A Comprehensive Analysis of Edmonton’s Residential Real Estate from July 17 to July 23, 2024

The Edmonton real estate market has demonstrated consistent activity with some fluctuations in the third week of July 2024. This blog offers a detailed breakdown of the week’s market statistics, including unit sales, new listings, average prices, and median prices, as reported by the Realtors® Association of Edmonton. Understanding these trends is crucial for anyone looking to make informed decisions in Edmonton’s dynamic housing market.

Unit Sales and Trends

During the week of July 17 to July 23, 2024, Edmonton saw a slight decrease in unit sales with 662 homes sold, marking a 1% drop from the previous week. This minor decline suggests a stable market with sustained buyer activity, possibly influenced by seasonal adjustments or slight shifts in buyer sentiment.

New Listings Overview

The number of new listings in the market decreased by 7% to 858, compared to the previous week. This reduction in new listings might indicate a tightening of available inventory, which can affect market dynamics by potentially increasing competition among buyers for the available homes.

Price Fluctuations

The average price of residential properties in Edmonton remained stable at $438,000, showing no change from the previous week. This stability in average prices suggests a balance in the types of properties being sold, with no significant shifts towards either higher-end or lower-end sales dominating the market this week.

The median price saw a slight decrease of 1%, coming in at $408,000. This decrease in the median price is less pronounced than the average, indicating that the majority of homes sold are still fetching prices close to the market average, with fewer transactions at extreme price points.

Market Implications

For sellers in Edmonton, the stable average prices and slightly reduced median prices suggest that while the market remains favorable, pricing properties competitively is crucial to attract buyers, especially with the slight reduction in unit sales and new listings.

For buyers, the decrease in new listings and a slight drop in median prices may signal a good opportunity to enter the market before any potential increases in demand or prices. However, buyers should remain vigilant and ready to act quickly, as the number of new listings is lower, and desirable properties may attract multiple offers.
