The Edmonton real estate market has been nothing short of dynamic in recent months. September 2023 shows impressive statistics that underline the city's enduring appeal. Sales in the Edmonton area surged significantly, showcasing a remarkable 31% increase over the previous September. A standout trend was the strong demand for apartment and townhouse-style condos as buyers sought affordable housing options in response to the region's increasingly competitive rental market.
