Published on November 8, 2016 in News by Eva

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recently published the statistics for the Fraser Valley real estate market for October 2016.

Sales were up slightly and inventory hit a 10 year low.

Sales activity was healthy in October, especially in the townhome and apartment categories. With prices beginning to level-off, it appears that buyers are becoming more motivated to explore the Valley’s available inventory.
