The Greater Edmonton real estate market closed 2025 from a position of strength, even as conditions began to normalize. A total of 26,835 homes sold in the Edmonton area in 2025, down 6% from 2024 but still above levels seen in 2021 through 2023. With a total of 39,381 listings, an 8% year-over-year increase, buyers had more to choose from in 2025. Despite this, inventory remained below long-term norms for much of the year, sustaining seller-favourable conditions across most property types.

Prices continued to advance at a measured but healthy pace. The annual average single-family home price rose 6.4% to $570,045, while townhouses increased 4.8% to $304,553 and apartment condominiums gained 5.5% to $211,388. These gains reflect ongoing demand pressure…

Price growth, however, remains intact. The benchmark price for single-family homes rose 7.5% year-over-year to $508,000. Apartment-style condominiums increased 1% to $196,700, while townhouses saw a 1% gain to $272,400.
