🏠 Coquitlam Detached Market: 3 Month Snapshot (Mar–May 2025)

Over the last three months, detached homes in Coquitlam have shown subtle but significant shifts. With rising inventory and softening prices, buyers may now find more breathing room than they’ve had in years.

Let's break it down and see what’s really happening

📊 Key Market Numbers

🔎 Month-over-Month Highlights:

• Sales stayed relatively stable: down slightly in April, then rebounded in May.

• Inventory grew each month: up 24.2% from March to May.

• Benchmark Price dropped gradually from $1.814M to $1.778M—a 2% decrease over 3 months.

• Days on Market increased modestly, suggesting slower turnover.

📉 Market Outlook

The detached segment is trending deeper into a buyer’s market. The sales-to-active ratio reflects this shift:

• March: 10.9%

• April: 9.0%

• May: 9.8%

A ratio under 12% is considered a buyer’s market, and Coquitlam’s detached housing has stayed under that line for all three months.

this could mean:

• Buyers may be in a strong position to negotiate on price or terms.

• Sellers will need sharp pricing, excellent presentation, and patience.

💡 Tip for Buyers

Leverage your timing—slow markets favour preparation.
With rising inventory and softened prices, this is an excellent window to:

• Negotiate price reductions or repairs

• Ask for extended subjects or closing terms

• Compare options instead of rushing offers

Bonus tip: If you find a motivated seller, don’t hesitate to go in strong with your terms. Now is your time to buy with strategy, not pressure.
