“As seen in recent
months, prices continue to trend upward, with lack of supply and high
demand for housing,” said Narinder Bains, Chair of the Fraser Valley Real
Estate Board. “What we’re seeing is sales increasing, with buyers
entering the market despite current financial implications of anticipated
rate hikes.”
