False Creek by the numbers

What False Creek homes actually sold for

Every False Creek sale on the MLS® from November 9, 2025 to November 9, 2026, closed or firm and waiting to complete. That's 202 homes. The figures are medians, the middle sale, so one big outlier can't skew them.

Townhouse

$843,500

Median sale price, 22 sales

Median 38 days on the market. Sold for a median 96.5% of asking, and 3 of the 22 went at or over asking.

Condo

$799,450

Median sale price, 178 sales

Median 17 days on the market. Sold for a median 97.3% of asking, and 33 of the 178 went at or over asking.

Too few sales for a fair median: detached houses (2). Josh can pull the individual sales for you.

The first two weeks matter most

98.4%

of the original asking price, for the 89 homes that sold within 14 days

95.2%

of the original asking price, for the 73 homes that took longer than 30 days

On a $799,000 condo, that gap is roughly $26,000. Pricing it right on day one usually beats chasing the market down. Check your False Creek home's price

What daily life in False Creek looks like

Homes

Two very different halves: False Creek South, between the Granville and Cambie bridges, has 1970s and 1980s townhomes, co-ops and condos, some of them leasehold; Olympic Village, between Cambie and Main, is newer towers and mid-rises.

Waterfront

The seawall runs the full length, with 10 marinas around the creek and Granville Island at the west end. Swimming in the creek itself isn't always safe, especially at the east end.

Shops and everyday errands

Granville Island's market is at the west end, and Olympic Village has shops and restaurants around its plaza.

Getting around

Olympic Village Station on the Canada Line is one stop from downtown, and ferries cross the creek to Yaletown and Granville Island.

Schools

Which schools serve False Creek?

Schools and programs

Of the 180 False Creek homes sold in the last 12 months, 100 were in the Simon Fraser Elementary catchment, 49 in False Creek's and 31 in Henry Hudson's.

For secondary, 100 were in the Eric Hamber Secondary catchment and 79 in Kitsilano Secondary's.

These catchments come from the Vancouver School Board's 2026 catchment boundaries, matched to the homes sold here in the last 12 months. Catchment lines can split a street and popular schools can fill up, so confirm any address with the Vancouver School Board.

Client stories

The story behind the sale

Real False Creek clients, told with their first names. Every move has its own problem to solve; here is how Josh solved theirs.

135 letters to find one off-market condo

Judy and Todd wanted one particular False Creek building, and nothing suitable was for sale. Josh pulled the strata plan, picked out every unit with the right layout, exposure, and outdoor space, and wrote to all 135 owners. Seven replied, and one sold to them privately. The building had a $175,000 special levy for envelope work, which the seller paid, and they bought for $1,150,000. Josh sold their townhome nearby in four days, even with the buyer and seller on the other sides representing themselves.
