Edmonton New MLS® Listings
🏘️ New Listings on the Rise
September brought 2,799 new listings to market in Edmonton, a 9.3% increase from August 2025 and a 3.7% increase year-over-year. This is good news for buyers who have been facing limited options over the past few months. An increase in inventory is helping to stabilize competition, especially in desirable neighbourhoods.
From a seller’s perspective, the rise in listings offers a window of opportunity before winter arrives. Homes listed in September and October tend to see strong interest from serious buyers looking to move before year-end.
Average List Price Edmonton Real Estate Market
💰 Average List Price
The average list price in Edmonton for September 2025 came in at $417,100, reflecting an increase of 4.2% compared to September 2024. This upward trend shows that sellers are becoming more confident in the market's value, and the appreciation in list price is supported by consistent sales volumes.
In particular, single-family homes and townhouses continue to drive list price increases, as demand for multi-bedroom, move-in-ready homes with modern amenities remains high.
Home Sales In The Edmonton Real Estate Market
🏡 Total Residential Sales
In September 2025, 1,825 residential properties were sold across the Greater Edmonton Area (GEA), which represents a 25.3% increase year-over-year compared to September 2024. Month-over-month, sales were slightly down by 8.4% from August 2025, which is typical for this time of year as families settle into the back-to-school routine and seasonal patterns begin to shift.
Despite this expected seasonal dip, sales volume has remained consistently stronger in 2025 than in 2024, signalling continued buyer demand and market confidence, especially in single-family homes and townhouses.
Edmonton Average Home Sale Price
💸 Average Sale Price
The average sale price across all property types in Edmonton reached $406,000 in September 2025. This figure represents a 3.2% year-over-year increase, and while slightly down from the August average, it's a healthy sign of sustainable price growth.
Let’s break it down by property type:
- Single-Family Detached Homes: $507,396 (↑ 4.1% year-over-year)
- Semi-Detached Homes: $386,185 (↑ 6.3% year-over-year)
- Row/Townhouses: $276,048 (↑ 9.4% year-over-year)
- Apartment Condominiums: $194,013 (↓ 1.4% year-over-year)
Townhouses and semi-detached homes have seen the strongest price appreciation, likely due to their affordability and popularity with first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors. Meanwhile, apartment condos remain the most affordable entry point into Edmonton’s housing market, even as prices flatten slightly.
📈 List-to-Sale Price Ratio
The list-to-sale price ratio held steady at 97.3% in September 2025, meaning homes are selling on average just 2.7% below their asking price. This is slightly improved from the 97.0% ratio reported in September 2024.
This ratio signals that there’s less room for negotiation than in previous years—a good sign for sellers—while still leaving space for buyers to negotiate on terms or closing dates.
Edmonton Real Estate Market -Average Days
⏳ Days on Market
In September, Edmonton homes spent an average of 42 days on the market, compared to 48 days in September 2024—a reduction of 12.5% year-over-year. This reflects faster sales and stronger buyer urgency, especially for well-presented and accurately priced properties.
Lower days on market are generally considered a sign of a healthy, competitive real estate environment. Buyers are acting more decisively, and sellers who price correctly are reaping the rewards.
🧱 Inventory & Market Balance
At the end of September, Edmonton had 6,885 active listings, which represents a month-over-month increase of 2.8%. The market remains relatively balanced, with about 3.8 months of supply. This means that if no new listings were added, it would take 3.8 months to sell the current inventory based on current demand.
A balanced market benefits both buyers and sellers. Buyers have a bit more time to shop and negotiate, while sellers still see solid returns when homes are staged and priced competitively.
🔍 What This Means for Buyers
If you’re a home buyer in Edmonton, the market remains competitive but fair. Interest rates remain steady, and with increasing inventory levels, you may have more options this fall than earlier in the year.
However, don’t wait too long—especially in the under $500,000 price range, homes are still moving fast. Townhouses and semi-detached properties in newer communities like Secord, Chappelle, and McConachie are particularly popular with first-time buyers and young families.
Consider getting pre-approved and working with an experienced agent (like me!) to gain access to new listings quickly and act confidently when the right property comes up.
💼 What This Means for Sellers
Sellers continue to benefit from strong market fundamentals. With low days on market and a strong list-to-sale ratio, this fall could be the ideal time to list your home.
- Staging, photography, and accurate pricing are crucial in achieving top dollar.
- Homes under $600,000 remain in highest demand, especially those that are turnkey or recently renovated.
- Detached homes in established neighbourhoods like Glenora, Capilano, and Terwillegar Towne continue to outperform in terms of days on market and sale price.

📣 Final Thoughts: Steady Growth, Strong Fundamentals
September 2025 reflects a confident, stable real estate market in Edmonton. With continued price growth, faster sales, and rising inventory, both buyers and sellers have opportunities to succeed heading into the fall season.
Whether you're moving up, downsizing, relocating to Alberta, or investing in new construction, the numbers show that Edmonton remains one of Canada’s most affordable, high-value cities to live and invest in.
