🏘️ New Listings – Sellers Gaining Confidence
October saw 16 new listings, a 14.29% increase from the same time last year. This brings the YTD total to 276, still 12.38% behind 2024’s pace.
Market Takeaway:
The bump in new listings is good news for buyers, though total inventory remains constrained. If you’re looking to sell before year-end, this is a window of opportunity with reduced competition and motivated buyers.
💰 Average Asking Price – Significant Drop for the Month
The average asking price for October was $1.08 million, which is 20.53% lower than October 2024. However, year-to-date, the average ask price still shows an 8.02% increase, indicating long-term price strength and confidence among sellers.
Interpretation:
Sellers are adjusting asking prices in the fall to better match buyer expectations and close deals before winter. This tactical pricing shift is helping support continued transaction volume.
✅ Sold Properties – Modest Monthly Growth, But YTD Lag
October sales increased by 6.67%, with 16 homes changing hands compared to 15 in October 2024. This uptick suggests that buyer interest remains active despite seasonal slowdowns. However, year-to-date sales are down 22.11%, with 155 properties sold in 2025 compared to 199 the year prior.
What it means:
The drop in annual sales reflects broader economic caution, but the monthly rebound shows that buyers remain engaged—especially for well-priced and unique rural properties.
💵 Average Sale Price – Slight Dip Month-Over-Month
October’s average sale price came in at $767,000, down 3.87% from the previous October. But year-to-date, sale prices remain up 6.89%, landing at $853,000 versus $798,000 in 2024.
Key Insight:
The monthly dip is likely tied to more lower or mid-priced property sales closing this month. Overall, sale prices are still higher in 2025, supporting the narrative that rural real estate in Sturgeon County continues to appreciate.
📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio – Still Strong at Nearly 98%
October’s ask-to-sell ratio was 97.7%, slightly down from 98.2% in October 2024. YTD, however, the ratio is slightly up from 97.9% to 98.0%, showing that sellers are still achieving nearly full list price.
Takeaway:
This is a strong indicator that the market remains stable—buyers are willing to pay close to asking price when homes are well presented and realistically priced.
⏱️ Days on Market – Homes Selling Faster
Homes spent an average of 74 days on market in October, down from 85 days in 2024—a 12.94% improvement. On a year-to-date basis, DOM is down 5.26%, at 72 days compared to 76 last year.
Why this matters:
Homes are moving more efficiently than in previous years, especially if priced appropriately and marketed effectively.

🏡 New Listings: Lower Inventory Than Last Year
October 2025 saw 28 new listings, a 3.45% decrease compared to October 2024
. While not a dramatic drop, it reflects the continued tightening of available inventory.
However, the YTD total of new listings is 491, up 2.94% from 477 last year. This slight gain suggests that while fewer homes were listed in October specifically, the market overall has had more selection in 2025 compared to the same time last year.
Average Asking Price
The average asking price in October 2025 rose to $517,000, which is 10.43% higher than the $468,500 average in October 2024. Sellers are continuing to price confidently, especially for larger acreages or well-maintained homes near key rural communities.
YTD, the average asking price is $486,000, up 5.19% from $462,000 last year. This signals stable upward movement and strong confidence in property values in the region
📈 October Sales: Steady Growth
In October 2025, 23 rural properties were sold, a 4.55% increase from the 22 sales recorded in October 2024. While not a major spike, it’s a positive sign that the market continues to attract buyers even as the year winds down.
On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, 288 properties have sold in 2025, up from 244 in 2024—an 18.03% increase. This consistent growth reflects strong buyer demand and continued interest in rural living just beyond the city limits
Average Sale Price
The average sale price in October reached $428,000, showing a 4.53% year-over-year increase. Though this gain is more modest than some previous months, it confirms continued buyer willingness to pay near-asking price for quality listings.
YTD, the average sale price sits at $443,000, representing a solid 10.93% increase compared to $400,000 in 2024
🏷️ Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Slight Decline in Seller Returns
The average ask-to-sell ratio in October 2025 was 95.5%, which is 0.29% lower than the same month last year. This means that, on average, homes are selling for 4.5% below list price
.On a year-to-date level, the ratio is 96.8%, down 0.47% from 97.3% in 2024. Buyers are still negotiating, but most well-priced properties are achieving nearly full asking price.
🗓️ Days on Market: Homes Selling Faster
One of the most noteworthy changes this month is the dramatic reduction in time on market. Homes in October 2025 sold in just 74 days on average, down 53.46% from 159 days in October 2024
.
YTD, the average days on market has improved to 87 days, down slightly from 90 days in 2024. This acceleration indicates that buyers are making quicker decisions, particularly on turnkey rural properties and priced-to-sell acreages.

Below is a full breakdown of what happened in the Devon real estate market in October, including month-over-month changes, year-to-date comparisons, and what it all means for your buying or selling plans this season.
📊 October 2025 Market Summary
| Metric | October 2025 | % Change vs Oct 2024 |
| Sold Properties | 10 | ↑ 66.67% |
| New Listings | 16 | ↑ 33.33% |

| Average Sale Price | $428,000 | ↑ 9.87% |

| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.992 | ↓ 0.99% |

🏘️ New Listings: Sellers Are Active
October also saw 16 new listings, up 33.33% from last year. This brings the total number of listings so far in 2025 to 154, which is an 18.46% increase over 2024.
This is good news for buyers: while demand remains healthy, the increased supply may lead to better choice, fewer bidding wars, and more favourable negotiating conditions as we move into the slower winter months.
💵 Asking Prices: Strong Confidence from Sellers
The average asking price in October was $442,000, a 14.80% increase compared to October 2024. Year-to-date, the average list price is $413,000, up 4.08% from last year.
This shows continued optimism from sellers, likely driven by strong summer sales, increased buyer activity, and confidence in Devon’s long-term growth. Even with higher asking prices, buyers appear willing to engage — as shown by the next stat.
🔍 Property Sales: Volume Surges in October
Devon saw 10 homes sold in October 2025, which marks a 66.67% increase from October 2024. This jump in activity reflects strong fall demand, possibly from buyers who postponed their purchase over the summer or are trying to secure a home before winter sets in.
On a year-to-date basis, 119 homes have sold in Devon in 2025, which is 5.31% more than the same time last year — a strong performance, especially considering many surrounding markets in Alberta have seen flat or declining numbers.
💰 Sale Prices: Buyers Meet Sellers Closer to Expectations
The average sale price in October was $428,000, an impressive 9.87% increase year-over-year. This is the highest monthly average so far in 2025 and suggests that buyers were willing to pay more in October, especially for well-presented homes.
That said, the year-to-date sale price sits at $390,000, which is 2.14% lower than last year’s YTD average of $399,000. This gap shows that while October was a standout month, earlier months in 2025 included more lower-priced sales, keeping the annual average slightly lower.
⚖️ Ask-to-Sell Ratio: A Slight Dip, Still Balanced
In October, the average ask-to-sell ratio dropped slightly to 0.992, meaning homes sold for 99.2% of their list price. This is a 0.99% decrease from October 2024.
Year-to-date, the ratio is holding steady at 0.996, showing that most homes are still selling very close to asking. The small drop this month may reflect higher list prices and more negotiation room as buyer choice increases.
⏱️ Days on Market: A Major Spike in October
This month’s most dramatic shift was in days on market, which jumped to 65 days, a 983.33% increase from October 2024’s 6-day average.
While that number might seem alarming at first glance, it’s important to note:
The October spike is more of an anomaly than a trend — but it does signal that not all listings are moving quickly, especially if they are priced too high or lack staging and marketing.
📆 Year-to-Date 2025 vs 2024 Comparison
| Metric | 2025 YTD | 2024 YTD | % Change |
| Sold Properties | 119 | 113 | ↑ 5.31% |

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.
📊 Key Market Stats – October 2025
| Metric | October 2025 | YoY Change |
| Sold Properties | 44 | ↓ 31.25% |
| YTD Sold Properties | 720 | ↓ 6.01% |

🆕 Inventory Soars: More Choice, More Competition
The number of new listings jumped dramatically in October:
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 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.
🛑 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 – 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.
Still, a ratio above 98% suggests that most sellers are pricing correctly and that homes are still selling close to list value.
⏳ Homes Taking Longer to Sell
The average time to sell a home in Leduc has increased:
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:
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:
🧭 Why Leduc Still Makes Sense
Even with a cooler month, Leduc remains a smart long-term move:
📊 YTD Comparison: 2025 vs 2024
| Metric | YTD 2025 | YTD 2024 | % Change |
| Sold Properties | 720 | 766 | ↓ 6.01% |
| Average Asking Price | $483,000 | $461,000 | ↑ 4.71% |
| Average Sale Price | $445,000 | $422,000 | ↑ 5.50% |

| Days on Market | 43 | 45 | ↓ 4.44% |
| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.990 | 0.992 | ↓ 0.21% |
🏁 Final Thoughts

As fall deepens across the city, Edmonton’s condo market is entering a cooler phase — but not just because of the weather. While prices are holding or rising, sales activity has notably declined in October, making it a market that demands insight, strategy, and timing whether you’re a buyer or a seller.
This month’s update unpacks the latest numbers and what they mean for those considering making a move in the condo market before year’s end.
📊 October 2025 Condo Market Snapshot
| Metric | October 2025 | October 2024 | % Change |
| Sold Properties | 269 | 359 | ↓ 25.07% |
| Average Asking Price | $267,000 | $230,400 | ↑ 15.89% |
| Average Sale Price | $191,000 | $189,000 | ↑ 1.05% |
| New Listings | 511 | 484 | ↑ 5.58% |
| Days on Market | 75 | 67 | ↑ 11.94% |
| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.962 | 0.960 | ↑ 0.19% |
Let’s explore these changes and what they indicate about Edmonton’s condo landscape.

🏢 Inventory Grows Again: 511 New Listings
October brought 511 new condo listings, a 5.58% increase from 484 in October 2024. Year-to-date, 6,097 condos have been listed, up 4.76% from 5,820 the previous year.
Buyers now have more inventory to choose from — particularly in the under-$250K price point. But for sellers, this means your condo needs to stand out, whether that’s through updated finishes, staging, or creative pricing strategies.
💲 Average Asking Price Surges 15.89%
Despite the decline in sales, the average asking price jumped to $267,000, up a notable 15.89% year-over-year. This is the highest monthly asking price we’ve seen for condos in Edmonton in 2025. It suggests that sellers are maintaining strong expectations — and possibly listing higher-end or renovated units.
YTD, the average asking price is $238,000, a 1.30% increase over 2024’s $235,000 — a sign of moderate but steady upward pricing pressure.
📉 Sales Slump: 25% Fewer Condos Sold in October
October saw just 269 condos sold, a steep 25.07% decrease from the 359 sales recorded in October 2024. This is one of the largest monthly declines in 2025 so far.
On a year-to-date (YTD) basis, 3,330 condos have been sold in 2025, down 8.44% compared to 3,637 by this time last year.
What’s causing the slowdown?
For sellers, this means pricing and marketing are more important than ever. For buyers, this presents a strategic opportunity to shop with more negotiating leverage.
💰 Sale Price Edges Up to $191,000
The average sale price in October 2025 was $191,000, a modest 1.05% increase from last October. Year-to-date, average sale prices are sitting at $207,000, up 5.89% from $196,000 in 2024.
This tells us that while sellers may be listing higher, buyers are still purchasing at more conservative levels — widening the gap between asking and final sold prices.
📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Slightly Improves
Interestingly, the ask-to-sell ratio inched up to 0.962, a 0.19% increase from last year. This means that, on average, condos are selling for about 96.2% of their list price — a solid benchmark for sellers aiming to price competitively and still get strong offers.
⏳ Condos Are Taking Longer to Sell
The average days on market rose to 75 days in October — an 11.94% increase over last year’s 67 days. This is the longest average selling period so far in 2025. Slower absorption times mean sellers need to be patient, while buyers can use this as an advantage when negotiating on properties that have been listed for over a month.
📅 YTD Comparison: 2025 vs 2024
| Metric | 2025 YTD | 2024 YTD | % Change |
| Sold Properties | 3,330 | 3,637 | ↓ 8.44% |
| Average Asking Price | $238,000 | $235,000 | ↑ 1.30% |
| New Listings | 6,097 | 5,820 | ↑ 4.76% |
| Days on Market | 67 | 69 | ↓ 2.90% |
| Average Sale Price | $207,000 | $196,000 | ↑ 5.89% |
| Ask-to-Sell Ratio | 0.967 | 0.968 | ↓ 0.08% |
🔍 Key Takeaways for Buyers
✅ More listings to choose from
✅ Longer average days on market = more negotiating room
✅ Slightly slower competition heading into winter
📌 Tip: Focus on condos that have been listed over 30 days — sellers may be more flexible.
💼 Key Takeaways for Sellers
✅ Prices remain steady despite sales declines
✅ Condos are still selling close to asking
✅ Strong fall listing strategy is crucial
📌 Tip: Stage your condo and work with a REALTOR® who can help you price it strategically for a 2025 sale or early 2026 closing.
🔮 Market Outlook for Winter 2025
With interest rates remaining elevated and affordability still top-of-mind for many buyers, we expect:
The good news? Edmonton condos continue to show resilient pricing, even as unit sales fluctuate — a good sign for long-term investors and buyers looking for stable value in the marketplace.

While some metrics reveal a softening from last year’s unusually brisk conditions, others point toward a stable and healthy housing environment.

From pricing trends to inventory changes and market velocity, these numbers help homeowners and prospective buyers understand where the Fort Saskatchewan market stands today — and where it’s heading next.

New Listings: Inventory Growth Offers More Choice
October brought a notable increase in listing activity, with 82 new listings, marking a 22.39% rise from October 2024. On a year-to-date basis, total new listings stood at 831 compared to 834 last year — virtually unchanged, down by only 0.36%.
This modest inventory growth is welcome news for buyers who have faced limited choices throughout much of 2025. A balanced inflow of listings is helping to keep the market competitive but not overheated. Sellers, meanwhile, are benefiting from increased visibility as buyers expand their search criteria to find homes that meet their budget and lifestyle needs.
The uptick in new listings also reflects growing confidence among homeowners who may have delayed selling earlier in the year. Many are recognizing that despite market normalization, Fort Saskatchewan’s housing sector remains one of the most affordable and stable in the Edmonton area.
Average Asking Price: Slight Dip Suggests Strategic Pricing
The average asking price for October 2025 came in at $456,000, down 2.80% from October 2024. Year-to-date, asking prices have averaged $461,000, also showing a 2.93% decline from 2024.
This slight decrease indicates that sellers are becoming more strategic in setting their listing prices. After a few years of rapid appreciation, many homeowners are aligning their expectations with current buyer affordability levels. This pricing realism has helped keep properties moving rather than sitting stagnant.
Interestingly, despite the lower asking prices, sale prices have remained strong, suggesting that competitively priced listings are still achieving healthy returns — often within 98% of the asking value. This demonstrates that accurate pricing and strong marketing are key to success in today’s balanced market.
Sales Activity: Fewer Transactions but Steady Buyer Demand
In October 2025, 57 homes sold in Fort Saskatchewan — representing a 10.94% decline from the 64 homes sold in October 2024. Despite the drop in monthly sales, the year-to-date total reached 632 transactions, just under 10% fewer than last year. This suggests a market that’s stabilizing after a strong multi-year run, as both buyers and sellers adjust to evolving affordability conditions.
It’s important to note that a modest slowdown in sales volume does not necessarily signal a market downturn. Instead, it often reflects seasonal adjustments and cautious buyer pacing following a period of higher borrowing costs. Even with slightly fewer sales, many listings continue to receive consistent showing activity, indicating that buyer demand remains strong for well-priced properties in desirable neighbourhoods.
Average Sale Price: Strength in the Mid-Range Market
In contrast to the dip in list prices, the average sale price in October 2025 reached $461,000, marking a 2.20% increase from October 2024. On a year-to-date basis, the average sale price is $463,000, up 4.40% compared to last year.
This increase highlights that Fort Saskatchewan continues to attract motivated buyers who see long-term value in the community’s real estate. The strongest sales activity has been observed in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range, where modern detached homes and newer townhomes remain attainable compared to many neighbouring municipalities.
The consistent upward movement in sale prices year-over-year underscores the city’s appeal as both a residential and investment destination. New infrastructure, growing amenities, and proximity to Edmonton’s northeast employment corridors have contributed to maintaining buyer confidence in the local market.
Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Strong Market Confidence
The average ask-to-sell ratio in October 2025 was 0.985, down slightly by 1.17% from October 2024, indicating that most homes sold for 98.5% of their asking price. Year-to-date, the ratio remains exceptionally strong at 0.998, an improvement of 0.57% compared to 2024.
This level of pricing performance underscores how Fort Saskatchewan continues to operate as a balanced market. Buyers are negotiating, but sellers are still realizing close-to-list prices — a sign of mutual confidence and realistic expectations on both sides.
Days on Market: Faster Turnover Reflects Continued Buyer Interest
Homes sold faster in October 2025, averaging 43 days on market, compared to 47 days in October 2024 — a reduction of 8.51%. Year-to-date, properties are taking 45 days to sell, which is 22.41% faster than last year’s 58-day average.
This shorter selling timeline signals that demand is keeping pace with supply, especially for homes that are attractively priced and well-maintained. Buyers remain decisive when the right property appears, and competitive pricing continues to drive multiple-offer scenarios in certain segments.
Sellers who prepare their homes properly and work with an experienced REALTOR® are still achieving quick, favourable results. This is particularly true in family-oriented subdivisions where limited inventory and steady buyer traffic have sustained solid sales momentum.
Year-to-Date Market Analysis
The first ten months of 2025 reveal a consistent pattern of stability across Fort Saskatchewan’s housing sector:
In short, the numbers tell the story of a market that has balanced itself after several years of accelerated activity, creating opportunities for both buyers and sellers to make well-informed moves.
Buyer Guidance: A Window of Opportunity
For buyers, Fort Saskatchewan continues to offer strong value compared to Edmonton and St. Albert. With prices averaging in the mid-$400,000s, the market presents a prime opportunity for those looking to purchase their first home or upsize affordably.
Some key takeaways for buyers this fall:
Whether you’re relocating for work, investing in rental opportunities, or seeking a family-friendly community, Fort Saskatchewan remains one of the most balanced and affordable options in the Edmonton region.
Seller Guidance: Pricing and Presentation Are Key
For sellers, the October data suggests it’s still a great time to list — particularly if you approach the market strategically. With sales holding steady and homes selling in under six weeks on average, sellers who position their properties competitively are seeing solid results.
To maximize outcomes:
Even with modest price fluctuations, Fort Saskatchewan’s market fundamentals remain sound. Sellers who adapt to evolving conditions are well-positioned for success as 2025 draws to a close.
Market Forecast: A Balanced Finish to 2025
Looking ahead, Fort Saskatchewan’s housing market is expected to remain steady through the final quarter of 2025. With strong employment trends in the industrial and petrochemical sectors, combined with affordable homeownership opportunities, the city continues to attract both local and relocating buyers.
As mortgage rates show signs of potential easing in early 2026, demand may gradually strengthen — particularly in entry-level and mid-range segments. However, with construction costs and supply remaining relatively stable, large pricing spikes are unlikely.
Overall, expect a balanced and sustainable market through the end of the year:
Conclusion: Fort Saskatchewan’s Market Demonstrates Lasting Resilience
October 2025 reinforces what many already know — Fort Saskatchewan remains one of the most stable and desirable housing markets in the Edmonton metropolitan area. With homes selling faster, prices holding firm, and buyer activity remaining consistent, the city continues to offer a perfect blend of affordability, quality of life, and investment potential.

📉 New Listings Drop Slightly
October saw 134 new listings, a 9.46% decrease compared to last year. This modest decline in new supply is typical for fall as fewer homeowners list before the holiday season.

🏷️ Asking Prices Jump 18.41%
The average asking price hit $596,000, an impressive 18.41% increase year-over-year. Sellers are listing higher due to confidence in market performance and rising property values.

St. Albert saw 127 homes sold in October 2025, compared to 119 in the same month last year. This increase suggests continued buyer engagement despite the typical seasonal cooling.

🏡 New Listings Climb Again – 12.73% Increase
There were 1,340 new single-family listings added in October 2025—an increase of 12.73% compared to the same time last year. Year-to-date, there have been 14,700 listings, which is 12.27% more than in 2024.
This rise in inventory has helped moderate the market and create more options for buyers, especially those entering the market during the off-season. However, for sellers, this increase in supply also means more competition, making property presentation and pricing strategy critical for success.
💵 Average Sale Price Slips, But Year-to-Date Still Strong
The average sale price for a single-family home in Edmonton in October was $539,000, showing a 1.88% decrease compared to October 2024. This is the second month in a row that monthly sale prices have dipped slightly after sustained growth earlier in the year.
However, looking at the YTD sale price average of $555,000, we still see a 5.44% increase over the same period last year. This demonstrates that, despite month-over-month fluctuations, home values remain on a positive trajectory over the long term.
🏘️ Detached Sales Decline in October
Sales of single-family homes dropped to 819 units, representing a 10.98% decrease compared to October 2024. This marks one of the sharper month-over-month declines seen in 2025, pointing to a typical seasonal slowdown as we head into the cooler months.
Year-to-date, a total of 8,679 homes have sold, which is 5.61% fewer than the same period in 2024. This trend aligns with broader market expectations, as many buyers who moved early in the year have stepped back to reassess affordability and interest rates.
For sellers, this shift means that setting the right price and preparing a compelling listing has never been more important.
💵 Average Sale Price Slips, But Year-to-Date Still Strong

Days on MLS®
⏳ Homes Taking Longer to Sell
The average days on market in October was 58 days, up 5.45% from the same month last year. This is a notable increase from summer, when homes were moving closer to the 40-day mark.
Still, on a year-to-date basis, homes are selling in 49 days, which is nearly a week faster than in 2024 (when the average was 54 days). This shows that although October is slower, Edmonton homes are still moving efficiently overall—just not as quickly as in peak spring and summer months.

Sellers came into October with confidence, setting an average asking price of $985,000—an 18.64% increase year-over-year. This marks one of the highest average monthly asking prices reported in 2025.

🔻 Sales Dip 30%, But YTD Volume Still Up
Only 28 acreage properties sold in October 2025—a 30% decline compared to October 2024, which saw 40 sales. While this may seem like a slowdown, it's worth noting that year-to-date sales remain up by 3.97%, with 419 properties sold so far in 2025 compared to 403 in the same period last year
💡 What This Means:
📉 Sale Prices Dip in October, but YTD Values Are Rising

📋 New Listings: More Homes Hitting the Market
Inventory has been a key talking point all year, and October was no exception. The city recorded 2,560 new listings during the month — a 14.43% increase over October 2024.
More significantly, the YTD total for 2025 is 28,400 listings, which is a 12.14% increase from the 25,300 recorded in 2024. This surge in listings is giving buyers more choice and less urgency, which could explain the slight cooling in sales. However, it’s also giving sellers a reason to price competitively and prepare homes for showings to stand out in a growing pool of inventory.
🏷️ Average Asking Price: Sellers Holding Strong
The average asking price in October rose to $489,000, a 3.58% increase year-over-year. This suggests that sellers are still confident in Edmonton's value proposition and are not drastically cutting list prices despite fewer sales.
On a year-to-date basis, the average asking price for 2025 sits at $481,000, which is up 4.36% from $461,000 in 2024.
This price growth shows continued long-term appreciation and supports the notion that Edmonton remains one of Canada's most affordable and stable housing markets.
🏠 Sold Properties: Demand Cools, But Not Gone
In October 2025, 1,470 properties were sold across Edmonton – a 16.22% decrease from the same time last year. This decline reflects ongoing caution among buyers and perhaps a seasonal cooling typical of the fall months.
More importantly, year-to-date sales sit at 16,800, marking a 5.66% decline compared to 17,800 in 2024
While the market may feel slower than last year, this moderation is helping shift Edmonton toward a more balanced environment after a few years of frenzied activity.
💰 Average Sale Price: Moderate but Steady Growth
The average sale price in October was $430,000, up 2.01% from October 2024. Despite a slower pace of transactions, prices are not falling — indicating that buyers are still willing to pay fair market value for well-presented homes.
Year-to-date, the average sale price stands at $434,000, reflecting a 6.17% increase over last year’s $409,000. For homeowners considering a sale, this continued appreciation supports positive equity growth and return on investment, particularly in newer or renovated properties.
📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio: Holding Steady
The average ask-to-sell ratio was 0.977 in October, meaning homes sold for approximately 97.7% of their list price. This is a 0.72% dip compared to last year, suggesting minor negotiation room is creeping back into the market.
Year-to-date, the ask-to-sell ratio is 0.988, identical to 2024, showing that sellers are still achieving close to list price despite slower activity. This is particularly important for sellers to understand: pricing your home correctly from day one is crucial in today’s environment — overpricing could cost valuable days on the market.
🕒 Days on Market: Slight Uptick Signals Market Shift
Homes in Edmonton spent an average of 60 days on the market in October 2025, which is 9.09% longer than the same period last year.
Interestingly, despite this October uptick, the year-to-date average is only 50 days, which is actually 9.09% faster than 2024’s 55-day average.
This may indicate that spring and summer sales were strong, helping reduce YTD averages, while autumn saw a slight slowdown, likely due to increased listings and changing buyer timelines.
