Are we seeing another push to avoid rising rates? For the first time in quite a while 2017 and 2018 figures are not far off (10% apart).
I don't see a push, but the market is stabilizing for sure.

Speaking of pushes I am seeing a lot of developers trying to get their drawings in before the new BC Building Code takes effect December 10th so we might see a temp spike in building permits over the next few months

I thought it was up to each municipality whether or not they adopt the Step Code?

Good question, the new code says:
Energy Efficiency Standards
The BC Building Code 2018 references new building energy efficiency codes and standards. Some of the changes include: enhanced requirements for roofs, walls and fenestration; additional controls for lighting to reduce energy use; and new efficiency and rating requirements for some mechanical systems. New buildings meeting these requirements will improve their energy performance, and the new requirements contribute to the Province’s goal of requiring net-zero energy ready buildings in the BC Building Code by 2032

Do a lot of purchasers lift their conditions on weekends (or set a deadline on a weekend), or is that generally a weekday/business day thing?

95% would be a weekday for removing conditions.

Despite a lot of headwinds, the market seems to be holding in there. Sales will be around the 10-year average and inventory still very low compared to 10 year average.

At the current rate it looks like sales will be far short of November 2017.

It looks like numbers will end up in the low 400s. As I recall 2012 and 2013 were very slow and for the last few months prices have been pretty much flat with a slight decrease. Even with low inventory, we have definitely entered a balanced market

Supply will dictate what happens in the New Year.
Active listings have been steadily falling. September ended with a 2018 high of 2,646 and today it's sitting at 2,370 (a drop of 10% over six weeks).
That being said 2017 ended with 1,384 listings.

I think listings will drop this time of year as no wants to sell their houses as Christmas and the holidays approach. I'm certainly not interested in people parading thru my house as I get the lights and tree up, let alone parties, etc.

Active listings always fall in the fall. What would be extremely radical is if they weren’t

So here's the interesting thing. In 2015 and 2016 (and just like in 2018) listings dropped by 10-11% between the end of September and mid-November. Only in 2017 did they drop by 3%. In 2014 they dropped 12.5%.
Is there anything we can glean from last year's very stable listing environment over the first 1.5 months of fall compared to the drops we've been in years prior?

Rock bottom inventory last year means there wasn’t much there to drop.
Also weekly numbers aren’t great for comparisons since the dates move around. Sept 30 to Nov 14 is 3% drop but one week later it’s 6%
