The Vancouver West real estate market entered 2026 with measured activity and increasing inventory compared to the same time last year. According to the latest report from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, overall residential sales across Greater Vancouver remain below January 2025 levels, reflecting continued adjustment in buyer demand. However, new listings have risen, giving buyers more options across detached homes, townhomes, and condominiums throughout Vancouver West.

Activity remained strongest in Kitsilano and Kerrisdale, while detached inventory increased in Point Grey and Dunbar.

Detached properties in Vancouver West — particularly in higher price brackets — continue to experience selective buyer activity. Well-priced homes are selling, but buyers remain cautious and price-sensitive. The attached and condominium segments have shown relatively steadier momentum, supported by downsizers, local professionals, and long-term investors seeking prime West Side locations such as Kitsilano, Point Grey, and Kerrisdale. Benchmark prices have adjusted moderately year-over-year, while month-over-month trends indicate stabilization following the seasonal slowdown in December.

Compared to West Vancouver’s luxury-focused adjustments and North Vancouver’s lifestyle-driven demand, Vancouver West remains a premium but diverse market, where pricing strategy and property presentation are critical. With inventory levels higher than early 2025, buyers currently have improved negotiating leverage, while sellers must align with current market conditions to achieve successful results.
