Parkland County Acreage Listings
🏘️ New Listings Fall 36% – Less Inventory, More Demand
Only 64 new acreage listings hit the market in September 2025, a steep 36% decline compared to the same time last year
. Year-to-date, new listings remain steady at 834, just slightly down (0.24%) from 2024.
Fewer new listings paired with more sales mean reduced inventory, which could tighten the market further heading into the fall.
For Sellers:
- Now is the time to list. With fewer competing properties and strong buyer demand, well-priced acreages are receiving attention quickly.
For Buyers:
- Be ready to act fast. With limited options available and faster sales, it’s critical to have financing in place and work with an agent who can alert you to new opportunities quickly.
Average List Price
📉 Asking Prices Adjust Downward
In a notable shift, the average asking price in September 2025 dropped to $750,000, a 11.6% decrease year-over-year
. This is the lowest average asking price reported in several months, possibly reflecting seller recognition of evolving buyer expectations or increased motivation to sell before winter.
However, the year-to-date asking price remains higher than last year overall, with a modest 0.63% decrease, sitting at $731,000 compared to $736,000 in 2024
This gap between list price and sale price continues to narrow, especially with an ask-to-sell ratio of 0.977, meaning most properties sold for 97.7% of their asking price in September.

. Year-to-date, 2025 has seen 507 total sales, up 10.7% compared to 2024
This growth in activity confirms that buyer confidence in rural property continues to strengthen—likely driven by demand for space, lifestyle flexibility, and proximity to nature while staying within reach of Edmonton and surrounding communities.
Parkland County Average Sale Price
💰 Average Sale Price Soars to $701K
Despite a drop in average asking price, the average sale price climbed 23.74% from the previous year, reaching $701,000 in September. This is a clear sign that well-presented acreages are attracting strong offers—even in a tightening market.
Why This Matters:

Let’s take a deep dive into the numbers, trends, and opportunities presented in this month's market update, based on the latest data from the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton.

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.
If you're unsure whether to list now or wait until spring, reach out and I can provide you with a personalized market analysis tailored to your home and neighbourhood.
📣 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.

Spruce Grove Real Estate Market Update September 2025
As we move into the crisp days of fall, the Spruce Grove real estate market is beginning to show signs of seasonal moderation. With fewer properties sold, longer days on market, and a softening in sale price growth, the September 2025 statistics reflect a shift toward a more balanced market—creating different opportunities for buyers and sellers alike.
If you’re considering a move in Spruce Grove, this in-depth update will help you understand what the numbers mean, and how to navigate this evolving market landscape.
📊 September 2025 At-a-Glance: Spruce Grove Housing Stats
| Metric | September 2025 | September 2024 | % Change |
| Sold Properties | 89 | 98 | ↓ 9.18% |
| YTD Sold Properties | 921 | 1010 | ↓ 8.81% |

New MLS® Listing Count
📦 New Listings: A Slight Dip, But Inventory Remains Strong
In September 2025, 130 new properties hit the market in Spruce Grove, which is a 1.52% decrease compared to September 2024.
While this month saw a modest drop in listings, the year-to-date total has climbed to 1,308 homes listed, representing a 4.56% increase over last year’s 1,251 listings at the same point in time.
This year-over-year growth in overall inventory provides continued support for buyers entering the fall market. Although September's listings dipped slightly, this could be attributed to seasonal patterns where fewer homeowners list homes in the fall. Still, the broader trend shows that more sellers are entering the market in 2025, helping ease pressure on supply and offering buyers more choice heading into Q4.
Average Listing Price in Spruce Grove
📈 Average Asking Price: Seller Confidence Still Holding
The average asking price in September 2025 was $501,000, showing a 6.26% increase from the same month last year. The year-to-date average asking price holds strong at $503,000, up 9.00% compared to 2024.
This consistent rise in list prices demonstrates continued seller confidence, even as the market shows signs of slowing in terms of actual sales. Many homeowners are still aiming to capitalize on the gains seen earlier in the year. However, as buyer caution grows and days on market lengthen, pricing homes appropriately from the start will be crucial. Sellers hoping to stand out in the increasingly competitive fall market will benefit from accurate valuations and expert local insight.
Spruce Grove Home Sales
🏠 Sales Activity: Slowing into Fall
In September 2025, 89 properties sold in Spruce Grove—down from 98 in the same month last year. This represents a 9.18% drop in sales, aligning with the seasonal cooling we often see as summer turns to fall.
Looking at the bigger picture, the year-to-date total of 921 sales is 8.81% lower than 2024's YTD figure of 1,010 homes sold
While this might seem like a concern at first glance, it’s a normal transition in many markets as buyer urgency tends to taper off in the autumn months. For sellers, this means pricing right and marketing effectively is more important than ever.
Real Estate Market Statistics Spruce Grove Average Home Sale Price
This shows that sellers remain confident, although the rate of price growth is starting to slow compared to the double-digit jumps we saw earlier in the year.
Sale Prices:
- The average sale price in September came in at $461,000, just 1.01% higher than the same month in 2024.
- Year-to-date, homes in Spruce Grove have sold for an average of $475,000, a 10.67% increase from last year.
.
The narrowing gap between list price growth and sale price growth suggests buyers are becoming more price-sensitive, especially as affordability is tested.
🧾 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Buyers Gaining Leverage
The ask-to-sell ratio in September was 0.990, a slight drop of 0.86% from the previous year, and a sign that homes are no longer selling at or above list price as frequently as they were in the spring and summer
This doesn’t mean the market has turned negative—it simply indicates that buyers are being more selective and negotiations are back on the table.
Days on Market Until Sale
📉 Days on Market: Properties Taking Longer to Sell
One of the most notable changes in September is how long homes are staying on the market.
- The average number of days on market jumped to 63 days, a 31.25% increase from last year.
- Even so, the YTD average sits at 50 days, still 15.25% faster than 2024's pace
This monthly increase is a strong indicator that demand is softening slightly—buyers may be taking more time to make decisions, especially with more listings available.

🔮 Looking Ahead: Fall & Winter 2025

- Inventory will remain steady: New listings may slow slightly, but enough options should remain for buyers through winter.
- Sales may decline seasonally, but sellers who prepare their homes well can still see solid results.
- Prices may hold, but we’re unlikely to see the dramatic gains from earlier this year continue at the same pace.
It’s a market in transition, and that creates opportunities for both buyers and sellers who are strategic.

Stony Plain Real Estate - New MLS® Listings
🏡 New Listings Drop Sharply
September 2025 brought 43 new listings to market, which is a 25.86% decrease compared to September 2024. Year-to-date, 481 new homes have been listed, a 2.04% decrease from 2024 levels.
This drop in fresh inventory is a double-edged sword:
- For sellers, it’s an opportunity to stand out in a less crowded market.
- For buyers, it means fewer options and potentially increased competition for desirable
Average Asking Price of Homes in Stony Plain
🏷️ Asking Prices Hit New Highs
In September, the average asking price climbed to $460,000, a staggering 24.19% year-over-year increase. That’s one of the steepest annual jumps in listing prices we’ve seen all year.
With a YTD average asking price of $434,000, up 6.63% from 2024, sellers are clearly pricing high—and for good reason. With sale prices also on the rise, sellers are seeing favourable returns, although overpricing can still hurt if a home lingers on the market too long
Stony Plain Home Sales
🏘️ Sales Hold Steady Despite Economic Headwinds
September saw 34 homes sold, exactly matching the number sold in the same month last year. On the surface, this may suggest stability, but when looking at year-to-date (YTD) sales, we see a 7.38% decline, with 364 homes sold so far in 2025 compared to 393 by this time in 2024
While this drop is moderate, it may reflect rising borrowing costs, affordability challenges, or simple buyer hesitancy heading into the fall. That said, consistent monthly activity suggests continued local demand and overall market resilience.
Stony Plain Real Estate Market- Average Home Sale Price
💰 Sale Prices Surge in September
One of the most striking changes in the market is the jump in average sale price, which reached $421,000 in September 2025. That’s a 20.63% increase over September 2024. This strong appreciation continues a trend of rising property values in Stony Plain.
YTD, the average sale price now sits at $407,000, up 6.25% from the same time last year
These figures make it clear: Stony Plain remains a strong market for long-term homeowners and sellers looking to build equity.
📉 Slight Dip in Ask-to-Sell Ratio
The ask-to-sell ratio in September dropped slightly to 98.5%, from approximately 99.1% in the previous year. This means that homes are still selling close to asking price, but not quite at the same premium levels we saw in the past.
However, YTD the ratio remains strong at 99.2%, demonstrating that realistic pricing is still rewarded with serious offers near asking
Stony Plain Average Days on Market
⏳ Homes Selling Faster Than Before
Another favourable trend is the reduction in days on market. The average time to sell a home in Stony Plain dropped to 35 days in September, down 16.67% from a year ago. YTD, homes are selling in about 45 days on average, an improvement over 53 days in 2024.
This means that while listings are lower, the homes that are on the market are selling faster—likely due to increased pricing confidence and better-prepared listings
🧭 What This Means for Buyers
- Higher Prices Mean Acting Quickly Is Critical
With sale prices climbing nearly 21% year-over-year, buyers should be aware that hesitation may lead to paying more later. - Tighter Inventory Means More Competition
A 25% drop in new listings means fewer choices. Be prepared to move fast and work with a local expert to identify new listings the moment they hit the market. - Quick Closings Are the Norm
With homes selling in just over a month, buyers should have pre-approvals in hand and be ready to make decisive offers.
🏠 What This Means for Sellers
-
- It’s a Seller’s Market—Still
Despite the slowdown in total sales, rising prices and faster sales mean sellers are in a favourable position, especially for well-maintained homes in desirable price ranges. - Fewer Listings Mean More Exposure
With fewer homes on the market, properly marketed listings stand out, often attracting more attention and potentially multiple offers.
- It’s a Seller’s Market—Still
momentum.
- Strategic Pricing Matters
While asking prices are up, the small dip in the ask-to-sell ratio shows that buyers are negotiating. Price too high, and you risk losing valuable early
🏙️ Why Buyers Continue to Choose Stony PlainWith its welcoming community atmosphere, proximity to Edmonton, and steadily growing amenities, Stony Plain continues to be a popular choice for:- First-time buyers looking for value
- Families seeking space and schools
- Retirees downsizing without sacrificing lifestyle
- Investors betting on long-term appreciation in a stable market
🔮 Market Outlook for Fall 2025
Looking ahead into the fall, here are some trends to watch:
- Interest Rates & Affordability
If rates remain steady, demand is likely to stay high even as we move into a typically slower season. - Inventory Levels
With new listings declining, buyers will need to act quickly—and sellers may face less competition. - Continued Price Growth
The trend line shows steady appreciation. If you’ve been waiting to sell, the fall season could offer you optimal conditions.

Strathcona County -Acreage Listings
📥 New Listings: Inventory Tightening into Fall
Only 46 new listings hit the market in September—a 6.12% drop from last year. Even more telling, year-to-date new listings are down 4.54%, with only 505 properties listed in total so far this year
Takeaway:
Buyers will continue to feel pressure due to shrinking inventory. This also helps sellers maintain negotiating power—particularly those who are listing competitively.
If you’re a buyer: be proactive and act fast.
If you’re a seller: this is an excellent window to list before winter inventory dwindles even further.
Strathcona County - Average Acreage List Price
📈 Asking Prices: Sellers Temper Expectations
The average asking price in September was $934,000, down a notable 11.76% year-over-year. While this may seem like a correction, it also reflects a realignment of seller expectations after several months of aggressive pricing.
That said, the YTD average asking price is $976,000, still 7.46% higher than the same point in 2024
This shows sellers are still seeing substantial year-over-year equity gains—just not at the speculative pace seen earlier in the year.
Strathcona County -Acreage Sales
🏡 Sales Activity: Highest September Sales in Recent Years
In September 2025, 38 acreages were sold, representing a 22.58% increase over the same month last year. This uptick is significant given that fall usually signals a slowdown. Year-to-date, 330 acreages have sold, up 14.19% from 2024.
This signals two key trends:
- Buyers are continuing to pursue acreage life, especially as urban inventory tightens.
- Sellers are finding opportunities well beyond the traditional “spring market” cycle.
What It Means for Buyers:
Expect competition for move-in-ready homes, especially those with desirable features like workshops, treed privacy, and proximity to Sherwood Park or Hwy 21.
What It Means for Sellers:
Listings in the fall are getting serious attention. If your acreage is priced right and well-presented, you can still expect strong results before winter.
💰 Average Sale Price: A Minor Dip, But Long-Term Growth Holds
September's average sale price of $770,000 marked a slight 2.30% decline compared to September 2024. However, year-to-date, the average sits at $841,000, which is 11.27% higher than the same time last year.
Why the Drop?
- More mid-range acreages sold this month.
- Some higher-end properties may be holding until spring.
- Negotiation margins increased as DOM (days on market) grew.
Despite the dip, the year-to-date trend remains solid and shows strong long-term value appreciation for rural homes in Strathcona County.
📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Small Gap, Smart Pricing Still Matters
September's ask-to-sell ratio was 0.969, meaning homes sold for 96.9% of their asking price. This is a modest improvement from last year’s 95.8%, showing buyers are still negotiating, but the market remains strong.
The year-to-date figure of 0.979 (97.9%) continues to reflect a high-confidence market, where well-priced homes are moving close to their list price.
Strathcona County Acreage Average Days on Market
⏱️ Days on Market: Longer Waits for Sale
In September, the average time on market was 95 days, an increase of 25% over the previous year. On a year-to-date basis, homes are still moving faster than in 2024 (72 vs 83 days) but this month indicates buyers are taking more time before committing
Key Factors:
- Slight seasonal slowdown heading into fall
- Higher price point properties sitting longer
- Buyer caution around rising interest rates
Sellers should prep for slightly longer listing timelines unless the home is priced sharply and marketed properly.
🧭 Year-to-Date Performance Snapshot
So far in 2025, rural Strathcona County has shown:
- 330 properties sold (up 14.19%)
- $841K average sale price (up 11.27%)
- 505 new listings (down 4.54%)
- Days on market reduced 13.25% YTD
This blend of fewer listings, faster sales (overall), and rising prices illustrates a market where demand outpaces supply, particularly for the right acreage properties.
💡 What Buyers Need to Know Right Now
If you’re shopping for a rural acreage in Strathcona County, the market is competitive, but it’s not out of reach.
Buyer Tips:
- Act fast on properties with upgraded features, great layouts, or unique land characteristics.
- Have financing prepped: A quick offer can be the difference-maker.
- Know your non-negotiables (e.g., treed lot, fencing, garage space).
- Work with a local REALTOR® who understands wells, septic systems, zoning, and more.
💼 What Sellers Should Do This Fall
Sellers are in a favourable position, especially if their home is priced within the mid-to-upper $700K to $900K range—where demand is strongest.
Seller Tips:
- List before winter to avoid slower holiday market conditions.
- Prep your property: clear driveways, stage interiors, showcase the yard before snow hits.
- Don’t overprice: Price it close to recent comps to avoid long DOM.
- Use aerial photos and acreage-specific marketing (drone, zoning maps, proximity to amenities).
🧠 Investor Insights: Still Room for Smart Acreage Plays
While the price gains are tapering slightly, the 11.27% YTD price increase suggests strong fundamentals. For investors, rural Strathcona County remains a smart place to:
- Buy and hold appreciating land
- Invest in live-in fixer-uppers
- Purchase income-generating acreages with rental suites, shops, or agricultural income potential
🔮 Looking Ahead: What to Expect in Q4
As we enter Q4:
- Expect fewer new listings
- Buyers may get more negotiating power on homes that have sat longer
- Well-priced homes will continue to move
- Watch for interest rate changes that may influence financing conditions
Sellers should act now to take advantage of fall activity. Buyers should be ready to pounce on good opportunities before the winter lull.

Sherwood Park New MLS® Listings
July saw 201 new listings, a 14.86% increase over July 2024.
Year-to-date, there have been 1127 listings, almost the same as last year (-0.53%). While new inventory is coming onto the market, much of it is being absorbed quickly by eager buyers, especially in the $450K–$550K range.
Average Asking Price
💰 Home Prices Surge Higher
The most notable trend in Sherwood Park this month is the sharp rise in prices.
Average Asking Price: At $545,000, the average asking price for July 2025 is 14.78% higher than July 2024. This indicates strong seller confidence and reflects the value buyers are placing on homes in this community.
Sherwood Park Home Sales
🏡 Sales Activity – A Stable July
Sherwood Park recorded 158 home sales in July 2025, almost identical to the 157 sales in July 2024, marking a slight 0.64% increase year-over-year.
While monthly sales have stayed stable, year-to-date sales are down 6.51%, with 876 properties sold so far in 2025 compared to 937 at this time in 2024. This drop is likely due to tight inventory in certain price segments and rising interest rates earlier in the year that may have slowed some buyer activity.
Average Sale Price
Average Sale Price: The average sale price hit $519,000, which is 6.04% higher than last year.
Year-to-Date Pricing: Looking at the year as a whole so far, the average sale price of $511,000 represents a 7.94% increase compared to the same period in 2024.
🔍 Ask-to-Sell Ratio – Slight Dip but Still Strong
The ask-to-sell ratio in July 2025 was 1.003, meaning most homes sold almost exactly at their asking price, with some even selling slightly above.
While this is a 0.12% drop from last year’s July figure, the year-to-date ratio of 1.012 remains higher than in 2024, reinforcing that buyers are still competitive in their offers.
Average Days on Market
⌛ Homes Are Selling Faster
Speed is a defining characteristic of the Sherwood Park market right now:
- In July 2025, the average days on market was just 25 days, a 13.79% reduction from last year.
- Year-to-date, homes are selling in an average of 29 days, compared to 41 days in 2024—a significant 29.27% faster.
This means well-priced homes are often selling within a few weeks, and sometimes in less than a week if they’re in high-demand neighbourhoods or price ranges.
📋 Year-to-Date Comparison: Sherwood Park Real Estate Market (2024 vs 2025)
| Metric | 2024 YTD | 2025 YTD | % Change |

| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.998 | 1.012 | +1.42% |
📈 Market Interpretation – What These Numbers Mean
For Buyers:
- Competition is still high: Homes are selling quickly and close to asking price.
- Act fast: With only 25 days on market, buyers need to be pre-approved and ready to make strong offers.
- Be realistic: Prices are higher than last year, so budget accordingly.
For Sellers:
- It’s still a great time to list: Price growth and quick sales create favourable conditions.
- Presentation matters: Homes in good condition sell faster and for higher prices.
- Strategic pricing works: Overpricing can slow down offers, while competitive pricing can lead to bidding situations.
🔮 Looking Ahead
Given the steady demand and rising prices, Sherwood Park is likely to maintain strong market conditions for the rest of 2025. The pace of sales may slow slightly into fall, but low days on market and steady price growth suggest stability.
The only factor that could ease competition would be a significant increase in new inventory—something to watch for in the coming months.

Rural Sturgeon County Real Estate Market Update: July 2025 Statistics
Rural Sturgeon County continues to be one of the most desirable areas for buyers seeking the perfect blend of space, privacy, and accessibility to Edmonton and surrounding communities. Known for its rolling landscapes, expansive acreages, and small-town charm, this area attracts everyone from first-time acreage buyers to seasoned investors looking for prime rural properties.
As of July 2025, the market in Rural Sturgeon County is showing a mix of strong sales activity and price adjustments, signalling an evolving marketplace that both buyers and sellers should watch closely.
Interactive bar graphs
Rural Sturgeon County New MLS® Listings
July 2025: 41 new listings (+13.89% from July 2024)
YTD: 259 new listings (-18.04% from 316 in 2024)
Analysis:
July’s jump in new listings provides buyers with more choice, which is a welcome change in a market that has been struggling with tight inventory all year. However, the year-to-date shortfall means inventory is still lower than last year overall, maintaining a level of competition for well-priced homes.
Implications:
- For Sellers: Listing now could mean standing out more, as buyers will notice fresh inventory amid a year of lower supply.
- For Buyers: More listings in July mean more opportunity to compare and negotiate. This could be a good time to make offers before fall inventory drops again.
Average List Price
💰 Average Asking Price – Sellers Recalibrating
July 2025: $757,000 (-7.26% from July 2024)
YTD: $912,000 (+4.93% from $869,000 in 2024)
Analysis:
This month’s drop in average asking price suggests that sellers are adjusting to meet current market conditions. While the year-to-date asking price remains higher than last year, the July dip shows a willingness to price more competitively to secure a sale. This recalibration is often necessary when buyers are pushing back on inflated prices, particularly with today’s cautious purchasing environment.
Rural Sturgeon County Home Sales
📈 Sold Properties – Activity Boost in July
July 2025: 29 properties sold (+11.54% from July 2024)
YTD: 138 sales (-17.86% from 2024’s 168 sales)
Analysis:
The increase in July’s monthly sales shows that demand is still strong for rural Sturgeon County properties, particularly those that offer move-in readiness, modern updates, or sought-after locations. However, the YTD decrease tells us that 2025 has been a slower year overall, likely due to fewer listings and higher borrowing costs that are making buyers more selective.
Average Sale Price
🏷 Average Sale Price – Stable Overall, Slight Dip This Month
July 2025: $689,000 (-1.76% from July 2024)
YTD: $746,000 (+4.02% from $717,000 in 2024)
Analysis:
While the July figure is slightly lower than last year, the year-to-date growth shows that the overall market remains healthy. The monthly dip could be tied to more mid-range and entry-level acreage sales in July, which naturally pull the average price down.
📏 Ask-to-Sell Ratio – Sellers Getting Close to Their Price
July 2025: 98.6% (+1.49% from July 2024)
YTD: 97.1% (-0.29% from 2024)
Analysis:
This is one of the most telling metrics—98.6% means sellers are receiving offers very close to their asking price. It’s a sign of a competitive market for good properties, even when sales volume is lower.
Average Days on Market
⏱ Days on Market – Faster Sales for the Right Homes
July 2025: 76 days (-41.98% from July 2024)
YTD: 97 days (+5.43% from 92 in 2024)
Analysis:
July’s dramatic drop in days on market is a key indicator of strong buyer interest in certain types of properties. Homes that are priced well and offer desirable features are selling much faster. The increase in YTD days on market shows that earlier in the year, homes were sitting longer, but recent activity is speeding things up.
Rural Sturgeon County Year-to-Date Market Comparison: July 2024 vs. July 2025

🔮 Market Outlook for the Rest of 2025
Looking ahead, the July data suggests a steady market with more balance between buyers and sellers. Inventory remains tight, which supports prices, but recent listing increases could bring more choice into late summer. Expect demand to stay healthy for well-maintained, realistically priced properties.

Lac Ste Anne New MLS® Listings
New Listings Decline – Inventory Tightens
One of the most significant shifts in July 2025 has been the drop in new listings. Only 63 new properties hit the market, representing a 21.25% decrease compared to July 2024.
YTD, the total number of new listings is 534, which is 6.64% lower than in 2024. This tightening of inventory puts additional pressure on buyers, as competition for well-priced and well-located properties intensifies.
For sellers, this reduced competition creates a favourable environment for attracting multiple offers.
Average List Price
The average asking price in July 2025 was $416,000, a 6.53% increase from July 2024. Sellers remain confident in pricing their homes higher, supported by continued buyer demand and limited inventory.
YTD, the average asking price is $394,000, which is 7.94% higher than in 2024. This consistent upward movement reflects the long-term strengthening of property values in rural Lac Ste. Anne.
Lac Ste Anne Home Sales
July 2025 was a standout month for sales in rural Lac Ste. Anne County, with 54 properties sold, marking a 50% increase compared to July 2024. This surge demonstrates that interest in rural properties remains strong well into the summer months.
On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, sales continue to outperform last year’s pace. A total of 268 properties have sold so far in 2025, up 33.33% from the 201 sold during the same period in 2024.
This sustained growth is a clear indicator that rural living is not just a temporary trend—it’s a lasting lifestyle choice for many Albertans.
Average Sale Price
The average sale price for July was $381,000, up 20.08% year-over-year. On a YTD basis, the average sale price has reached $397,000, which is 12.78% higher than the same period last year.
The strong sale price growth is evidence of the market’s resilience, with buyers prepared to pay more for rural homes and acreages that meet their needs.
Ask-to-Sell Ratio – Buyers Paying Close to Asking Price
The average ask-to-sell ratio in July 2025 was 95.7%, which is nearly identical to last year, showing a 0.06% increase. This means that, on average, homes are selling for just slightly below their asking price.
YTD, the ratio stands at 95.6%, a slight 0.96% decrease from last year’s 96.5%. This shows that negotiation is still part of the process, but sellers are generally achieving prices close to their expectations.
Average Days on Market
While demand is strong, the average days on market in July 2025 rose to 124 days, an increase of 93.75% from July 2024.
YTD, the average days on market sits at 108 days, up 24.14% compared to 2024.
This longer selling period could indicate that while demand is high, buyers are taking more time to find the right property, or that some sellers are testing higher price points before adjusting to market conditions.
Year-to-Date Comparison – 2025 vs 2024
| Metric | 2025 YTD | 2024 YTD | % Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sold Properties | 268 | 201 | ↑ 33.33% |

| Days on Market | 108 | 87 | ↑ 24.14% |
| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.956 | 0.965 | ↓ 0.96% |
What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
For Buyers:
- Expect strong competition for the best properties due to fewer new listings.
- Be prepared to act quickly when you find a property that fits your needs.
- While prices are higher, there is still some room for negotiation in most transactions.
For Sellers:
- With sales volume up and new listings down, market conditions remain in your favour.

Devon New MLS® Listings
New Listings: Inventory Surges
July saw 23 new listings, a 91.67% increase compared to July 2024. This is one of the largest jumps we’ve seen in Devon’s recent monthly history. Year-to-date, 102 new listings have come to market, which is 5.15% higher than in 2024.
For buyers, this is great news — more inventory means more choice and less competition for each property. For sellers, it’s a reminder that pricing competitively and presenting your home well is essential in a market with more options.
Average List Price
In July 2025, the average asking price in Devon reached $390,000, marking a 19.06% increase compared to July 2024. This significant rise signals growing seller confidence and a belief that the market can sustain higher property values during the peak summer season. Year-to-date, the average asking price sits at $404,000, which is 1.94% higher than the same period last year. While this YTD increase is more modest, it still demonstrates steady value growth, suggesting that Devon remains a competitive market where quality homes are able to command strong prices.
Devon Home Sales
Sales Activity: Stronger Summer Demand
In July 2025, 18 homes were sold in Devon, representing a 20% increase from July 2024. This is a welcome boost in sales volume after a slower start to the year. While year-to-date totals still show an overall 6.74% decrease in sales compared to 2024, this jump in July suggests that the market is gaining momentum as we move through the busy summer season.
Summer is traditionally one of the most active times for real estate, as families look to move before the school year begins and the warmer weather makes buying and selling more convenient. This uptick is a sign that Devon remains competitive and in demand.
Average Sale Price
Average Sale Price: A Small Adjustment
While asking prices are up, the average sale price in July 2025 was $371,000, representing a 3.18% decrease from July 2024. Year-to-date, the average sale price is $390,000, down 3.20% from last year.
This small adjustment shows that while sellers are listing higher, buyers are still negotiating to reach fair market values. This balance can be healthy for the market, ensuring that neither side dominates negotiations.
Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Balanced Negotiations
Devon’s average ask-to-sell ratio in July 2025 was 1.000, meaning homes sold for exactly the asking price on average. While this is a slight 0.70% drop from July 2024, it still indicates a balanced market where buyers and sellers are meeting at fair values.
Year-to-date, the ratio sits at 1.003, slightly favouring sellers.
Average Days on Market
Days on Market: Homes Selling Faster
The average days on market in July 2025 dropped to 19 days, which is 17.39% faster than July 2024. Year-to-date, properties are selling in an average of 31 days, a 24.39% improvement compared to last year.
This shows that well-priced, well-presented homes are moving quickly. Even with more listings available, demand is strong enough to keep the selling timeline short.
