Edmonton residential real estate listings and sales

Inventory continues to climb, we are well above last year's levels but still well behind what we saw in 2008. We expect to see lots of expired listings by the end of this month which could bring inventory down a bit, we'll have to wait and see.

Edmonton Luxury home market surges

The average residential sale price of Single family homes increased significantly in Edmonton in May, 2010. This was unexpected, but don’t get too excited as averages can be very misleading. It looks like the average was thrown off by a higher number of luxury sales – there were nearly twice as many sales of high end homes in Edmonton in May than there were in April. We’ll have a closer look at the high end market next week.

The average condo sale price meanwhile remained relatively unchanged. The average price per square foot of both single family homes and condos remained relatively unchanged as well, homes increased from $269/square foot in April to $271/square foot in May, and condos remained the same at $235/square foot.

As expected sales of single family homes have fallen back to 2008 levels and are certainly below average. We expect sales to follow a seasonal pattern in line with 2008 – unless something big happens we don’t see anything dramatically influencing sales.
