What did homes sell for in Canada?

Home sale prices in Canada, from Government of British Columbia. An official figure as of 31 July 2026.

Homes transferred in British Columbia had an average declared fair market value of CA$916,192 over May 2026 to July 2026 (3 months), from 27849 residential property transfers. It is an average, not a median, of values declared on Property Transfer Tax returns; the mix of houses, strata (condo) units and acreages is not split out.

How fresh the source is
Monthly files updated through the year, a few weeks to a few months behind; collected into our price library every day, each answer states its period
Limits
The value is the fair market value declared on the Property Transfer Tax return, which usually follows the price paid but is not a receipt. It is an average (total value divided by number of transfers), not a median, so a few very expensive homes pull it up; BC publishes no residential median or percentiles. All residential kinds are mixed (houses, strata units, acreages); the file does not split the value by kind. Figures are for municipalities and rural areas as BC groups them (for example 'Quesnel Rural' is separate from 'City of Quesnel'). We publish nothing from fewer than 5 transfers. Foreign-buyer figures in the file are not used.
Rule
A figure built from records is shown only when at least 5 records sit behind it; official statistics are shown as such, with their reference period. See how we earn trust and the method.
