Monthly Market Report
The verified Coquitlam numbers from the June 2026 GVR release — and a Burke Mountain resident's read on what they mean up the mountain.
The honest answer in 30 seconds
Burke Mountain sits inside Coquitlam's June 2026 numbers: detached benchmark $1,649,000 (-4.8% YoY), townhouse $1,016,200 (-6.4%). Burke's housing stock is much newer than the city average, and its townhome supply is dominated by family-sized product — the segment running Coquitlam's firmest ratio (60% sales-to-new-listings). Translation: well-priced Burke family homes are still competitive even in a softer city-wide market.
Data, honestly labelled
How to read this honestly: Greater Vancouver REALTORS® publishes benchmark data at the municipal level, not for individual neighbourhoods. The verified numbers below are for the City of Coquitlam — Burke Mountain's parent market. The neighbourhood commentary that follows is Craig's local read of how Burke Mountain typically trades against those city-wide figures; it is qualitative, not a published sub-area index.
Source: Greater Vancouver REALTORS® June 2026 monthly release (published July 3, 2026). Benchmark = MLS® Home Price Index for Coquitlam. Sales-to-new-listings ratio computed from the same release.
Regional context — Greater Vancouver, June 2026
2,390 residential sales region-wide (+9.6% vs. a year ago) · 17,017 active listings (-3.1% YoY) · composite benchmark $1,099,100 (-6.0% YoY) · sales-to-active ratio 14.6%. Below ~12% sustained, prices tend to face downward pressure; 12–20% is balanced; above 20% favours sellers.
Craig's local view
Craig lives on Burke Mountain — this is the read from inside. Burke skews newer than almost anywhere in the city: most of the housing stock is post-2010, and the active new-construction pipeline (Foothills, Culmena, Heartwood, Riley Park and others) keeps adding family townhomes and detached product. Newer stock plus family demand is why Burke listings often trade differently than the city-wide averages suggest.
The townhome story matters most here. Coquitlam townhomes ran a 60% sales-to-new-listings ratio in June 2026 — the firmest segment in the city — and Burke is where much of that family-townhome demand concentrates, driven by schools (Smiling Creek catchment above all) and new-build supply.

Buyer & seller playbook
City-wide softness (-5.7% YoY) gives you more room than the last few years, but don't expect Burke's best family townhomes and view lots to sit — the 60% townhome ratio is concentrated in exactly this kind of product. Tour the development guide first so you know presale vs resale trade-offs.
Burke sellers benefit from the newest stock in the city, but you're also competing with builders' presale offices. Price against current resale comparables, not 2022 memories — and lead with what new construction can't offer: established landscaping, finished basements, no GST. Get an evaluation.

Where these numbers come from. Every figure on this page is taken directly from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® (GVR) June 2026 statistics release, published July 3, 2026. Burke Mountain is reported within municipal-level GVR statistics; neighbourhood commentary is qualitative local knowledge, clearly separated from published data. Benchmark prices use the MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) — a “typical home” measure that strips out mix effects, which is why it differs from average or median sale prices.
Update cadence. This report is refreshed every month when GVR publishes new data. Next expected update: August 4, 2026 (July 2026 data).

Straight answers
No — Greater Vancouver REALTORS® publishes benchmarks at the municipal level, so Burke Mountain is reported inside Coquitlam's numbers. This report gives you the verified Coquitlam data plus a neighbourhood-level read from a REALTOR® who lives on Burke Mountain.
There's no separate published index, so no one can claim that with a number. What the June 2026 data does show: Coquitlam's firmest segment is family townhomes (60% sales-to-new-listings), and Burke concentrates exactly that product. Newer stock and school-driven demand are real, persistent advantages — but individual results depend on the specific home and pricing.
Coquitlam's benchmarks in June 2026 — townhouse $1,016,200, detached $1,649,000 — bracket most Burke product, with newer detached and view homes trading above the city benchmark and estate product well above it. For live listings see Burke Mountain homes for sale.

Every community, every month
Round out the first-year cost picture.
I have spent the last 47+ years living in Coquitlam, 9+ years on Burke Mountain, helping move-up buyers and sellers get from where they are to where they want to be — without the panic of owning two homes at once or selling under value. I work the Tri-Cities every day: Burke Mountain, Westwood Plateau, Heritage Mountain, and the rest of Coquitlam’s move-up neighbourhoods.
