Market Context

What's Driving the Market

Buyer sentiment: FVREB Chair Ishaq Ismail summed up the current climate: "Buyer urgency has been notably absent from the Fraser Valley market for some time now. With inventory remaining high and competition subdued, buyers know they don't have to rush." Langley's roughly 5.1 months of supply is consistent with a market that continues to favour buyers, particularly in the apartment segment.

Affordability improving: FVREB Interim CEO Anthony Boone noted that "the Fraser Valley has remained one of the Lower Mainland's brightest spots for improving affordability... qualified buyers are finding opportunities that simply weren't available a few years ago." Lower townhouse and apartment benchmarks, combined with the Bank of Canada's overnight rate holding at 2.25%, have improved qualification math for many Langley buyers — though the mortgage stress test still requires qualifying at the greater of the contract rate + 2% or 5.25%. See our 2026 OSFI stress test guide for details.

Detached resilience: Langley's detached segment was the only category to post a month-over-month gain in July, hinting that the higher end of the market may be stabilizing even as townhouses and condos continue to soften.
