautious approach to timing, pricing, and product. In the resale market, inventory remains high, creating a competitive environment where pricing and timing are increasingly critical. At the same time, rental supply continues to build, introducing more choice for tenants and contributing to gradual softening in rates. In this month’s episode of The Pulse, MLA Canada’s Suzana Goncalves, Brittany Reimer, and Alan He unpack the latest trends across presale, resale, and rental markets and what they signal moving forward. 📍 Filmed at Amson Bloc in Panorama Ridge, Surrey LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: April 2026 Pulse Report: https://hubs.ly/Q04bdYx40 Advisory Services and Sample Reports: https://hubs.ly/Q047K5Mq0  Contact Advisory: advisory@mlacanada.com  Subscribe to MLA Newswire: https://hubs.ly/Q047K4bb0  PROJECTS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Stirling Block - Polygon Homes The Dunbar - Strand  Listen to our audio-only version on your favourite streaming platform:  Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/real-estate-intelligent/id1569434370 iHeart Radio: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gHqFpO5hB3QFraOsxBVFsSpotify: https://hubs.ly/Q03D1XTF0...  Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/2b71e8ac-b6dc-4033-8cf1-e5577534789f/Real-Estate-Intelligent MLA Canada | Real Estate Intelligent 100-856 Homer St., Vancouver BC @mlacanada | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | RedBook | WeChat

    March 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley Presale Pulse

    February continued to reflect a slower start to the year, with limited presale activity, elevated resale inventory, and a notable increase in rental supply across Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. While townhome projects remain the primary source of new presale supply, overall activity is well below historical norms, and buyers continue to take a more measured, end-user-driven approach. At the same time, rental completions are accelerating, creating more choice for tenants and increasing competition across the market. In this month’s Presale Pulse, Suzana Goncalves and Brittany Reimer are joined by Alan He, Director of Leasing at MLA Canada, as they unpack what February’s data is telling us across presale, resale, and rental markets. From ongoing economic uncertainty and constrained presale launches to elevated resale inventory, softening prices, and increasing rental supply, they explore how each segment of the market is evolving — and what it all signals as we move further into 2026. 📍 Filmed at Hillcrest in Abbotsford LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: March 2026 Presale Pulse Report: https://mlacanada.com/newsfeed/march-2026-the-pulse-report-a-market-in-holding-pattern-as-supply-remains-limited Advisory Services and Sample Reports: https://hubs.ly/Q03Yydj50 Contact Advisory: advisory@mlacanada.com Subscribe to MLA Newswire: https://hubs.ly/Q03Yydfk0 PROJECTS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Hillcrest – RED Developments Listen to our audio-only version on your favourite streaming platform:  Apple: https://hubs.ly/Q03Yy1sT0...  iHeart Radio: https://hubs.ly/Q03YxY_c0...  Spotify: https://hubs.ly/Q03Yy9p50...  Amazon Music: https://hubs.ly/Q03Yy7BM0...

    February 2026 Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley Presale Pulse

    January opened with steady interest rates, cautious buyers, and a continued buildup of inventory across presale, resale, and rental markets. While select end-user projects found traction, overall activity remained measured, with developers launching strategically and sellers competing aggressively on price. At the same time, rental supply continues to expand, adding another layer of complexity to the broader housing landscape. In this month’s Presale Pulse, Suzana Goncalves and Brittany Reimer unpack what the first month of 2026 is telling us. From stable monetary policy and cooling labour data to modest presale absorption, resale pricing adjustments, and the debut of our new Rental Pulse segment, they explore how each piece of the market is influencing the other — and what that interconnected view means as we head toward spring. 📍 Filmed at the Ortus Display Home in South Oak, Vancouver.
