INFOGRAPHICS: October 2024 VREB Victoria Market Reports

Victoria market exceeds expectations but remains balanced

A total of 654 properties sold in the Victoria Real Estate Board region this October, 60.7 per cent more than the 407 properties sold in October 2023 and a 14.5 per cent increase from September 2024. Sales of condominiums were up 32.6 per cent from October 2023 with 187 units sold. Sales of single family homes increased by 76.2 per cent from October 2023 with 340 sold.

“Sales did increase notably over last year, but it’s important to include some context,” said 2024 Victoria Real Estate Board Chair-Elect Dirk VanderWal. “October 2023 saw the fewest sales in that month since 2008, which distorts a year-over-year comparison; in fact, last month’s sales count was almost exactly on the ten-year average for the month. With that context, although we’ve certainly seen a notable increase in sales month over month, this does signal a return to a more average market for this time of year. The number of homes available on the market has remained relatively consistent, which has also created the benefit of a more balanced market for buyers and sellers, even with the increase in sales numbers.”

There were 3,161 active listings for sale on the Victoria Real Estate Board Multiple Listing Service® at the end of October 2024, a decrease of 6 per cent compared to the previous month of September and a 14.7 per cent increase from the 2,756 active listings for sale at the end of October 2023.
