Edmonton Realtors Market Report April 2022

All indicators promise that our Spring real estate buying season will be on overdrive during the first quarter.  We are experiencing multiple offers and many homes selling on only a few days.

Whether buying or selling, Real estate is about making smart investment decisions and you need to be prepared and educated in a fast-moving market.

I am happy to talk to you about whether buying or selling makes sense or not for your situation.

Realtors Association of Edmonton September 2020 Housing Market Stats



Pent-up demand, and home is more important than everResidential Unit Sales up 35.55% compared to September 2019.



Most buyers who had planned to purchase in the spring put their plans on hold during March, April and May. More people are now becoming comfortable resuming their search, due to lifting restrictions, more safety precautions, and 3D home tours. Due to the pent-up demand and record low interest rates, the Edmonton real estate market saw an increase in sales this summer, which carried right into September.
 
While the market hasn't yet settled into a 'new normal', and the pandemic has had a severe impact on oil prices and employment, spending time in a home you love is more important than ever.
Good news: The numbers of purchases are back in line with previous years. However, some sub-markets have varied with pricing from last year.
 
See the full REALTORS Association of Edmonton report below for September's stats.


Total residential unit sales in the Edmonton Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) real estate market for September 2020 increased 35.55% compared to September 2019 and decreased 0.21% from August 2020. The number of new residential listings is up year over year, increasing 10.37% from September 2019. New residential listings are up month over month, increasing 5.90% from August 2020. Overall inventory in the Edmonton CMA fell 15.15% from September of last year and decreased 4.04% from August 2020.

For the month of September, single family home unit sales are up 42.79% from September 2019 and stayed the same as August 2020 at 1,188. Condo unit sales increased 7.26% from September 2019 and decreased 2.21% from August 2020.

All residential average prices are up to $376,571, a 7.14% increase from September 2019, and up 0.54% from August 2020. Single family homes sold for an average of $440,020, a 4.73% year-over-year increase from September 2019, and a 0.11% increase from August 2020. Condominiums sold for an average of $232,237, a 6.74% increase year-over-year, and prices are up 1.34% compared to August 2020. Duplex prices dropped 0.89% from September 2019, selling at $340,519, which was a 0.58% decrease from August 2020.

“The Edmonton market has seen an increase in year-over-year unit sales, compared to a slight decrease in month to month sales,” says REALTORS® Association of Edmonton Chair Jennifer Lucas. “There have also been more sales of single-family homes, condos and duplexes compared to September of last year, while we’ve seen stable or decreasing month over month sales in all markets, which is typical for this time of year. Single family home pricing increased 4.73%, duplexes are down 0.89%, and condos are up 6.74% year-over-year.”

Single family homes averaged 47 days on the market, a twelve-day decrease from last year. Condos decreased to an average of 65 days on the market while duplexes averaged 52 days on market, a fifteen-day decrease compared to September 2019.

Realtors Association of Edmonton March 2020 Housing Market Stats



Edmonton’s housing market saw steady home buyer demand to begin March and a leveling off of activity as the month went on and concerns about the COVID-19 outbreak intensified.


Many of the sales recorded in March were in process before the provincial government declared a state of emergency.

 
“The Edmonton market prices have declined in March and we saw a slight decrease in year-over-year unit sales,” says Realtors® Association of Edmonton Chair Jennifer Lucas. “Of course, with the outbreak of a global pandemic and a hard hit to Alberta’s oil and gas sector, this type of market slowing is not surprising. There have been fewer sales of single family homes, condos and duplexes than in March of last year. Single family home pricing decreased -4.64%, duplexes are down -6.28%, and condos are up +2.50% year-over-year.”

The Realtors Association of Edmonton reported that all residential home sales in the region Edmonton Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) for March 2020 decreased -2.59% compared to March 2019, and increased +10.31% from February 2020. For the month of March single family home sales were down -2.02% from March 2019, and up +13.59% from February 2020.  Condo sales decreased -2.04% from March 2019 and increased +1.41% from February 2020.

All residential average prices were down -3.78 % from March 2019, and down -1.97% from February 2020. Average single family home prices saw a -4.64 % decrease from March 2019, and a -5.13% decrease from February 2020. Condominiums sold for an average of $218,613, a +2.50% increase year-over-year, and prices were up +2.87% compared to February 2020.

Realtors were named among the province’s list of essential services. This means that we have a responsibility to do what we can to help residents meet their housing and shelter needs while strictly following the most up-to-date public health orders and physical distancing requirements from our health officials and government agencies. We are trying to work with them to address these needs in the safest and most responsible way possible with home buying and selling protocols.

With physical distancing, it is important to minimize visits to your home in order to minimize the risk of infection for you and others. The following are recommended options from the Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA) and Alberta Health Services for you to consider:


  • using video or 3D tours to create a virtual viewing opportunity in lieu of having an open house, or to limit viewings to serious buyers
  • screening potential buyers before scheduling viewings—ask about their health and recent status to determine the risk
  • placing conditions such as a need to wear masks and gloves
  • create a plan for disinfecting your home after every showing

Every buyer and sellers’ situation is different. If you are planning on making a move in the next year, please contact me directly with any questions you have.  As a REMAX Edmonton Realtor, I have over 15 years’ experience in creating successful selling and buying strategies in both increasing and declining markets.  And, I am hear to help!
