What kind of homes are in South Vancouver?

South Vancouver is a detached-house neighbourhood. 76% of the homes on the market are single-family houses on their own lot, so the supply is set by how many owners decide to sell in a given season.

The next largest group is half duplexes, at 15% of what is listed.

Construction dates are spread out. The median home for sale dates to 2000, with most of the market falling between 1947 and 2024, so condition and updates vary a lot from listing to listing.

24% of the current listings were built in the last five years, so new-construction inventory is a real option here rather than an exception.

What do you actually get for the money?

76% of the homes for sale have four or more bedrooms, with the 5-bedroom plan the most common of all. Family-sized space is the norm rather than the premium option.

A typical listing here offers about 2,267 sq ft of living space and 4 bathrooms.

Where a lot is reported, the median is 4,102 sq ft, which is what sets the ceiling on additions, laneway homes and future redevelopment.

39% of the listings report a finished basement, which in this city usually means either extra family space or a mortgage helper.

Enclosed parking is standard: 71% of listings include a garage.

Strata or freehold?

22% of the active listings are strata-titled and the rest are freehold, so the ownership question is a live one in South Vancouver rather than settled by the neighbourhood.

Across the 5 listings that disclose one, the median strata fee is $351 per month. Read it against what it covers before comparing two buildings on price alone.
