highlights • For the fourth consecutive month, MLS sales in the Vancouver Region fell, most recently to 5,250 in July 2021. The 12% month-over-month drop was higher than the typical 9% seasonal decline in sales between June and July. That said, the month’s sales tally was 2% higher than in July 2020, and 18% higher than the past-decade July average. • The marginal 2% year-over-year increase in sales in July was driven entirely by condos, with last month’s sales up 22% versus last year. Detached and townhome sales created drag on the overall sales count, with transactions of these home types sitting 10 and 9 percent below last year’s levels, respectively.
