The Edmonton real estate market showed continued stability and strength through September 2025. Even with a typical seasonal slowdown, home prices remained consistent, and buyer interest stayed steady across most property types. Overall, the numbers confirm that Edmonton continues to be one of Alberta’s most balanced and affordable housing markets.
Whether you are buying, selling, or simply watching trends, this update offers a clear look at how the market performed as we move deeper into fall.
1. Overall Market Performance
In September, the average residential selling price in Edmonton was $420,130, a small 2 percent dip compared to August but still up 4 percent from the same time last year. This shows that despite slower activity, prices have held strong through 2025.
The median residential price reached $410,000, which is unchanged from August and nearly 4 percent higher than September 2024. This consistency reflects solid buyer confidence and healthy seller activity.
Across the Greater Edmonton Area, which includes surrounding communities like Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Spruce Grove, and Leduc, the average price was $452,908, up 3 percent year-over-year. The median price rose to $435,000, showing stable growth across the region.
2. Detached Homes: Steady and Reliable
Detached homes remain the most popular property type in Edmonton.
The average price for a detached home in September was $540,118, down slightly by 2 percent month-over-month, but still up 0.3 percent from 2024. The median detached price was $497,000, a 1.4 percent annual increase.
In the surrounding area, detached homes averaged $554,084, with a median of $510,000. The average time on market for detached properties was about 38 days, similar to last year.
Detached homes continue to attract families and long-term investors who value space, privacy, and appreciation potential. For sellers, steady pricing and consistent demand make this segment dependable even during slower seasons.
3. Semi-Detached Homes: Modest but Meaningful Growth
The average price for semi-detached homes in Edmonton was $428,531, up 2 percent from August and 4 percent higher than last year. The median price held at $420,000, showing consistent value.
In the Greater Edmonton Area, the average semi-detached price reached $434,000, a 5.3 percent yearly increase, while the median was $424,000, up 4.2 percent.
This property type continues to appeal to homebuyers who want more space than a townhouse without the higher cost of a detached home.
4. Townhouses and Row Homes: Stronger Yearly Gains
Townhouses and row homes showed solid price performance again in September.
The average townhouse price in Edmonton was $296,339, just 1 percent below August but 4 percent higher than last year. The median price climbed to $300,000, marking a 7.4 percent annual increase — one of the strongest among all housing types.
In the Greater Edmonton Area, the average price reached $303,382, and the median was $304,350. These homes continue to offer great value for buyers who want affordability combined with a comfortable, low-maintenance lifestyle.
Townhouses are also selling relatively quickly, thanks to steady demand from first-time buyers and families looking to downsize.
5. Apartment Condominiums: Affordable and Consistent
The average condo price in Edmonton stood at $200,936, up 4 percent year-over-year but slightly lower than in August. The median condo price was $188,750, showing long-term price stability.
In the Greater Edmonton Area, apartments averaged $207,363, with a median of $192,750. Condos remain the most affordable housing choice and continue to draw interest from young professionals and investors seeking strong rental potential.
6. Sales Activity and Inventory Levels
Sales followed typical fall patterns. Edmonton recorded 1,456 total sales in September, an 11.4 percent monthly decrease but only 5.3 percent below the same time in 2024.
The Greater Edmonton Area recorded 2,192 sales, down 7.8 percent from August but showing steady annual performance.
Inventory levels remain balanced, which supports a healthy market.
Edmonton reported 3.6 months of inventory, and the Greater Edmonton Area had 3.2 months. These figures indicate that neither buyers nor sellers have a significant advantage, creating fair conditions for both sides.
New listings remained active, with 2,640 new listings in Edmonton and 3,645 in the Greater Edmonton Area. Buyers continue to have a solid range of options to choose from.
7. Time on Market
Homes continue to sell at a steady pace.
The average days on market in Edmonton was 38 days, nearly identical to 39 days last year. Semi-detached homes are selling fastest at around 36 days, while condos average 47 days.
This shows that well-presented and competitively priced properties are still attracting serious buyers and closing efficiently.
8. Edmonton vs Surrounding Communities
Both Edmonton and nearby cities are performing well, though with small differences.
The City of Edmonton remains the center for affordability and convenience, while the Greater Edmonton Area tends to have slightly higher prices due to newer developments and larger lots.
Communities like Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove, St. Albert, and Leduc continue to attract families and professionals who prefer suburban space while staying close to the city. Overall, both the city and surrounding areas remain attractive for buyers at all price levels.
9. Benchmark Price Trends
The average benchmark price in Edmonton reached $409,000, a 3.5 percent increase compared to last year. In the Greater Edmonton Area, it was $424,000, up 4.2 percent year-over-year.
These results confirm gradual and sustainable price growth driven by steady local demand.
10. What Buyers and Sellers Should Know
For Buyers
Market conditions continue to favor well-prepared buyers. Prices are stable, and there is a healthy mix of listings available. Townhouses and condos provide affordable entry points, while detached homes offer long-term investment potential.
Working with a local expert like Prashant Mahay from Edmonton Property Finders ensures you get accurate advice, access to current listings, and support at every stage of your purchase.
For Sellers
Sellers benefit from consistent prices and steady demand. Homes that are priced right and marketed well are still selling in about a month on average.
With benchmark prices holding firm and many buyers still active, now is a smart time to list before the slower winter period begins.
11. Market Outlook for Late 2025
As Edmonton heads into the last quarter of 2025, the outlook remains positive. Economic growth, strong migration, and continued affordability all support the housing market.
Compared to larger Canadian cities, Edmonton offers excellent value, attracting both local and out-of-province buyers looking for stability and opportunity.
Experts expect prices to remain steady through the end of the year. Entry-level and mid-range homes will likely see the most activity, while higher-end homes continue to attract selective buyers.
