January 2025 closed with the Greater Vancouver composite HPI benchmark at $1.17M, 0.6% higher than the same month a year earlier. The HPI is CREA and the boards' quality-adjusted typical-home benchmark — it filters out the noise that comes from mix shifts (more high-end sales pulling the average up, more entry-level pulling it down).
Month-over-month the benchmark rose 0.1%. 1,460 sales were reported against 10,063 active listings on the books.
The sales-to-active ratio sat at 14.5%, putting Greater Vancouver in balanced market territory by board convention (≤12% buyers', 12–20% balanced, ≥20% sellers').
