Edmonton New Single Family Home Listings

🏘️ Inventory Expansion: More Choices for Buyers

Perhaps one of the most promising trends for buyers in June 2025 is the 18.64% surge in new listings. A total of 1,690 single-family homes came onto the market this month, offering buyers more variety and reducing the pressure that comes with limited inventory.

The year-to-date figures also tell a positive story, with 8,550 new listings introduced in 2025 so far, up 10.21% from last year.

An increase in new listings not only gives buyers more selection but also helps balance the market, easing competition and potentially slowing price acceleration in the coming months.

Average Asking Price

💰 Prices Are Climbing: Seller-Friendly Environment

The average asking price in June was $615,000, up 2.37% year-over-year.

For sellers, this upward trajectory presents an excellent opportunity to capitalize on growing home values.

For buyers, it’s a signal that purchasing sooner rather than later could be a wise move before prices potentially climb further.

Edmonton Single Family Home Sales

📈 Growth in Sales: A Positive Turn for June

One of the most notable statistics this month is the 2.67% increase in the number of homes sold compared to June 2024. A total of 1,040 single-family homes sold in the city, signalling steady buyer demand.

This is a positive sign for sellers as it indicates a healthy level of interest and transactional activity. Year-to-date, however, sales are still down by 6.77%, with 5,180 homes sold so far in 2025 compared to 5,550 by this time last year.

The slight uptick in June sales suggests that buyer confidence may be rebounding after a slower spring, potentially driven by stabilized interest rates and an increase in market supply.

Average Single Family Home Sale Price

The average sale price hit $557,000, a significant 5.46% increase compared to June 2024.

When we zoom out and look at the year-to-date average sale price, it’s sitting at $562,000, a strong 8.78% gain over 2024. This continued price growth suggests that Edmonton’s single-family home market remains a competitive landscape.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Negotiation Room is Returning

The ask-to-sell ratio dropped to 0.993, down 0.70% from June 2024. This means homes are selling at approximately 99.3% of their asking price, compared to nearly full asking prices earlier this year.

This slight dip suggests that buyers are regaining some negotiating power. Sellers should be aware that pricing their home appropriately from the start is key to attracting serious buyers quickly.

Days on MLS®

⏳ Days on Market: Properties Taking Slightly Longer to Sell

The average days on market for single-family homes in Edmonton increased slightly to 41 days, up 2.50% compared to June 2024.

While homes are still selling relatively quickly, this minor increase suggests that buyers may have a bit more breathing room than in previous months.

Year-to-date, homes are selling in 47 days on average, which is still almost two weeks faster than last year, when the average was 58 days.

What Does This Mean for Buyers?

• You have more time to make decisions.
• There is less urgency to overbid on properties.
• A balanced approach can secure you a quality home without overpaying.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Negotiation Room is Returning

The ask-to-sell ratio dropped to 0.993, down 0.70% from June 2024. This means homes are selling at approximately 99.3% of their asking price, compared to nearly full asking prices earlier this year.

This slight dip suggests that buyers are regaining some negotiating power. Sellers should be aware that pricing their home appropriately from the start is key to attracting serious buyers quickly.

📅 Year-to-Date Trends: A Mixed Market with Upward Pricing Pressure

While June itself showed an increase in sales and listings, the year-to-date picture reveals a market still in recovery.

• Sales YTD: 5,180 homes sold (down 6.77% year-over-year)
• New Listings YTD: 8,550 homes listed (up 10.21% year-over-year)
• Average Sale Price YTD: $562,000 (up 8.78% year-over-year)

This indicates that even though fewer homes have sold in total compared to 2024, prices are continuing to rise due to consistent demand and improving inventory levels.

🛒 What This Means for Buyers

The June 2025 numbers offer buyers both opportunities and challenges:

✅ Opportunities:

• More inventory to choose from.
• Less urgency than the frenzied pace seen in 2024.
• Negotiating power is slowly returning.

⚠️ Challenges:

• Prices are still climbing, reducing long-term affordability.
• Quality homes in desirable neighbourhoods are still moving quickly.

Buyer Tips:

• Work with an experienced REALTOR® to monitor new listings daily.
• Get pre-approved so you can act swiftly when you find the right property.
• Look beyond headline prices—negotiate on possession dates, inclusions, and contingencies to maximize your purchase.

💼 What This Means for Sellers

Sellers continue to benefit from a strong pricing environment but should be prepared to:

✅ Advantages:

• Achieve close to asking price if the home is properly marketed.
• Take advantage of summer buyer activity.
• Sell faster than the historical Edmonton average.

⚠️ Considerations:

• Buyers have more options and may negotiate more aggressively.
• Homes that aren’t priced or presented properly may linger longer.

Seller Tips:

• Stage your home to stand out.
• Price accurately based on current comparable sales.
• Use professional photography and modern marketing tactics to ensure your home gets the attention it deserves.
