Days on market for multiplex homes in Vancouver and Burnaby
There is no published benchmark for multiplex days on market. Greater Vancouver REALTORS publishes its MLS® Home Price Index for detached, townhouse, and apartment only, so any figure you see attributed to the board for multiplexes specifically was not produced by the board.
So we compute it ourselves, from the active listings in our own MLS® mirror, and we show the method. The panel below is the live result.
Vancouver standing inventory
All ground-oriented listings in Vancouver, as of August 25, 2026
29% of active inventory
Counted from active MLS® listings in our own mirror of the feed. Days listed is measured from each listing's contract date to today, because the BC feed does not populate a days-on-market field. This describes inventory still standing on the market, so it reads higher than a sold-side figure would. Sold and closed data is not shown here: it is VOW data and is available only to registered users. There is no published multiplex benchmark from Greater Vancouver REALTORS, so nothing on this page is attributed to the board. This inventory is held across 62 listing brokerages.

How these numbers are produced
We count currently active listings in Vancouver and Burnaby whose format matches each category, and for each one we take the number of days between the listing contract date and today. The median is the middle value of that set. The over-90-days count is simply how many of those active listings passed ninety days.
Two honest limits. First, this measures listings that have not sold yet, so it describes standing inventory rather than how long a completed sale took. A listing that sells quickly leaves the set, which means the median here runs higher than a true sold-side figure would. Second, sold and closed data is VOW data under the Rules of Cooperation and is not shown publicly, so we cannot put a sold-side figure on this page even though we would prefer to.
We would rather show you a number with a stated method and a known limit than a cleaner number we cannot defend.
What the over-90-days count is actually telling you
It is the size of the problem in your own market. Every listing in that count is a home someone expected to sell sooner, held by an agent who is having an uncomfortable conversation with a seller about it. If your listing is in that group, you are not an outlier and the format is not broken.
Reading it against your own listing
Take your listing's days on market and compare it against the median for its own category and neighbourhood, not against the city-wide figure. A duplex in Renfrew and a townhome in Kerrisdale are not the same market. The neighbourhood pages linked below carry the per-area figures.
