Edmonton Real Estate Market – May 2025 Update: A Strong Seller’s Market
Imagine you're shopping for a home in Edmonton this May. You’ve been pre-approved, you're excited, but you're quickly realizing… you’re not the only one!
Homes are selling fast — most within about 30 days, sometimes even faster if the house is well-priced and shows well. Think of a nice detached home in Terwillegar or Windermere — if it's listed on a Thursday, it might have multiple offers by Sunday.
Now, let’s say you're looking at a single-family home. Back in 2024, a decent one might’ve cost you around $530,000. But today? It’s closer to $585,000. That’s a $55,000 jump in one year. So, if you're waiting for prices to drop… they haven't.
Sellers are in a strong position. Many are getting top dollar, especially if the property is move-in ready or renovated. For example, a home with a finished basement, newer roof, and backing onto a park could get 3-5 offers — maybe even more.
One of my clients listed a clean, well-kept home in the southwest. We had 10 showings in 3 days and 2 offers — it sold above asking.
So what kind of market is this?
It’s a seller’s market — which means:
Sellers have the upper hand
Buyers must act fast
Homes are appreciating in value
Even condos and townhouses — usually slower to grow — are catching up. A basic condo that used to sell for $200K might now be going for $218K or more.
Summary:
There are more buyers than good listings.
Prices are going up.
Sellers are happy.
Buyers need to be quick, pre-approved, and competitive.
