As we move into early fall, the real estate market in South Surrey and White Rock continues to show signs of a clear shift toward balance. While activity remains steady across all property types, the overall pace has slowed, inventory levels are rising, and both buyers and sellers are recalibrating expectations.

Here’s what we’re seeing on the ground this month:

---

🏡 Detached Homes

Detached home sales decreased slightly year-over-year, while activity picked up month-over-month—a sign that buyers are re-engaging as more choice becomes available.

• Sales: 41 homes sold
• Benchmark Price: $1,777,900 (-8.1% YoY, -1.0% MoM)
• Active Listings: 664 (+14.5% YoY)
• New Listings: 209

🔍 Takeaway:
With detached inventory continuing to rise, buyers have more choice and more leverage than we’ve seen in recent years. Sellers who price realistically and prepare their homes well are still finding success, while move-up buyers may see new opportunities emerge as pricing softens.

🏘 Townhomes

The townhome market experienced softer activity this month, with sales down significantly year-over-year and inventory continuing to grow.

• Sales: 29
• Benchmark Price: $906,800 (-1.6% MoM)
• Active Listings: 340 (+29.3% YoY)
• New Listings: 153

🔍 Takeaway:
This segment continues its transition toward balance. Buyers are negotiating more confidently and taking their time, while sellers are rewarded for thoughtful pricing, strong presentation, and standout marketing.

🏙 Apartments

Condos remain one of the most price-sensitive and opportunity-driven segments of the market. While year-over-year sales increased, pricing has continued to adjust downward—bringing value back into focus.

• Sales: 49
• Benchmark Price: $593,100 (-8.2% YoY)
• Average Price: $653,209 (-13.8% YoY)
• Active Listings: 389
• New Listings: 178

🔍 Takeaway:
This remains the most buyer-friendly category. First-time buyers and investors may find compelling opportunities as pricing adjusts and selection remains strong.
