Leduc Real Estate Market Update: October 2025

As we head into the final stretch of 2025, the Leduc real estate market is revealing signs of seasonal cooling while still reflecting the strength of earlier gains. Nestled just south of Edmonton, Leduc continues to be one of the most attractive suburban real estate markets in Alberta, offering affordable housing, convenient commutes, and vibrant neighbourhoods.

The October 2025 data suggests a slowing pace in monthly sales and pricing compared to previous months, but the year-to-date picture remains one of resilience and growth. With a significant increase in new listings and longer time on market, buyers are gaining more leverage—while sellers are having to adjust expectations to meet the realities of today’s more balanced market.

Let’s break down what’s happening in Leduc and how it impacts you as a buyer, seller, or investor.

Leduc New  MLS® Listings

🆕 Inventory Soars: More Choice, More Competition

The number of new listings jumped dramatically in October:

• 134 new listings, up 63.41% from October 2024
• Year-to-date total of 1106 listings, an 18.54% increase over last year

This influx of inventory is reshaping the market. Buyers now have more selection than at any point this year, giving them the luxury of time and options. For sellers, this means pricing, presentation, and preparation matter more than ever.

Homes that are staged well, professionally photographed, and competitively priced will always rise to the top—even in a more competitive landscape.

Average List Price

📌 Average Asking Price – October 2025

The average list price in October was $473,000, a modest 0.53% increase from the previous year. This suggests that while sellers are staying optimistic, they are being more realistic than earlier in the year. On a year-to-date basis, the average asking price in Leduc stands at $483,000, a 4.71% increase over 2024, showing that the city is maintaining steady long-term value appreciation. Sellers should watch closely for local price trends and work with a professional to ensure their home is positioned properly within current market expectations.

Leduc Home Sales

🛑 October Sales Slowed Sharply

Leduc recorded only 44 home sales in October 2025, a significant 31.25% decrease compared to October 2024. This marks the steepest monthly decline in transaction volume seen this year. Whether due to rising borrowing costs, economic uncertainty, or simple seasonal trends, the slowdown is notable.

That said, the year-to-date total of 720 sales is down just 6.01% from 2024, meaning the broader market has performed quite well throughout the year, especially in spring and summer. The October dip may be reflective of typical seasonal behaviour as buyers and sellers shift focus away from real estate toward holiday and school-year routines.

Average Sale Price

📌 Average Sale Price – October 2025

As noted above, Leduc’s average sale price in October fell to $400,000, down 8.34% year-over-year, signalling a moment of softness in the market. This could reflect either buyer fatigue, market rebalancing, or a higher concentration of sales in the entry-level segment. However, when we zoom out, the year-to-date average remains at $445,000, still up 5.50% from last year, showing that overall, Leduc homes have held value and appreciated steadily through 2025.

🔁 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Weakens Slightly

The average ask-to-sell ratio dipped to 0.985, meaning homes sold for 98.5% of asking price, down from 98.9% a year ago. This subtle drop reflects buyers becoming more cautious and gaining a bit more room to negotiate—particularly on homes that have been sitting longer or are priced above market expectations.

• Overpriced
• Poorly presented
• In less desirable locations

Still, a ratio above 98% suggests that most sellers are pricing correctly and that homes are still selling close to list value.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Homes Taking Longer to Sell

The average time to sell a home in Leduc has increased:

• 46 days on market in October (↑ 35.29% YoY)
• 43 days year-to-date, which is still slightly faster than 2024’s 45-day average

This suggests that homes are still moving, but it may take longer for the right buyer to emerge. Sellers should plan accordingly and not panic if their home doesn’t sell in the first two weeks.

🧠 What This Means for Buyers

If you’re considering purchasing a home in Leduc right now, this is arguably the most buyer-friendly moment of the year:

1. Abundant Inventory: More listings = more choice.
2. Negotiating Power: Slower sales and lower prices allow for more favourable terms.
3. Less Competition: With fewer buyers active in fall and winter, you’re less likely to face bidding wars.
4. Flexible Possession Dates: Many sellers are open to quick or delayed closes depending on your needs.

But don’t wait too long—well-priced homes still move quickly, and mortgage rate changes could impact affordability into 2026.

💼 What This Means for Sellers

Sellers in Leduc still have opportunities to succeed—but it will take more strategy:

1. Don’t Overprice: Buyers have more options, so pricing too high will hurt.
2. Stage & Market Effectively: Make sure your listing stands out with staging, great photos, and compelling descriptions.
3. Be Flexible: Negotiation and timing will be key in a slower market.
4. Work with an Expert: Chris Reid can help you develop a pricing strategy that positions your home to sell—without leaving money on the table.

🧭 Why Leduc Still Makes Sense

Even with a cooler month, Leduc remains a smart long-term move:

• Affordability: Better value than nearby Edmonton suburbs
• Commuter-Friendly: 15 minutes to the city, airport access, and regional highways
• Growing Communities: Family-focused neighbourhoods with parks, trails, and schools
• Development Ongoing: Builder activity continues in Black Stone, Robinson, Woodbend, and Meadowview

📊 YTD Comparison: 2025 vs 2024

🏁 Final Thoughts

October’s numbers confirm what we’ve been expecting: a softening seasonal market, but no signs of collapse. The fundamentals remain strong:

• YTD prices are still climbing
• Sales remain close to 2024 levels
• Buyers are returning—but with more caution

The Leduc market is shifting into a more balanced environment that favours thoughtful, strategic transactions.
