Leduc New MLS® Listings
Leduc is experiencing fewer new listings, with only 95 properties coming onto the market in March 2025. This 6.86% decrease could indicate that homeowners are hesitant to sell, possibly due to the rising prices and uncertainty in the market. A lower number of new listings could contribute to price hikes, as demand outstrips available inventory.
Average List Price
One of the standout trends in Leduc is the sharp increase in average home prices. The average sale price for March 2025 reached $468,000, marking a 16.52% rise compared to March 2024. This growth in prices is in line with a general trend of price increases in surrounding markets and could be attributed to factors like demand outpacing supply and rising construction costs.
Leduc Home Sales
Despite a strong average price increase, the number of properties sold in Leduc has seen a significant decline. March 2025 saw only 64 properties sold, a drop of nearly 24% from the previous year. This suggests a slowdown in the market, potentially due to higher asking prices or fewer buyers active in the market.
Average Sale Price
Looking at year-to-date figures, Leduc’s average sale price has also risen by 9.06% to $437,000, compared to the same period in 2024. This consistent growth highlights Leduc’s desirability as a suburban community close to Edmonton.
Average Days on Market
Homes in Leduc are selling faster than last year, with an average of 48 days on the market. This is a 14.29% decrease in time compared to 2024, suggesting that buyers are eager to secure properties as soon as they are listed, despite the high prices. This is a sign of strong demand and competitive conditions in the market.
What This Means for Buyers and Sellers in Leduc
For buyers, the market presents a challenging landscape. With fewer properties available and rising prices, finding a good deal may require patience and a readiness to act quickly. The average sale price has increased significantly over the past year, so prospective buyers should be prepared for higher costs, even if they’re looking at homes that may have been more affordable in the past.
On the other hand, sellers in Leduc may find this to be a favourable time to list. The rising average prices and decreasing days on the market indicate that buyers are still actively looking. If you are considering selling, the competitive atmosphere could lead to a quicker sale, potentially at or above your asking price. However, pricing your property correctly will be key to attracting serious buyers in this fluctuating market.
Factors Driving Leduc’s Real Estate Market
Several factors are influencing the Leduc market in 2025:
- Location: Leduc is ideally located near Edmonton, making it an attractive option for those looking for suburban living with access to city amenities.
- Economic Growth: As the economy continues to stabilize post-pandemic, real estate in areas like Leduc is benefiting from a steady influx of people moving to the region for work and lifestyle opportunities.
- Interest Rates: With interest rates still a key consideration for many buyers, those looking for financing may need to plan carefully. High interest rates can impact purchasing power, potentially reducing the number of qualified buyers in the market.

In the coming months, Leduc’s real estate market is likely to remain dynamic, with fluctuating prices depending on demand and inventory levels. While it’s hard to predict precisely, the current trend suggests that average prices will continue to rise, though slower than the sharp increases observed in 2024 and early 2025.
Buyers and sellers alike should stay informed on market conditions and be prepared to make quick decisions when the right opportunity arises. As always, consulting with a knowledgeable real estate professional is essential to navigating the complexities of the market.
