Vancouver, BC – March 11, 2025. The British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) reports that 4,947 residential unit sales were recorded in Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) Systems in February 2025, down 9.7 per cent from February 2024. The average MLS® residential price in BC in February 2025 was down 2.4 per cent at $964,349 compared to $987,811 in February 2024.
The total sales dollar volume was $4.8 billion, an 11.8 per cent decrease from the same time the previous year. BC MLS® unit sales were 28 per cent lower than the ten-year February average.
“After several months of growing momentum, market activity was hampered in February by the uncertainty surrounding tariffs,” said BCREA Chief Economist Brendon Ogmundson. “Apprehension from prospective buyers will continue amidst this unfortunate trade war but may be somewhat tempered by lower interest rates on the horizon.
Year-to-date, BC residential sales dollar volume is down 4.5 per cent to $8.8 billion, compared with the same period in 2024. Residential unit sales are down 2.8 per cent year-over-year at 9,175 units, while the average MLS® residential price is also down 1.8 per cent to $958,366.
