Where to buy in Vancouver
Vancouver has more newly built ground-oriented homes on the market than any other city in the region, and the widest internal spread. Choosing a Vancouver neighbourhood is really choosing between two markets that share a name.

How Vancouver breaks down
The east side, which means Renfrew, Fraser Street, Knight, Killarney, Collingwood, Hastings Sunrise, and Grandview-Woodland, is where the duplex rules did the most work. Half duplexes dominate, the streets are established, and the price per square foot sits well below the west side.
The west side, meaning Kitsilano, Dunbar, Point Grey, Kerrisdale, Arbutus, and Shaughnessy, is the same product type at two to three times the land cost. The homes are not meaningfully larger. You are buying the address.
The Cambie corridor is the exception to both. Because the corridor plan allowed assembled sites along the Canada Line, what got built there is townhouse complexes rather than half duplexes, which is why it is the only part of Vancouver where a new ground-oriented home routinely sits within a walk of a station.
Across all of it, the lots are narrow and the homes are the smallest of any city in this dataset. Buyers moving in from the suburbs consistently underestimate how much a 33 foot lot changes daily life.
Rapid transit
Rapid transit is close but generally beyond an easy walk from most homes here. Expect to drive, cycle, or take a bus to the station.

Distances are measured in a straight line from each listing to the nearest SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express station, using coordinates published by TransLink. A straight line is not a walk: a station 400 m away across a rail cut, a river, or a highway can be a twenty minute journey. Check the specific address on a map before treating any of these numbers as a commute.

Common questions
What does a newly built home cost in Vancouver?
The median list price across 547 active newly built ground-oriented listings is $1,698,000, at $1,111 per square foot for a median 1,542 sq ft. That is 36% above the regional median per square foot.
Which Vancouver neighbourhood gives the best value?
On price per square foot the eastern and southeastern neighbourhoods lead, with Killarney standing out because its wider lots produce larger homes than the rest of the east side. The price tables on this hub rank every area with enough inventory to measure.
Where in Vancouver can you walk to SkyTrain from a new townhouse?
Mainly the Cambie corridor, because that is where policy allowed the density that produced walkable-to-station ground-oriented housing. Elsewhere in the city, new half duplexes are on residential streets served by buses, with station access varying sharply by address.
Why is the west side so much more expensive than the east side?
The homes are not meaningfully larger. West side neighbourhoods like Kitsilano, Dunbar, Point Grey, Kerrisdale, Arbutus, and Shaughnessy carry the same product type as the east side at two to three times the land cost, so the premium is almost entirely the address rather than the building.
Is Vancouver mostly half duplexes or townhouses?
Mostly half duplexes, produced by rebuilding single family lots one at a time under the city's duplex rules. The Cambie corridor is the main exception, where a corridor plan allowed assembled sites and townhouse complexes instead.
Are Vancouver's newly built homes smaller than the suburbs?
Yes, across all of Vancouver's neighbourhoods, the lots are narrow and the homes are the smallest of any city in this dataset. Buyers moving in from the suburbs consistently underestimate how much a standard 33 foot lot changes daily life.
What is the cheapest way to buy new construction inside Vancouver?
The east side and southeast neighbourhoods, particularly areas like Renfrew, Fraser Street, and Killarney, carry the lowest price per square foot inside city limits. The tables on this hub rank every measured neighbourhood so you can compare the exact gap.
How current are these numbers?
