The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver reported that in May home sales rose 15.7 per cent from the previous year. The composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver reached $1,188,000, up 1.3 per cent from the previous month.

A report from Keefe, Bruyette & Woodst, released Tuesday showed that over the past four months, relative to trough levels in January 2023, home prices rose eight per cent in Toronto and seven per cent in Vancouver.
