Edmonton Real Estate Market Update – January 2026

January often sets the tone for the year ahead — and 2026 is off to a fascinating start.

Here are the key numbers from the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton January report:

Sold Properties: 803 (↓ 32.46% year-over-year)
Average Asking Price: $482,000 (↓ 0.38%)
Average Sale Price: $429,000 (↑ 1.19%)
New Listings: 1,880 (↑ 3.02%)
Days on Market: 92 days (↑ 29.58%)
Ask-to-Sell Ratio: 0.973 (↓ 1.27%)

While sales volume saw a significant drop compared to January 2025, pricing remains surprisingly stable — and even slightly stronger on the sold side.

Let’s break this down.

Below Graphs Are Interactive.

Edmonton New MLS® Listings

📈 New Listings: Supply Creeping Up

There were 1,880 new listings in January, a modest 3.02% increase year-over-year.

More listings + fewer sales = rising inventory pressure.

This gives buyers:

More choice
More time
More leverage in negotiation

It also means sellers need to:

Price accurately
Stage properly
Market strategically

The “list it and it will sell instantly” phase is clearly behind us.

Average List Price Edmonton Real Estate Market

💲 Average Asking Price: Cooling Slightly, But Stable

The average list price in Edmonton in December was $417,290, down 3.9% from November’s $434,006. This dip is a normal market rhythm as sellers become more motivated to close deals before year-end, especially after a long fall market.

Over the course of the year, however, asking prices have shown moderate appreciation—up 2.9% compared to 2024 YTD, signalling that seller confidence remains healthy despite small monthly fluctuations.

Home Sales In The Edmonton Real Estate Market

🏠 Home Sales: A Slower Start to 2026

In January 2026, 803 residential properties sold in Edmonton — down from 1,189 in January 2025.

That’s a 32.46% decrease year-over-year.

This is a notable shift and reflects:

Buyers adjusting to interest rate expectations
Seasonal slowdown after a strong Q4
Increased selectivity among purchasers
More negotiation happening in the market

However, January is historically one of the slower months of the year. The real story will unfold in February and March as spring activity ramps up.

Edmonton Average Home Sale Price

💰 Average Sale Price: Still Climbing

Despite lower sales volume, the average sale price increased to $429,000, up 1.19% from January 2025.

This is important.

When sales drop but prices rise, it suggests:

Sellers are not panicking
Buyers are still paying fair value
Inventory is not overwhelming the market
The underlying market fundamentals remain strong

Edmonton continues to demonstrate stability compared to many larger Canadian cities that experienced more volatile corrections.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: More Negotiation

The average ask-to-sell ratio dropped to 0.973, down from 0.985 last January.

That means homes are selling at about 97.3% of list price, compared to 98.5% last year.

This widening gap confirms:

Buyers are negotiating
Conditions are slightly shifting toward balance
Overpriced homes are sitting longer

The Edmonton market is not crashing — it is recalibrating.

Edmonton Real Estate Market -Average Days

⏳ Days on Market: A Big Jump

One of the most significant changes in January was the increase in days on market, which rose to 92 days, up 29.58% from 71 days last year.

That’s a substantial increase.

Longer DOM typically signals:

Buyers taking more time
More competition among listings
Negotiations becoming more common

However, this does not mean homes aren’t selling — it simply means pricing strategy matters more than ever.

📊 Year-to-Date Comparison Table (January Only)

Since January is the first month of the year, YTD equals monthly totals:

Metric	2026 YTD	2025 YTD	% Change
Sold Properties	803	1,189	↓ 32.46%
Average Asking Price	$482,000	$484,000	↓ 0.38%
Average Sale Price	$429,000	$424,000	↑ 1.19%
New Listings	1,880	1,820	↑ 3.02%
Days on Market	92	71	↑ 29.58%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	0.973	0.985	↓ 1.27%

🔎 What Does This Mean for Buyers?

If you’re buying in Edmonton right now:

✔️ You have more leverage
✔️ You have more time to decide
✔️ You can negotiate price and conditions
✔️ You are not competing in 10-offer bidding wars

But here’s the catch:

Prices are still rising modestly.

That means waiting may not save you money long term — it may just give you slightly better negotiating terms today.

This is a strategic buyer’s window.

🏠 What Does This Mean for Sellers?

If you’re selling in early 2026:

Pricing correctly is critical
Professional marketing matters more than ever
Homes that show poorly will sit
Buyers expect value

However, serious buyers are still active.

Well-priced homes are still selling.

And with spring approaching, momentum can shift quickly.

📈 Where Is the Edmonton Market Heading?

Based on these January numbers, here’s what I anticipate:

February and March will show sales recovery.
Days on market will decline as spring activity increases.
Prices will remain stable with gradual appreciation.
Inventory will rise slightly before tightening in late spring.

Edmonton continues to benefit from:

Interprovincial migration
Relative affordability
Economic resilience
Strong rental demand

The fundamentals remain intact.

🎯 Strategic Advice for Q1 2026

Buyers:

Lock in pre-approval early
Negotiate confidently
Don’t wait too long if you find the right property

Sellers:

Prepare now for spring
Consider listing before March competition rises
Invest in staging and professional photography

🏁 Final Thoughts

January 2026 did not signal a market crash.

It signaled a market reset.

Sales volume dropped, yes — but prices held steady.

Inventory rose modestly — but not excessively.

Negotiation increased — but not dramatically.

Edmonton is moving toward a balanced, sustainable market.

And that’s healthy.

Spruce Grove Real Estate: Market Trends and Investment Opportunities • 11 February 2026

Spruce Grove Real Estate Market: January 2026 Update

by Christina Reid

Spruce Grove Real Estate Market Update January 2026

A new year is officially underway, and the Spruce Grove real estate market is starting 2026 with a clear shift in pace compared to the same time last year. While sales activity has slowed and homes are taking longer to sell, pricing remains strong — particularly on the sale side — signalling that buyer demand still exists, just with more caution.

If you’re planning to buy or sell in Spruce Grove this year, here’s what January’s numbers tell us and what it means for your strategy moving forward.

📊 January 2026 Market Snapshot

According to the January 2026 Local Market Update

Sold Properties: 55 (↓ 17.91% from January 2025)
Average Asking Price: $525,000 (↓ 5.43%)
New Listings: 116 (↓ 2.52%)
Days on Market: 83 days (↑ 38.33%)
Average Sale Price: $493,000 (↑ 7.07%)
Ask-to-Sell Ratio: 0.982 (↓ 1.70%)

Because January is the first month of the year, the YTD numbers mirror the monthly figures.

The below graphs are interactive

New MLS® Listing Count

📦 New Listings: Inventory Holding Steady

There were 116 new listings in January 2026, a slight 2.52% decrease from last year.

This tells us that while buyer activity slowed more noticeably, seller activity only dipped slightly. As a result, inventory is building a bit compared to the pace of sales — which contributes to longer days on market and more negotiation flexibility.

For buyers, this creates opportunity.
For sellers, this means pricing and presentation are critical.

Average Listing Price in Spruce Grove

💰 Average Asking Price: Seller Expectations Adjusting

The average asking price in January 2026 was $525,000, down 5.43% from January 2025.

This is a meaningful shift. Sellers appear to be adjusting expectations compared to last year’s winter market. After several years of aggressive pricing growth, we’re seeing a more realistic approach to list pricing — particularly in the detached and move-up home segments.

Strategic pricing early in the year can be a powerful move, especially before spring competition increases.

Spruce Grove Home Sales

🏠 Sales Activity: Slower Start to the Year

Spruce Grove recorded 55 home sales in January 2026, compared to 67 in January 2025 — a 17.91% decrease.

This type of slowdown isn’t unusual for January, as many buyers pause activity over the holidays and early winter. However, the sharper year-over-year drop suggests buyers are being more selective, likely due to affordability considerations and interest rate sensitivity.

The key takeaway? Demand hasn’t disappeared — it’s just more measured.

Real Estate Market Statistics Spruce Grove Average Home Sale Price

📈 Average Sale Price: Buyers Still Paying for Value

Despite lower asking prices and slower sales volume, the average sale price actually increased to $493,000, up 7.07% from January 2025.

This is an important nuance.

While sellers are listing lower than last year on average, the homes that are selling are commanding strong prices. This suggests:

Well-presented homes are still moving.
Buyers are willing to pay for quality.
The market isn’t declining — it’s becoming more selective.

This is a healthy correction dynamic, not a crash.

⚖️ Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Negotiation Is Back

The average ask-to-sell ratio was 0.982, down from 0.999 last January.

That means homes are selling at approximately 98.2% of list price, compared to nearly full list price last year.

This confirms what the DOM increase already suggested — negotiation leverage is shifting slightly toward buyers.

But remember: this is still a relatively balanced ratio. We’re not seeing dramatic discounting — just a return to normal negotiation patterns.

Days on Market Until Sale

⏳ Days on Market: Buyers Taking Their Time

Homes took an average of 83 days to sell in January, compared to 60 days last year — a 38.33% increase.

This is the most significant shift in the January report.

Longer days on market tell us:

Buyers are taking more time to evaluate.
Multiple-offer situations are less common.
Price reductions may become more frequent if homes are not positioned correctly.

For sellers, patience and strategic pricing are key.
For buyers, this is breathing room.

🧭 What This Means for Buyers in Spruce Grove

If you’re considering buying in early 2026, this may be your window.

Advantages Right Now:

✔ More time to view homes
✔ Less competition
✔ Negotiation opportunities
✔ Sellers adjusting expectations

With sale prices still strong year-over-year, buying now could position you well before spring demand returns.

💡 What This Means for Sellers

The January market tells us one thing clearly:

Preparation matters more than ever.

To succeed in early 2026:

Price based on current data — not 2024 peak pricing.
Stage and market professionally.
Be prepared for negotiation.
Understand that days on market are longer.

The homes that are priced right are still achieving strong sale prices — as shown by the 7.07% increase in average sale price year-over-year

If you’re considering listing this winter or preparing for spring, let’s build a strategy now.

📞 (780) 717-5267

🔮 What to Watch Moving Into Spring 2026

Based on January’s numbers, here’s what we’re watching:

Will sales volume rebound in February and March?
Will days on market compress as activity increases?
Will average asking prices stabilize or adjust further?

January often sets the tone for Q1 — but the spring market will ultimately determine 2026’s trajectory.

📊 January 2026 vs January 2025 Comparison

Metric	Jan 2026	Jan 2025	% Change
Sold Properties	55	67	↓ 17.91%
Average Asking Price	$525,000	$555,000	↓ 5.43%
Average Sale Price	$493,000	$460,000	↑ 7.07%
New Listings	116	119	↓ 2.52%
Days on Market	83	60	↑ 38.33%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	0.982	0.999	↓ 1.70%

Source: January 2026 Local Market Update

🏡 Why Spruce Grove Remains Strong Long-Term

Even with a slower January:

Sale prices are still up.
Inventory remains healthy.
The community continues to attract families and commuters.
Value compared to Edmonton remains compelling.

Neighbourhoods like Prescott, Greenbury, Fenwyck, and Harvest Ridge continue to perform well due to schools, amenities, and newer housing stock.

Stony Plain Real Estate: Market Trends and Investment Opportunities • 11 February 2026

Stony Plain Real Estate Market Update | January 2026

by Christina Reid

Stony Plain Real Estate Market January 2026

Stony Plain Real Estate Market Update: January 2026

The new year has begun with a fresh chapter for the Stony Plain real estate market, and the early numbers from January 2026 highlight both new challenges and continued opportunities. After a busy close to 2025, January brought a slowdown in sales activity, typical for winter, but a noticeable surge in home values — signalling the strength and stability of this desirable Parkland County community.

Let’s explore how Stony Plain performed in January 2026, what the data tells us about buyer and seller behaviour, and how these trends might shape the year ahead.

📊 January 2026 Market Snapshot

Metric	January 2026	January 2025	% Change
Sold Properties	20	37	-45.95%
Average Asking Price	$458,000	$460,000	-0.58%
New Listings	36	42	-14.29%
Average Days on Market	98 days	57 days	+71.93%
Average Sale Price	$437,000	$333,000	+31.21%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	99.3%	98.4%	+0.87%

Below Graphs Are Interactive

Stony Plain Real Estate - New MLS® Listings

🔹 New Listings Decline Modestly

A total of 36 new listings entered the Stony Plain market in January, down 14.29% from the 42 listings recorded in January 2025This reduction in new supply contributes to the tight inventory conditions that have defined the local market for much of the past year. With fewer new homes available, competition for well-priced listings remains steady, keeping pricing firm even during slower months.

Average Asking Price of Homes in Stony Plain

🔹 Asking Prices Hold Steady

The average asking price in January 2026 was $458,000, almost identical to last year’s $460,000, showing a slight 0.58% decrease

This minimal change suggests sellers are pricing homes realistically and in line with market expectations. The strong sale-to-list ratio (99.3%) further confirms that homes are selling close to their asking prices — a sign of a well-balanced and efficient market.

Stony Plain Home Sales

🔹 Home Sales Down Sharply After a Busy 2025

The number of homes sold in January dropped to 20, compared to 37 in January 2025 — a 45.95% decrease

. This decline reflects both seasonal trends and the continued low inventory environment that limits available options for buyers.

While fewer transactions occurred, it’s important to note that most January buyers are serious movers — those relocating for work, downsizing, or capitalizing on early-year opportunities before spring competition begins. As such, the smaller sales volume doesn’t signal weakness, but rather seasonal normalization after a strong finish to last year.

Stony Plain Real Estate Market- Average Home Sale Price

🔹 Average Sale Price Surges 31.21%

Perhaps the most striking figure this month is the 31.21% increase in average sale price, climbing from $333,000 to $437,000

This jump can be attributed to several factors:

Low inventory has pushed buyers to compete for well-priced homes.
More higher-end homes entered the market, pulling the average price upward.
Sustained demand from Edmonton commuters and move-up buyers continued to influence pricing.

The trend demonstrates that Stony Plain continues to be a market of value growth and opportunity, offering a balance of affordability and long-term equity potential.

🔹 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Strengthens

The average ask-to-sell ratio rose to 99.3%, a 0.87% improvement compared to January 2025’s 98.4%.

This figure means that sellers, on average, are achieving nearly full price for their listings, reflecting tight negotiation margins and a market that favours accurately priced homes.

Stony Plain Average Days on Market

🔹 Days on Market Rise — Homes Taking Longer to Sell

The average days on market climbed to 98 days, up 71.93% from 57 days in January 2025.

This increase reflects both the seasonal slowdown and buyers taking more time to make decisions in a higher-priced environment. It also suggests that while prices are strong, sellers should expect slightly longer wait times during winter months — though that’s expected to shorten as spring approaches.

🏘️ What This Means for Buyers

If you’re planning to buy in Stony Plain this year, January’s numbers offer several insights:

Fewer Listings, More Competition:
Inventory is still limited, so buyers need to be prepared to act quickly when suitable homes hit the market.
Higher Prices Reflect Strong Value:
With average sale prices up over 30%, it’s clear that Stony Plain remains a desirable market — and waiting could mean paying more later.
Longer Days on Market Create Negotiating Windows:
The extended average selling time can work to your advantage, providing opportunities for negotiation if a home has been listed for several weeks.
Get Ready for Spring:
Historically, spring brings more listings and renewed competition. Getting pre-approved and connecting with a REALTOR® early can help you move faster when inventory rises.

🏡 What This Means for Sellers

For sellers, the January 2026 report is full of good news — despite lower sales, prices are up and homes are selling close to list price.

Strong Price Growth:
A 31% increase year-over-year shows that demand is sustaining home values.
Limited Competition:
With fewer listings, sellers have an opportunity to stand out in the market and capture buyer attention.
Expect Longer Sale Times:
While prices are solid, homes are taking longer to sell — meaning patience and strong marketing are key.
Preparation Pays Off:
Buyers are cautious in early winter. Proper staging, professional photography, and accurate pricing can make your listing stand out immediately.

🌟 Why Buyers and Sellers Alike Choose Stony Plain

Stony Plain continues to attract buyers for its combination of affordability, location, and lifestyle. Just a short drive west of Edmonton, this thriving community offers:

Diverse housing options — from starter homes to modern new builds.
Family-oriented amenities, schools, and recreation.
Strong community appeal, hosting year-round local events.
Consistent price appreciation and stable market conditions.

For those looking to relocate or invest, Stony Plain remains one of the most reliable and balanced real estate markets in the Edmonton area.

🔮 Looking Ahead: What to Expect in Early 2026

As winter transitions into spring, several key themes are likely to shape Stony Plain’s real estate performance:

More Listings Expected:
Inventory typically rises by March, offering buyers greater choice but also introducing more competition among sellers.
Sustained Price Growth:
The surge in January prices is likely to balance out, but values should remain higher year-over-year as buyer demand stays consistent.
Interest Rate Stability:
If lending conditions remain steady, market activity will likely accelerate heading into the spring market.
Continued Seller Confidence:
With sale-to-list ratios near 100%, sellers can expect strong returns when listings are priced strategically.

Overall, Stony Plain begins 2026 from a position of stability and confidence — poised for a healthy spring market.

📊 Year-over-Year Comparison: January 2026 vs. January 2025

Metric	2026	2025	% Change
Sold Properties	20	37	-45.95%
Average Asking Price	$458,000	$460,000	-0.58%
New Listings	36	42	-14.29%
Average Days on Market	98 days	57 days	+71.93%
Average Sale Price	$437,000	$333,000	+31.21%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	99.3%	98.4%	+0.87%

Summary:
While January 2026 began with fewer transactions and longer selling times, home prices are significantly stronger — and sellers continue to achieve near-list offers. Stony Plain remains a market defined by resilience, stability, and upward value trends, setting the stage for another successful year.

Rohit Homes Edmonton Communities • 2 February 2026

Before You Visit a Rohit Homes Showhome — Read This First

by Christina Reid

Before You Visit a Rohit Homes Showhome — Read This First

If you’re planning to visit a Rohit Homes showhome, there’s one thing most buyers don’t realize until it’s too late:

Your first visit can affect your options, representation, and flexibility — even if you’re “just looking.”

This page explains what to know before stepping into a showhome, so you can explore confidently without accidentally limiting your choices.

🚪 WHY THIS MATTERS (PLAIN LANGUAGE)

Many builders, including Rohit Homes, require buyer registration on first visit. That registration helps the builder track interest — but it can also determine:

Whether you can bring your own Realtor later
Who represents you during the purchase
How smoothly the process unfolds

Most buyers walk into a showhome assuming they’re only gathering information. In reality, that first interaction can quietly set things in motion.

❗ COMMON BUYER MISCONCEPTIONS

Let’s clear up a few things buyers often misunderstand:

“I’m just looking, so registration doesn’t matter.”
It often does.

“I can decide on a Realtor later.”
Not always — timing matters.

“Using my own Realtor will cost more.”
In most cases, it doesn’t.

“The showhome agent works for me.”
They represent the builder’s interests.

None of this is bad — but it’s important to understand before you walk in.

🛡️ WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOUR FIRST SHOWHOME VISIT

If you’re considering Rohit Homes, the safest approach is simple:

✅ Talk to a Realtor before your first visit

A quick conversation beforehand can help you:

Understand registration rules
Keep your options open
Decide when it’s okay to visit alone vs not
Avoid misunderstandings later

This doesn’t commit you to anything — it simply gives you clarity.

🤝 WORKING WITH A REALTOR DOESN’T MEAN PRESSURE

A good new-construction Realtor:

Explains the process in advance
Helps you compare communities and models
Coordinates with builder teams
Protects your interests throughout the purchase

It’s about guidance, not control.

🏘️ IF YOU’VE ALREADY VISITED A SHOWHOME

If you’ve already been to a Rohit Homes showhome, don’t panic.

In many cases:

You may still have options
Representation may still be possible
Next steps can be clarified

The key is understanding where you stand now before moving forward.

If you’re planning to visit a Rohit Homes showhome — or have already visited one — I’m happy to walk you through what to know before your next step.

You’ll get:

Clear answers
No pressure
Honest guidance

Request pre-showhome guidance and I’ll help you understand how the process works before your visit — so you can move forward with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions About Visiting a Rohit Homes Showhome

❓ Do I need a Realtor before visiting a Rohit Homes showhome?

You are not required to have a Realtor to visit a Rohit Homes showhome. However, speaking with a Realtor before your first visit can help you understand registration rules, protect your options, and decide the best way to explore without limiting your flexibility.

❓ What happens when I register at a Rohit Homes showhome?

Registration allows the builder to track interest in their homes and communities. In some cases, registration timing can affect representation and next steps. It’s helpful to understand how this works before your first visit so there are no surprises later.

❓ Can I bring my own Realtor to a Rohit Homes showhome?

In many situations, buyers are able to bring their own Realtor to a Rohit Homes showhome, particularly when arrangements are made before the initial visit. Registration requirements and representation details are confirmed directly with the builder.

❓ Does using a Realtor cost more when buying a Rohit home?

In most new-construction purchases, buyers do not pay extra to have their own Realtor. Commission structures are determined by the builder and are typically handled as part of the transaction.

❓ What if I already visited a Rohit Homes showhome without a Realtor?

If you’ve already visited a showhome, you may still have options. The best next step is to clarify where you stand before moving forward, as eligibility and representation can vary based on timing and registration.

❓ Is the showhome agent representing me as the buyer?

Showhome representatives work on behalf of the builder. While they are a valuable source of information about the homes and communities, buyers who want independent guidance often choose to work with their own Realtor throughout the process.

❓ Why should I talk to someone before visiting a showhome?

A short conversation beforehand can help you understand how the process works, what questions to ask, and how to keep your options open while you explore. It’s about clarity — not commitment.

Registration requirements, representation rules, and commission structures are determined by the builder and may vary by home and timing. Information provided here is for general guidance only and does not replace confirmation at the time of visit or offer.

Landon Model by Rohit Homes | New Duplex Home in Keswick

by Christina Reid

Landon front-attached duplex exterior in Keswick, Edmonton with dual front garages Rohit Homes

The Landon Model by Rohit Homes: Front-Attached Duplex Designed for Modern Living in Keswick

Southwest Edmonton’s Keswick community is known for stylish architectural streetscapes, family-friendly design, and thoughtful planning — and the Landon floor plan fits into this neighbourhood beautifully. Unlike the traditional duplex model seen in many parts of Edmonton, the Landon has been designed with a distinctive front-drive garage on both sides, giving it the elevated look and feel of a detached home while still offering paired-home affordability.

This carefully crafted design makes the Landon an ideal option for buyers who want the convenience of a front-attached garage, the curb appeal of a full front elevation, and the lower price point of a duplex.

What Makes the Landon Floor Plan Different?

The Landon isn’t a typical duplex. Its layout and exterior design are intentionally created to deliver:

✔ Dual Front-Attached Garages

Each side of the duplex features its own full front-drive garage — a rarity in Edmonton market paired homes.
This gives homeowners:

Direct parking and home entry
Potential separate entrance for future basement suite
Improved winter convenience
A wider, more premium-looking façade
Better separation between units

✔ A Spacious, Thoughtful Main Floor Layout

The Landon is designed around open-concept, functional living. The main floor typically includes:

A bright and open living room
A well-proportioned dining area
A stylish, modern kitchen with island
Thoughtful placement of windows for natural light
Convenient mudroom or garage-entry space

This creates a comfortable flow ideal for families, entertaining, or everyday routines.

✔ Upper Floor Designed for Families

Depending on the specification, the Landon features:

3 generously sized bedrooms
A full primary suite with ensuite
A second full bathroom
Upstairs laundry
Linen closets and storage solutions

The Landon’s upper floor design balances privacy, function, and comfort, making it an excellent choice for young families, roommates, or multi-generational living.

Designer Interior Packages Bring the Landon to Life

One of the Landon’s biggest selling features is the availability of Rohit Homes’ curated designer interiors. This means your home is professionally designed from top to bottom using cohesive styles such as:

Neo Contemporary Classic
Ethereal Zen
Haute Contemporary

These packages give the home a polished, magazine-ready look the moment you walk in — without the stress of picking every detail individually.

⭐ The Landon’s Exterior: Premium Duplex Curb Appeal

Because both sides of the Landon feature front garages, the entire building has a much more substantial presence from the street. Buyers love this because:

It feels like a single-family home from the outside
It allows for wider entry and architectural detailing
It improves symmetry and exterior appeal
It blends beautifully into Keswick’s architectural standards

This is especially important in Keswick, where exterior coordination is a key part of the community aesthetic.

⭐ Who Is the Landon Floor Plan Best Suited For?

The Landon is a perfect match for:

🏡 First-Time Buyers

Who want a stylish, functional home without stretching their budget.

👨‍👩‍👧 Growing Families

Who need multiple bedrooms, extra storage, and comfortable shared spaces.

🚗 Buyers Who Want a Front-Attached Garage

Without the cost of a detached single-family home.

🧑‍💼 Professionals or Couples

Seeking modern design and low-maintenance living in an upscale community.

🌿 Those Wanting to Live in Keswick

But prefer a more affordable entry price point.

⭐ Why the Landon Is a Standout in Keswick

Keswick is one of the most sought-after communities in Southwest Edmonton, known for:

River valley access
Stunning trail systems
Excellent schools
Proximity to Windermere amenities
High architectural standards

The Landon floor plan fits this environment perfectly, offering:

Elevated curb appeal
Practical layouts for everyday living
Beautiful designer finishes
Front-attached convenience
Exceptional long-term value

It’s a model that appeals to a wide range of buyers while enhancing the already beautiful Keswick streetscape.

⭐ Interested in Touring the Landon or Seeing Available Units?

If you’re exploring new construction homes in Keswick — or if the Landon floor plan feels like the right fit — I’d love to guide you through the next steps.

Rural Strathcona County is a unique and sought-after real estate market that continues to attract buyers looking for space, privacy, and a balance between country living and urban access. From executive estate homes to hobby farms, this area remains a hotbed of activity—and the data confirms it.

Let’s dive into the performance metrics for December 2025, compare them to last year, and examine trends across sold listings, pricing, days on market, new inventory, and more.

📊 December 2025 Snapshot at a Glance

To better understand how the market has evolved, let’s compare these numbers to December of the previous year:

Metric	Dec 2025	Dec 2024	% Change
Sold Properties	13	12	↑ 8.3%
Average Sold Price	$841,754	$786,900	↑ 6.97%

Strathcona County -Acreage Listings

📥 New Listings – A Healthy Year-End Supply

21 new listings came to market in December—providing ample options for serious buyers still shopping before year-end or planning for early 2026. This number is consistent with historical norms and shows that sellers remain confident in the market.

If you’re thinking of listing in the spring, now is the time to start preparing, as the market remains active and inventory resets in January.

Strathcona County – Average Acreage List Price

📈 Asking Prices Continue to Rise

The average list price for acreages in December 2025 reached $924,961, up from $874,550 last year. This 5.76% increase reflects rising land and construction costs, continued interest in rural living, and perhaps sellers pricing in recent upgrades or renovations.

Sellers should take note—well-presented acreages in desirable areas are still commanding premium asking prices, especially those offering turnkey conditions, outbuildings, or modern amenities.

Strathcona County –Acreage Sales

🏠 Sales Volume Holds Strong Despite Seasonal Shift

December typically brings a slowdown in real estate activity due to winter weather and the holidays. However, 13 sales in the rural Strathcona acreage market is a respectable total, representing an 8.3% year-over-year increase. This suggests that buyers are still active, especially those with specific relocation or move-in deadlines tied to the new year.

This sales activity also indicates that acreage living continues to appeal, even during slower months—proof that Strathcona County remains a top destination for lifestyle-driven buyers.

Average Sale Price

💰 Sold Prices Show Confidence in Market Value

The average sold price for the month was $841,754, up nearly 7% year-over-year. Notably, the median sold price rose more than 10%, from $695,000 in 2024 to $765,000 in 2025. This suggests that middle-tier acreage homes are seeing particularly strong interest.

While buyers are still price-conscious, they’re willing to invest in acreage properties that offer strong value, unique features, or proximity to Sherwood Park and key commuter routes.

Strathcona County Acreage Average Days on Market

🕒 Days on Market Decrease – Homes Are Selling Faster

Homes sold in December 2025 spent an average of 72 days on market, down from 78 days the year before. This 7.7% improvement highlights growing market efficiency.

Even in December, when DOM typically increases, rural properties that are well-marketed, well-priced, and show-ready are moving faster than in previous years. Buyers are acting more decisively, especially in areas with limited inventory.

📊 2025 Year-to-Date Comparison vs. 2024

Here’s a full snapshot of how the market performed year-to-date from January through December:

Metric	2025 YTD	2024 YTD	% Change
Sold Properties	342	324	↑ 5.56%
Average Sold Price	$881,000	$792,000	↑ 11.2%
Average List Price	$1,027,000	$957,000	↑ 7.31%
New Listings	490	524	↓ 6.49%
Average Days on Market	67	73	↓ 8.2%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	96.8%	95.1%	↑ 1.79%

This year-over-year data cements the strength and resilience of the rural Strathcona acreage market. Despite tighter inventory, both pricing and sales volume have improved, and homes are selling faster and closer to asking.

🛠️ What Buyers Are Looking For

Buyers in this market continue to prioritize:

Move-in ready acreages with updated interiors
Functional outbuildings (shops, barns, garages)
Good commute access to Edmonton or Sherwood Park
Modern mechanical systems (septic, well, heating)
Acreages with mature landscaping and privacy

Homes that meet these criteria tend to sell faster and closer to list price—even in the winter months.

📦 What Sellers Should Know

If you’re considering selling your acreage, here are three important tips based on market behaviour:

Don’t wait until spring – Many buyers are already actively looking and serious in Q1. Beat the rush by listing in January or February.
Prepare thoroughly – Get septic, well, and heating systems inspected in advance, and declutter indoor and outdoor spaces.
Price competitively but confidently – The data supports upward movement in sold prices and strong list-to-sale ratios.

With buyer demand still outpacing supply in certain sub-markets, it’s an excellent time to capitalize on the momentum.

📌 Local Market Trends to Watch in 2026

Looking ahead, several trends are likely to shape the acreage market in Strathcona County:

Continued demand from urban-to-rural relocators
Strong interest in multi-generational living setups
Renewed focus on sustainability features like solar and energy-efficient builds
Price appreciation expected to continue at a modest pace, especially in turnkey homes

Acreage living isn’t just a lifestyle—it’s an investment that continues to grow in desirability.

Beaumont Real Estate Market Update: December 2025 Statistics

As 2025 draws to a close, the Beaumont real estate market finishes the year with a surprisingly active December. Despite broader trends of slowdown across Alberta’s suburban markets, Beaumont posted a strong month in new listings and sold properties, signalling renewed confidence among sellers and seasonally unexpected buyer demand.

In this final market update of the year, we’ll walk through December’s numbers, recap the year as a whole, and offer insight for buyers and sellers preparing for 2026.

📊 December 2025 Market Summary Table

Metric	December 2025	December 2024	% Change
Sold Properties	31	25	↑ 24.00%
New Listings	36	26	↑ 38.46%

Interactive bar graphs

Beaumont New MLS® Listings

🏘️ Listings Rise by Nearly 40%

A total of 36 new listings hit the Beaumont market in December—a 38.46% increase over the same time last year. This is particularly notable considering many homeowners traditionally wait until spring to list.

The jump in listings suggests:

Sellers are trying to get ahead of 2026 market competition
Inventory is less seasonal than in past years
Investor-owned properties and vacant builder inventory are being actively marketed

Average Asking Price

💰 Asking Prices Surge to $603,000

The average asking price hit $603,000, a 10.07% increase from December 2024. This is the highest monthly list price recorded in 2025, reflecting strong seller expectations and confidence in the long-term value of Beaumont homes.

However, rising list prices do not always align with final sale prices—especially in slower winter markets.

Beaumont Home Sales

📈 Sales Jump 24% Year-over-Year

Beaumont saw 31 homes sold in December 2025, up from 25 last December—a 24% increase. This is an unusual trend, as December is typically one of the slowest months for real estate.

Key contributors to this unexpected rise include:

Buyers locking in purchases before expected 2026 rate adjustments
Builders offering year-end incentives on quick possessions
Sellers pricing more competitively, generating renewed activity

Average Sale Price

📉 Sale Prices Fall: Down 8.66% from Last Year

The average sale price for December was $523,000, down from an estimated $572,600 the year prior. This 8.66% year-over-year decline suggests that buyers are pushing back on inflated pricing or choosing more modest, entry-level homes.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Falls to 98.0%

Beaumont’s ask-to-sell ratio dipped to 98.0%, a modest 0.54% drop from last year. This means homes sold for about 2% below their list price, on average.

While not drastic, this reflects a market where negotiation is now standard, and buyers are no longer willing to meet aggressive seller expectations without justification.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Homes Take 99 Days to Sell

On average, homes took 99 days to sell in December, marking a 1.02% increase year-over-year. This metric remained relatively stable compared to prior months but is significantly higher than the spring average.

Contributing factors include:

Seasonal slowdown and delayed closings over the holidays
Increased negotiation cycles
Market fatigue from earlier in the year

Sellers listing in late fall should expect 3+ months to sale unless their property is in top condition and competitively priced.

📅 2025 Year-End Summary (YTD Totals)

Metric	2025 YTD	2024 YTD	% Change
Sold Properties	448	532	↓ 15.79%
Average Asking Price	$584,000	$564,000	↑ 3.54%
Average Sale Price	$542,000	$580,000	↓ 6.68%
New Listings	857	697	↑ 22.96%
Days on Market	53	73	↓ 27.40%
Ask-to-Sell Ratio	98.9%	99.3%	↓ 0.34%

🔍 What does this tell us about the year overall?

Sales volume slowed but remained stable in a shifting economic climate
Buyers gained more control, leading to price softening
Sellers remained optimistic, keeping asking prices higher
Inventory grew substantially, shifting the market toward balance

Beaumont

🧠 Buyer Takeaways: Smart Timing, More Options

🎯 More Homes to Choose From – With 857 new listings this year and 36 in December alone, inventory levels are high.

💲 Price Reductions Are Real – With the average sale price down 6.68% YTD, buyers can find value—especially in homes listed for 60+ days.

💡 Use Leverage – Homes are selling under list, and conditions like inspection, financing, and extended possession are back on the table.

💼 Seller Strategies: Adapt to the Data

📦 Expect a Longer Timeline – 99 days DOM means sellers need to plan ahead, especially if they’re coordinating a move.

📸 Marketing Still Wins – Homes with great visuals, floor plans, and virtual tours are outperforming those without.

📉 Price to the Market, Not the Memory – Listing at spring or summer prices from earlier in the year could lead to stagnation.

💬 Consider incentives like landscaping credits, appliances, or flexible possession dates to stand out.

🔮 Forecast for Q1 2026

As we move into the new year, here’s what to expect:

🧊 January and February will likely remain slow, especially for higher-priced homes
📈 Renewed interest may build in March, with buyers motivated by rate predictions or job transfers
🛠️ Builders may continue offering incentives, making new construction more competitive
📊 Prices will likely stabilize, but homes will need sharp pricing to sell

Buyers: Now is a good time to shop—competition is low, and sellers are flexible.
Sellers: Use January to prepare. Renovate, clean, stage, and price right. Spring buyers are coming.

Sherwood Park New MLS® Listings

🆕 New Listings – Seller Confidence on the Rise

With 61 new listings hitting the market in December, Sherwood Park experienced a 17.31% increase compared to December 2024. This growth in inventory, especially during the holiday season, indicates that homeowners are optimistic about market conditions and looking to capitalize on strong buyer demand.

This is a good sign for buyers as well—more listings mean increased options, particularly heading into the typically more active spring market.

Average Asking Price

💰 Average Asking Price – Steady Increase in Value

The average asking price in Sherwood Park was $528,000, representing a 9.09% year-over-year increase. Sellers are clearly pricing with confidence, supported by recent sales trends and price growth in surrounding communities.

This uptick in list price suggests that homes with premium features, updated interiors, and desirable locations are commanding stronger list prices, further pushing the market upward.

Sherwood Park Home Sales

🏠 Sales Activity – Strong Finish to the Year

In December 2025, Sherwood Park recorded 41 sales, a notable 28.13% increase compared to the same time last year. While it’s expected for sales to slow in the winter months, this upswing signals renewed buyer confidence, especially given the tighter inventory observed throughout the fall.

This marks the third month in a row with year-over-year gains in sold properties, suggesting momentum may carry into Q1 of 2026.

Average Sale Price

🏷️ Sold Price – Solid Close at $518,000

The average sale price for a home in Sherwood Park in December 2025 reached $518,000, a 9.98% increase over December 2024. This continues a trend of strong price performance in the second half of the year and reflects healthy demand.

Homes are not only selling faster than last year but also closer to their asking price, indicating a market that’s efficiently priced and attractive to serious buyers.

📈 List-to-Sale Price Ratio – Nearly Full Price

The list-to-sale price ratio in December was 98%, meaning most homes sold within 2% of their asking price. This is a subtle but meaningful improvement over last year’s 97% ratio, and reflects the minimal room for negotiation in Sherwood Park’s desirable neighbourhoods.

Sellers who price realistically and work with experienced REALTORS® are being rewarded with strong final sale prices, often after minimal time on the market.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Days on Market – Homes Selling Faster

The average Days on Market (DOM) dropped to 48 days, down from 56 a year ago—a 14.29% improvement. This shorter selling window signals that well-prepared, competitively priced homes are being snapped up more quickly, especially when staged effectively and marketed aggressively.

As inventory remains below long-term averages, buyers continue to act quickly on properties that offer great value.

📅 Year-to-Date Comparison (2025 vs. 2024)

Metric	2025 YTD	2024 YTD	% Change
Total Homes Sold	825	761	+8.41%
Average List Price	$522,000	$487,000	+7.19%
Average Sale Price	$511,000	$474,000	+7.80%
Days on Market	40	47	-14.89%

Sherwood Park wrapped up 2025 with notable gains across all key metrics. Year-over-year increases in sales volume and pricing reflect a healthy and appreciating suburban market, ideal for both move-up buyers and long-term investors.

🧭 What This Means for Buyers

If you’re considering buying in Sherwood Park, now is a great time to explore the available winter inventory before the spring rush begins. With listings increasing and homes selling efficiently, serious buyers can still find quality properties without facing extreme competition.

Working with a local REALTOR® can help you get a head start on coming soon listings, builder incentives, and flexible closing dates.

🏡 What This Means for Sellers

Sellers should feel confident entering the market in early 2026, especially as buyer demand remains steady and average sale prices continue to climb. December’s strong results indicate that buyers are still active and willing to act quickly—particularly when homes are priced right, staged effectively, and marketed with strong digital presence.

If you’re thinking about listing in the next 30–90 days, now is the time to get your property ready with pre-listing photography, market analysis, and showing prep.

🔮 Forecast for 2026 – Balanced Growth Ahead

As we step into the new year, the Sherwood Park market is poised for continued strength, with balanced conditions expected through the spring. Interest rates are expected to remain relatively stable, and migration into the Edmonton Region continues to support local housing demand.

We may see an early start to the spring market, especially with rising rental rates pushing tenants toward ownership. Watch for more first-time buyer activity, upsizers, and interprovincial relocations in the coming months.

🛠️ Builder + Resale Blend in 2026

Sherwood Park continues to offer a diverse mix of resale homes and new construction, appealing to a wide range of buyers. Whether you’re looking for modern townhomes in Emerald Hills, estate properties in Sherwood Golf & Country Club Estates, or family-friendly communities like Lakeland Ridge, this market has it all.

Rural Sturgeon County Real Estate Market Update: December 2025

by Christina Reid

Sturgeon Country Realtor Chris Reid Century 21 Leading

Rural Sturgeon County Real Estate Market Update: December 2025 Statistics

As 2025 comes to a close, the real estate market in Rural Sturgeon County reflects the broader trends seen across many rural markets in Alberta—slightly softened activity, longer selling times, and ongoing shifts in pricing expectations. For buyers, sellers, and investors keeping an eye on acreage and country residential properties in the Sturgeon County region, this report delivers an in-depth overview of what December 2025 had to offer.

From average list and sale prices to days on market and sales-to-list ratios, this market update breaks down each key statistic, compares year-over-year trends, and helps you make confident, data-driven real estate decisions.

📊 Rural Sturgeon County – December 2025 Market Snapshot

✅ Key Stats:

Metric	December 2025	December 2024	% Change
Total Sales	5	5	0.0%
New Listings	8	7	+14.3%
Average List Price	$911,600	$940,486	–3.1%
Average Sale Price	$885,000	$933,000	–5.1%
Sales-to-List Price Ratio	97.1%	99.2%	–2.1%
Average Days on Market	100 days	91 days	+9.9%

Interactive bar graphs

Rural Sturgeon County New MLS® Listings

🏷️ New Listings

There were 11 new listings in December 2025, compared to 12 new listings in December 2024. The relatively flat change in new inventory suggests that seller confidence is steady, even if buyer activity has waned.

This also means inventory remains modestly replenished, which could help keep prices more stable moving into 2026.

Average List Price

💰 Average List Price

The average asking price for properties in Rural Sturgeon County in December 2025 came in at $1,072,109, a noticeable increase from $829,141 in December 2024.

This 29% increase in average list price may seem dramatic at first glance, but it reflects a shift in inventory composition—more higher-end acreages and estate homes were listed this December compared to last year, pushing the average up. It’s not necessarily indicative of a major price jump across all property types.

Rural Sturgeon County Home Sales

📉 Total Sales Activity

In December 2025, there were 8 properties sold in Rural Sturgeon County, marking a decline from the 12 properties sold in December 2024. This represents a 33% year-over-year drop in volume for the month.

While this kind of slowdown is typical during the winter months, it’s also consistent with a broader cooling in rural markets across Alberta due to increased borrowing costs and more selective buyer behaviour.

Average Sale Price

💵 Average Sale Price

Despite higher list prices, the average sale price in December 2025 was $796,100, which is also an increase from $686,125 in December 2024.

That’s a 16% year-over-year increase in sale price. Again, this reflects the presence of larger or more premium homes in the sales mix this month. It’s important for sellers to remember that list price increases don’t always translate directly to sale price gains.

📊 Sales-to-List Price Ratio

The sales-to-list price ratio dropped slightly to 96.6% in December 2025, compared to 98.2% in December 2024.

This means sellers, on average, received just under 97% of their asking price, which is typical in a market where buyers have more room to negotiate. It also suggests that while list prices increased, buyers remained cautious and budget-conscious.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Days on Market (DOM)

Homes in Rural Sturgeon County spent an average of 81 days on market in December 2025, up from 74 days in December 2024.

This modest increase in DOM highlights a slightly slower pace of sales, with buyers taking longer to act—likely influenced by economic uncertainty and the holiday season. However, 81 days is still within a normal range for rural listings.

📆 Year-to-Date Snapshot (Jan–Dec 2025)

Now that the full year of 2025 has passed, we can reflect on how the market has performed compared to 2024. Below is a comprehensive Year-to-Date Comparison Table:

📊 Rural Sturgeon County – Year-to-Date Comparison (Jan–Dec)

Metric	2025 YTD	2024 YTD	% Change
Sold Properties	151	182	-17.0%

The 2025 Rural Sturgeon County acreage market displayed moderate resilience, despite overall lower sales volume and longer selling times compared to 2024. A few key takeaways:

Higher price points are showing up more frequently in listings, leading to a rising average list price.
Buyers remain selective, which is softening the sales-to-list ratio and increasing days on market.
Inventory is tightening slightly, with 13% fewer new listings year-over-year.

While not a red-hot market, Rural Sturgeon County is seeing stabilized pricing and ongoing demand for premium rural homes, especially those offering space, privacy, and upgraded amenities.

🛠️ Advice for Sellers

If you’re thinking of selling your acreage in Sturgeon County:

Price strategically: Overpricing may lead to extended time on market or the need for future price reductions.
Prepare for negotiation: Most homes are selling slightly below asking price.
Stage for lifestyle: Highlight the acreage lifestyle—space, privacy, outbuildings, and scenic surroundings.

🧭 Guidance for Buyers

For buyers:

Take your time: Properties are sitting longer, which means less competition and more room for thoughtful decisions.
Work with a rural expert: Country residential properties come with unique considerations—septic systems, wells, zoning—so having an experienced agent is key.
Be ready to move when the right acreage pops up, especially in spring when more listings are expected.

🔮 Looking Ahead to 2026

With interest rates potentially easing in 2026 and more balance expected across rural and suburban markets, spring 2026 may bring increased inventory and a return to more typical sales activity.

Buyers and sellers should continue to monitor pricing trends and stay informed about local market dynamics—not just broad economic headlines.
