Benchmark prices, sales and inventory for Port Coquitlam from the June 2026 GVR release — and what the Tri-Cities' value market is really doing.
The honest answer in 30 seconds
Port Coquitlam in June 2026: detached benchmark $1,322,600 (-4.2% YoY), townhouse $877,300 (-7.3%), apartment $582,600 (-8.1%). PoCo remains the Tri-Cities' value play — the only city of the three with a detached benchmark under $1.4M — and its townhomes (62% sales-to-new-listings) are the busiest segment. Detached supply is heavy: 64 new listings against 10 sales.

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
PoCo is still the affordability door into the Tri-Cities. A detached benchmark of $1,322,600 sits roughly $325K under Coquitlam and $625K under Port Moody — that gap is the whole PoCo story, and it's why first-time detached buyers and young families keep landing here.
The detached shelf is crowded right now: 64 new listings against 10 sales (16%) is heavy supply. Sellers are competing; buyers can be patient and selective. Townhomes tell the opposite story at 62% — family-sized three-bedroom product remains in demand.
Condos are the softest segment (-8.1% YoY, the biggest decline in the Tri-Cities) — which cuts both ways: harder on sellers, an opening for buyers priced out a year ago. Area context: moving to Port Coquitlam and PoCo homes for sale.
Buyer & seller playbook
Detached buyers: this is your market — heavy supply, motivated sellers, and the lowest detached benchmark in the Tri-Cities. Condo buyers: prices are -8.1% off last year; negotiate from the data, not the asking price.
Detached sellers face real competition (64 new listings this month) — sharp pricing and presentation are non-negotiable. Townhome sellers hold the best hand in PoCo. Either way, start with an honest evaluation against live comparables.

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. Port Coquitlam figures are the municipal HPI benchmarks and MLS® transaction counts for the City of Port 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.

Monthly, from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® statistics release. This page reflects June 2026 data published July 3, 2026; the next update follows the August 4, 2026 release.
Apartment benchmarks fell 8.1% year-over-year — the largest decline in the Tri-Cities — amid ample new supply region-wide and stretched entry-level affordability. The flip side: entry buyers get their best selection in years.
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.
