Monthly Market Report
Every number a Coquitlam buyer or seller needs from the June 2026 GVR release — benchmark prices, sales, inventory and what it all means — updated monthly, no spin.
The honest answer in 30 seconds
Coquitlam's benchmark prices in June 2026: detached $1,649,000 (-4.8% YoY), townhouse $1,016,200 (-6.4%), apartment $653,900 (-7.6%). Sales-to-new-listings ratios — detached 54%, townhouse 60%, apartment 41% — put townhomes in the firmest segment and condos in the softest.

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.
Commentary
Three things stand out in the June 2026 data. First, the correction is broad but orderly: every property type is down year-over-year (detached -4.8%, townhouse -6.4%, apartment -7.6%), yet month-over-month moves are fractions of a percent — this is a slow drift, not a slide.
Second, the market is split by product type. Townhomes posted a 60% sales-to-new-listings ratio — genuinely competitive — while apartments sit at 41% with 273 new listings against 112 sales. Condo buyers have leverage and choice; townhome buyers should still expect competition on well-priced family homes.
Third, the detached median ($1,750,000) runs above the benchmark ($1,649,000) — larger and newer homes are transacting, which is typical when move-up families stay active while entry-level detached demand thins.

Buyer & seller playbook
You have more choice and more negotiating room than a year ago — especially in condos (41% ratio, prices -7.6% YoY). Get pre-approved, shortlist hard, and use days-on-market as your negotiation signal. Townhomes are the exception: come prepared to move quickly on good ones. More context: is now a good time to buy?
Pricing accuracy is everything in a -5.7% YoY market. Overprice and you chase the market down; price to current comparables and well-presented homes still attract multiple showings — townhomes especially (60% ratio). Start with a data-driven evaluation and read how to price your home.

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. Coquitlam figures are the municipal HPI benchmarks and MLS® transaction counts for the City of Coquitlam. 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
As of the June 2026 Greater Vancouver REALTORS® release, the benchmark (HPI) price for a detached home in Coquitlam is $1,649,000, down 4.8% from a year earlier. The median detached sale price in the same month was $1,750,000.
Down year-over-year across all property types as of June 2026: detached -4.8%, townhouse -6.4%, apartment -7.6%. Month-over-month changes are small (all under 1%), so the trend is a gradual drift rather than a sharp drop.
It depends on the property type. In June 2026, townhomes ran a 60% sales-to-new-listings ratio (competitive, favouring sellers of good product), detached 54% (balanced-to-firm), and apartments 41% (buyers have choice and leverage). Coquitlam's all-type sales-to-active ratio was 18.6% — balanced territory.
Monthly. Figures come directly from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® statistics package; this page reflects the June 2026 release published July 3, 2026, and the next update lands after the August 4, 2026 release.
The benchmark comes from the MLS® Home Price Index and represents a 'typical' home for the area with mix effects stripped out. Average (or median) prices move with which homes happened to sell that month — a few luxury sales can swing them. Benchmark is the better trend measure; median tells you what actually transacted.
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.
