Living in Cambie: What the Listings Say

Cambie splits evenly at the top. Condos and townhouses each hold 28 listings, 32. 9 percent apiece of the 85 homes on the market. Detached houses account for 22 listings, or 25. 9 percent, and half duplexes add another 6 at 7. 1 percent. One other home rounds out the mix. The median year built is 2020, so much of what you see here is recent construction. New builds make up 41. 7 percent of active listings. That shows in the finishes and the strata fees, which run a median of 534 dollars. Living areas are compact, with a median of 1,313 square feet. Prices span a wide range, from 569,000 dollars at the low end to 19,800,000 dollars at the top, with a median list price of 1,699,900 dollars.

A median of 534 dollars a month in strata fees buys you into buildings that are mostly newer, and that number shapes your carrying costs as much as the mortgage does. At 1,313 square feet, the typical home here is compact. Think two or three bedrooms rather than sprawl. Three-bedroom listings are the most common, at 32 homes with a median of 1,768,500 dollars, so a lot of buyers land on that layout. Two-bedroom homes number 22 and sit at a median of 1,214,500 dollars. What that means day to day is a building with shared upkeep, an elevator, and a fee that covers the common areas so you are not managing a roof yourself. Median price per square foot runs 1,224 dollars, which tells you space costs a premium in Cambie. You pay for location and for recent construction. The trade is square footage for a lower-maintenance building and a monthly fee you can budget around. For many buyers here, that trade makes sense. Compact space, predictable costs, newer finishes.

Start with the price band that fits your budget, then match it to a home type. Twenty-seven listings sit between 1. 5 and 2. 5 million dollars, and another 25 sit over 2. 5 million, so the middle and top of the market are where most of the inventory lives. If you want a condo, 28 are available at a median of 1,054,000 dollars. If you need three bedrooms, 32 listings give you room to compare. Twenty new listings came on in the last 30 days, so the pool refreshes. Pick your band. Book viewings across two or three home types before you commit. Cambie rewards buyers who know their number going in.
