Beautiful British Columbia: A desirable housing market, tougher affordability.

British Columbia’s housing market warmed up this summer, with provincial home sales up by 1.6% in July 2025, year over year.

The BC centre with the highest sales increase was Vancouver Island, up by 13.1%, followed by Kootenay, Kelowna, and Kamloops with 9.4%, 9.2% and 9.1%, respectively. Other centres with notable increases are Northern BC (5.7%) and Victoria (4.9%). On the decline side, Chilliwack experienced a sales drop of 11%, followed by Fraser Valley (-5%) and GVA (-2.4%). 

BC home prices are still recovering from the market slowdown, with the average home price dropping by 2.4% year-over-year to $961,305. The decline was led by Kelowna, the GVA and Victoria, with price drops of 4%, 3.8%, and 1.1%. The rest of the BC centres showed home price growth from 10.2% to 0.2%.

New listings significantly grew in Kamloops (+13.2%) and Victoria (+2.2%), while Vancouver Island and Kootenay experienced the most pronounced slowdowns at around -6.0%. Other areas saw drops of about 5.5% to 0.9%.

BC is a balanced market provincially, with a 45% SNLR (sales-to-new-listings ratio) — a 2% rise from the same month last year. Fraser Valley remained a strong buyer’s market at 36% SNLR, while Northern BC and Kootenay were still holding court in a seller’s market, with higher SNLRs of 68% and 67%.

Housing starts across BC dipped by 15%, month over month, with Abbotsford recording a surge of 147% and Victoria increasing by 29%. However, year-to-date, housing starts have dropped for some centres, ranging from -71% in Nanaimo to -5% in Vancouver. 

Home buyers remain cautious amid U.S. tariff turmoil. Yet, more are coming off the sidelines to take advantage of deals or are growing impatient, waiting to see where interest rates and the economy may be going.
