Abbotsford 37% Absorption Rate ( Sellers market)
Mission 38% Absorption Rate (Sellers market)
Langley 73% Absorption Rate ( Sellers market)
Absorption Rates Explained If we have 100 homes on the market and we consume (sell) 18-22 (18%-22%) of these homes per month that is a balanced market, fair for buyers and fair for sellers. If we sell under 18% it becomes a Buyers market with a lot of inventory for buyers to choose from. Sellers will have to make some price adjustments or do some minor updates such as increase curb appeal to attract a buyer. If we sell over 22% it becomes a Sellers market. Buyers will find themselves in multiple offer situations and potentially loose out on the house the are bidding on.
