  • News Release for IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Home prices remain steady, buyers and sellers become more comfortable operating in today’s market VANCOUVER, BC – June 2, 2020 – Metro Vancouver* home prices have remained steady since provincial health officials implemented physical distancing requirements in March. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that the MLS® Home Price Index1 composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver today is $1,028,400. This is virtually unchanged from April 2020, a 1.4 per cent increase over the last three months, and a 2.9 per cent increase compared to May 2019. "Home prices have been stable during the COVID-19 period," Colette Gerber, REBGV Chair said. "While we’re seeing a variety of long-term projections for the market, it's critical to understand the facts and trends as they emerge." Residential home sales in the region totalled 1,485 in May 2020, a 43.7 per cent decrease from the 2,638 sales recorded in May 2019 and a 33.9 per cent increase from the 1,109 homes sold in April 2020. Last month’s sales were 54.4 per cent below the 10-year May sales average. "Home sale and listing activity is down compared to typical, long-term levels and up compared to the activity we saw in April 2020," Gerber said. "Home buyers and sellers are adapting today, becoming more comfortable operating with the physical distancing requirements that are in place in the market." There were 3,684 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in May 2020.

  • News Release for IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Demand for homes continues to outpace supply in Metro Vancouver VANCOUVER, BC – April 4, 2017 – A shortage of residential property listings coupled with strong demand, particularly for condos and townhomes, continued to impact Metro Vancouver’s housing market in March. Residential property sales in the region totalled 3,579 in March 2017, a decrease of 30.8 per cent from the 5,173 sales recorded in record-breaking March 2016 and an increase of 47.6 per cent compared to February 2017 when 2,425 homes sold. Last month’s sales were 7.9 per cent above the 10-year sales average for the month. “While demand in March was below the record high of last year, we saw demand increase month-to-month for condos and townhomes,” Jill Oudil, Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) president said. “Sellers still seem reluctant to put their homes on the market, making for stiff competition among home buyers.” New listings for detached, attached and apartment properties in Metro Vancouver totalled 4,762 in March 2017. This represents a decrease of 24.1 per cent compared to the 6,278 units listed in March 2016 and a 29.9 per cent increase compared to February 2017 when 3,666 properties were listed. This is the lowest number of new listings in March since 2009. The total number of properties currently listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 7,586, a 3.1 per cent increase compared to March 2016 (7,358) and a 0.1 per cent decrease compared to February 2017 (7,594).

    News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Home buyer demand stays below historical averages in August VANCOUVER, BC – September 5, 2018 – The Metro Vancouver1 housing market continues to experience reduced demand across all housing types. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential home sales in the region totalled 1,929 in August 2018, a 36.6 per cent decrease from the 3,043 sales recorded in August 2017, and a 6.8 per cent decline compared to July 2018 when 2,070 homes sold. Last month’s sales were 25.2 per cent below the 10-year August sales average. “Home buyers have been less active in recent months and we’re beginning to see prices edge down for all housing types as a result,” Phil Moore, REBGV president said. “Buyers today have more listings to choose from and face less competition than we’ve seen in our market in recent years.” There were 3,881 detached, attached and apartment homes newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in August 2018. This represents an 8.6 per cent decrease compared to the 4,245 homes listed in August 2017 and an 18.6 per cent decrease compared to July 2018 when 4,770 homes were listed.

    B1 Celebrating the past building the future Burnaby School District 41 Centennial Anniversary 1906 - 2006 What’s Inside • Our Early Years • Our Growth Years • Our Leadership • Our Current Years • Our Future Glancing Back . Quality public education has been a community expectation since the first meeting of the Burnaby School Board in 1906. The legacy of quality education and lifelong learning in Burnaby, which began with the amalgamation of early one-room schoolhouses and continues today in 48 schools and a number of district programs, makes us all proud of our vibrant neighbourhood schools, diverse programs and services and, most importantly, solid student achievement. Join us as we celebrate and reflect upon our first 100 years. The 2006 – 2008 Board of School Trustees Back row, left to right: Ron Burton (Chair), Larry Hayes, Tony Coccia, Richard Lee Front row, left to right: Kathy Corrigan (Vice-Chair), Diana Mumford, Helen Chang B2 Celebrating The Burnaby School District’s history is linked to that of the City of Burnaby. Burnaby was incorporated on September 22, 1892 with a population of 300 and the first Burnaby school was built two years later, in 1894. “It came from the same need to take care of the community and take care of the children,” said Jim Wolf, City of Burnaby historian. Before 1894, children living in Burnaby either attended off to school in Vancouver or New Westminster, but that became unpalatable for some Burnaby residents. “To let your child go with a pail lunch and then send them off on muddy roads, where they were threatened by bears and cougars – there was a need to send them to school closer to home,” said Wolf.
