A cold snap in Edmonton isn’t just uncomfortable — it’s revealing. While you’re bundled up indoors, your home is being put to the test. If you’re thinking of listing your home in the coming months, now is the perfect time to pay attention to how your property holds up during extreme temperatures.

Winter Can Reveal What Buyers Will Notice Later

Cold weather has a way of exposing issues that don’t show up in the summer. Drafty windows, uneven heating, poor insulation, or condensation on window panes can all become obvious in a deep freeze. These are the same things that prospective buyers will notice when they walk through your home in winter or early spring.

Taking mental (or written) notes now allows you to address problems gradually — before you’re on the market. It’s not about fixing everything today, but about understanding what improvements can increase your home’s appeal and perceived value.

Get Ahead With a Plan

If you wait until spring to start preparing, you’ll be competing with a flood of new listings and rushed sellers. That’s why I always recommend starting early. Even in winter, we can get professional photos done, line up inspections or small repairs, and plan a smart launch strategy.

By the time you’re ready to list, the heavy lifting is already done — and you’ve had the chance to position your home in the best possible light.

A Trusted Advisor Through Every Season

I’ve helped hundreds of Edmonton families sell with confidence, even in winter markets. I’ll help you understand your home’s strengths, price it with purpose, and make sure buyers see its full potential — no matter the season.

Let’s build a plan that works with your timeline, not against the weather.

As we move into the final stretch of 2025, Edmonton’s real estate market remains strong, consistent, and full of opportunity — especially for sellers and those considering making a move before year-end.

Sales Activity Still Outpacing 10-Year Trends

October saw 2,162 total residential unit sales, which marks a 21.9% increase compared to October 2024. Notably, that’s 35.4% above the 10-year average for this month — a clear sign of continued momentum. Detached homes made up the bulk of activity, with 1,296 units sold, a 14.9% year-over-year increase.

Prices Continue to Climb

The benchmark price for all residential homes rose to $397,600, a 6.5% increase from this time last year. Detached homes now sit at a benchmark of $485,800, representing a healthy 7.2% increase year-over-year.

This kind of consistent price growth — paired with active buyer demand — means homeowners considering listing still have a prime window to capitalize before the year ends.

Inventory Remains Tight

While new listings reached 2,478, total inventory remains lower than average at 5,806 active listings, down 12.6% from last year. This seller-favorable supply gap has kept competition high and days on market relatively low.

What It Means for You

If you’ve been thinking about selling, now’s the time to act. Buyer activity is strong, inventory is lean, and prices continue to trend upward. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or just curious what your home might be worth — I’d be happy to walk you through your options.

A Balanced Market Shifting Toward Sellers

October’s numbers show that while we’re still technically in a balanced market, the scales are tilting in favor of sellers. Fewer days on market combined with increased buyer activity signal that well-priced, well-marketed homes are moving quickly — often with multiple offers. Condos and townhomes are also seeing renewed interest, with benchmark prices up 7.1% and 8.8% year-over-year respectively.

With interest rates stabilizing and many buyers wanting to settle before the holidays, the next 30–60 days may be your best window to make a move.

Let’s talk strategy — and make this market work for you.
