Vancouver Condo Sales Fall, Project Cancellations Increase
Connect CRE

AI Article Summary
Condo sales in Vancouver have plummeted by 37% from mid-2022 to early 2025, primarily due to increased interest rates impacting affordability and investor returns. The decline in sales has resulted in a surplus of unsold units and a drop in resale prices. This has also led to a significant rise in project cancellations, with a tenfold increase in canceled units reported from 2022 to 2024. Although there may be short-term benefits for buyers, the long-term effects are expected to exacerbate housing shortages.
