Starting the evening of May 28, GVR courses will be available through BCREA Access, making it easier to find, register, and complete your PDP requirements.

More courses in one place

BCREA Access brings all courses into one place, including both GVR and BCREA offerings. With improved filtering, you can quickly find courses by date, topic, or format.

Why are we moving our courses to BCREA Access?

The underlying technology behind our current Courses and Events Calendar is outdated. Moving to BCREA’s more modern system will help us improve the registration process for both you and our staff.

This is also the first step towards our goal of creating a unified provincial learning system, which will give you access to any course provided by real estate boards and associations in BC.

What to expect

On May 28, course registration will be unavailable for a period of time as our team works to transfer our courses from the old system to BCREA Access.

You will still be able to access courses you've already registered for on May 28.

After May 28, when you visit the Course Catalogue or Calendar pages, you’ll be directed to BCREA Access. You can also bookmark it for quicker access.

There will also be a few differences in course registration and attendance, for example:

• Registration will be self-serve and completed online. Charge to account, and bill to Brokerage options will no longer be available

• You’ll be able to access your course materials through BCREA Access

• Zoom links will be available one hour before class

Initially, PDP hours may take longer to appear on your account, so we recommend you plan ahead and avoid any last-minute issues.

Event registration still available on GVR site

While our regular PDP courses will be moving to the new platform, event registration will still be on our GVR member website.

SURREY, BC – The Fraser Valley market showed early signs of a spring thaw in February, with sales increasing over January, but continuing to trail typical levels for this time of year.

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 843 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, a 36 per cent increase from January, but 38 per cent below the ten-year seasonal average. New listings declined nine per cent in February to 2,796, suggesting some sellers are choosing to wait amid competitive inventory levels, and may be positioning their homes for the peak of the spring market.

Overall inventory remains above seasonal norms for the Fraser Valley, with 8,344 active listings, up eight per cent from January and 51 per cent above the 10-year seasonal average.

The Fraser Valley remains firmly in a buyer’s market, with an overall sales-to-active listings ratio of ten per cent in February. A balanced market is typically defined by a ratio between 12 and 20 per cent.

Across the Fraser Valley in February, the average number of days to sell a single-family detached home was 47 days, while for a condo it was 45 days. Townhomes took, on average, 39 days to sell.

• FVREB Stats Package for February 2026

As January winter storms swept across Central Canada, home sales fell 5.8% while new listings rose 7.3%. CREA’s Senior Economist Shaun Cathcart suggested the slowdown was likely weather-related, adding 2026 will be defined by pent-up first-time buyer demand.
