It can be difficult to navigate through these price increases to find the best value in the top locations, so James and Denny have broken down some of their favourite locations for you. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where are we Seeing the Most Activity?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people are moving further East into Langley, Abbotsford, Maple Ridge, and Pitt Meadows for more space and affordability. Previously, these cities were seen as too far out for most buyers. However, they have quickly become the new hot spots due to lower prices and larger property sizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.ca\/map#LatitudeMax=49.35320&amp;LongitudeMax=-122.40826&amp;LatitudeMin=49.16677&amp;LongitudeMin=-122.67176&amp;view=list&amp;Sort=6-D&amp;PGeoIds=g30_c2bbhpfm&amp;GeoName=Maple%20Ridge%2C%20BC&amp;PropertyTypeGroupID=1&amp;PropertySearchTypeId=1&amp;TransactionTypeId=2&amp;BuildingTypeId=1&amp;ConstructionStyleId=3&amp;Currency=CAD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maple Ridge<\/a><\/strong> (including some areas of Pitt Meadows):<br>&#8211;

In the last two months, we have already seen a 15% increase in single-family home prices. &nbsp;It is important to note that this does not increase on a gradual scale, so it will not necessarily continue growing at the same rate. Nevertheless, we do believe that it will continue to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the value of detached homes increasing seemingly overnight as more houses sell, it can be difficult to know exactly what your offer should be. Take a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.garbuttdumas.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/REBGV-Stats-Pkg-February-2021.pdf\">Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver February 2021 stats<\/a> for more information on recent single-family home prices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Takeaway Message:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It may be challenging to find value in the prices of detached homes right now, but they will most likely seem like a deal when you look back at these numbers in a few months\u2019 time! Unless there is a big influx of houses going on sale, which is quite unlikely at this time, the market will continue to become more competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cautious suggestion for those thinking of entering the real estate market: even if you are stretching yourself and spending more than what you had originally planned, it is better to do that now than wait 6 months when real estate value has increased. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:14px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Do you have questions regarding upsizing into a larger home, the appropriate price of a listing, and the growing appeal of moving out of the city and into the surrounding areas?
