🏘️ Inventory Continues to Expand

One of the biggest stories in Beaumont this year continues to be inventory growth.

A total of 111 new listings came to market in May, representing a substantial 30.59% increase compared to May 2025.

This brings the year-to-date total to 408 new listings, up 17.58% from the same period last year.

This increase in inventory provides buyers with:

• More homes to choose from
• Greater negotiating power
• Additional time to evaluate options

For sellers, however, the growing inventory means increased competition. Proper pricing, professional marketing, and strong presentation have become increasingly important to stand out from competing listings.

Average Asking Price

💰 Average Asking Price in Beaumont

The average asking price in Beaumont was $591,000 in May 2026, representing a slight 1.52% decrease from May 2025.

While the monthly figure softened slightly, the broader trend remains positive. Year-to-date, Beaumont's average asking price sits at $600,000, up 2.09% compared to 2025.

This suggests sellers remain confident in the long-term strength of the Beaumont market, while also adjusting pricing strategies to align with increased competition and changing buyer expectations.

Communities such as Triomphe Estates, Forest Heights, Dansereau Meadows, and Place Chaleureuse continue attracting strong interest from buyers seeking newer homes, larger lots, and family-oriented neighbourhoods.

Beaumont Home Sales

📈 Sales Activity Remains Strong

Beaumont recorded 53 residential property sales in May 2026, only one sale fewer than May 2025. While that represents a modest 1.85% decline year-over-year, the market remains remarkably active considering the significant increase in inventory available to buyers.

The monthly sales chart shows Beaumont maintaining consistent activity throughout the first five months of the year. Sales have steadily improved from January's 21 transactions to May's 53 sales, reflecting the typical seasonal increase in buyer activity as spring transitions into summer.

Although year-to-date sales remain slightly behind 2025 levels, the difference is minimal. Beaumont has recorded 184 sales so far in 2026, compared to 188 during the same period last year, representing just a 2.13% decrease.

Average Sale Price

🏡 Average Sale Price Reaches New Highs

One of the strongest indicators in May's report was the continued growth in sold prices.

The average sale price climbed to $582,000, representing a significant 9.43% increase compared to May 2025.

This increase demonstrates that buyers remain willing to pay premium prices for desirable homes despite rising inventory levels.

Year-to-date, Beaumont's average sale price has reached $554,000, up 3.81% compared to the same period in 2025.

This is particularly encouraging because it shows property values continuing to appreciate even as inventory expands and buyers gain more options.

The monthly sales price graph included in the report shows pricing trending upward throughout the first half of 2026, with May posting one of the strongest average sale prices recorded in recent months.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Remains Healthy

The average ask-to-sell ratio in May was 98.3%, down slightly from last year.

This means sellers are still receiving very close to their asking price, with homes selling for approximately 98 cents on every dollar listed.

Although negotiation has become more common, Beaumont remains a healthy market where properly priced homes continue attracting strong offers.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Homes Continue Taking Longer to Sell

While pricing remains strong, homes are taking considerably longer to sell than they were a year ago.

The average days on market increased to 83 days, up 84.44% from May 2025.

Year-to-date, Beaumont homes are averaging 82 days on market, compared to 43 days during the same period last year — an increase of 90.70%.

This trend reflects:

• Increased inventory levels
• More selective buyers
• Longer decision-making timelines
• Greater emphasis on pricing and presentation

The days of buyers rushing into offers within hours of a property hitting the market have largely disappeared. Today's buyers are conducting more research, viewing more properties, and negotiating more carefully.

📊 Year-to-Date Market Comparison

🧠 What This Means for Buyers

Buyers are benefiting from the most balanced Beaumont market we've seen in several years.

Advantages include:

✔ More inventory to choose from
✔ Less pressure to compete immediately
✔ Greater negotiating power
✔ Stable long-term property values

While home prices continue rising, buyers now have more time and flexibility to find the right property.

💼 What This Means for Sellers

Sellers continue benefiting from strong property values and healthy demand.

However, success in today's market requires:

✔ Competitive pricing
✔ Professional marketing
✔ High-quality photography
✔ Strong home presentation

The good news is that Beaumont homes continue selling at nearly full asking price and average sale prices are reaching new highs.

🔮 Summer 2026 Market Outlook

Looking ahead to June and July, Beaumont appears poised for a healthy summer market.

Key trends to watch include:

📈 Continued inventory growth
📈 Stable sales activity
📈 Ongoing price appreciation
📉 Increased competition among sellers

If inventory continues to rise at its current pace, buyers will likely maintain strong negotiating leverage while sellers will need to remain strategic with pricing.

Sherwood Park New  MLS® Listings

📦 Inventory Levels Continue to Improve

One of the most positive developments for buyers is the continued increase in available inventory.

Sherwood Park saw 207 new listings hit the market in May, a 5.08% increase compared to May 2025. Year-to-date, there have been 803 new listings, up 9.40% from last year.

More inventory provides buyers with:

• Greater selection
• More flexibility
• Reduced pressure compared to previous years

For sellers, however, increasing inventory means more competition and emphasizes the importance of proper pricing, staging, and marketing.

Average Asking Price

🏷️ Sellers Continue to See Strong Pricing

The average asking price in May reached $533,000, up 2.58% from May 2025. Sellers remain confident in the market and continue to price homes competitively while still achieving strong results.

The year-to-date average asking price now sits at $529,000, representing a 3.64% increase compared to last year.

This ongoing growth in asking prices demonstrates confidence among homeowners while also reflecting the strength of demand in the marketplace.

Sherwood Park Home Sales

🏠 Sales Activity Accelerates

Sherwood Park recorded 167 residential property sales in May 2026, representing a substantial 14.38% increase over May 2025. This marks one of the strongest monthly sales performances we've seen so far this year and highlights the continued appeal of the community to buyers.

Year-to-date, sales have reached 596 homes, up 4.93% from the same period last year. This increase demonstrates that buyer confidence remains strong despite higher home prices and ongoing affordability concerns in some segments of the market.

The continued rise in sales activity suggests that many buyers who may have delayed purchasing decisions earlier in the year are now entering the market as inventory improves and confidence grows.

Average Sale Price

💰 Average Sale Price Reaches $539,000

Home values in Sherwood Park continued their upward trajectory in May, with the average sale price climbing to $539,000, a 1.72% increase compared to May 2025. While price growth has moderated compared to some of the larger gains seen over the past two years, the market continues to demonstrate healthy appreciation.

Year-to-date, the average sale price now stands at $525,000, up 3.29% compared to 2025. This consistent growth reflects the ongoing demand for homes in Sherwood Park and reinforces the community's reputation as a stable long-term investment.

The monthly sales price chart included in the report continues to show a generally upward trend throughout the past year, with only minor seasonal fluctuations. This is encouraging news for homeowners and investors alike.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Shows a More Balanced Market

The average ask-to-sell ratio was 1.003 in May, meaning homes sold for approximately 100.3% of their asking price. While this remains an excellent result for sellers, it is slightly lower than the 1.015 ratio recorded in May 2025.

Year-to-date, the ask-to-sell ratio sits at 1.002, compared to 1.015 last year.

This suggests:

• Buyers have slightly more negotiating power
• Sellers need to be strategic with pricing
• Well-priced homes still attract strong offers

Overall, the market remains healthy but is becoming more balanced than it was during peak seller-market conditions.

Average Days on Market

⏱️ Days on Market Increase

Homes in Sherwood Park spent an average of 29 days on market before selling, compared to 23 days during May 2025. This represents a 26.09% increase year-over-year.

While homes are taking longer to sell than they were during some of the hottest market conditions, 29 days remains a relatively healthy selling timeframe.

The year-to-date average now sits at 35 days, compared to 31 days in 2025.

This increase reflects:

• More inventory available
• Buyers taking more time to compare options
• A market gradually moving toward balance
