10 Reasons Why Edmonton is One of Canada's Top Places to Buy a Home in 2025

Edmonton's real estate market is buzzing. Home resales are nearing all-time highs and strong in-migration is fueling demand. Despite this activity, prices remain accessible, but Canada’s real estate landscape is poised for change.

The federal government's recent decision to reduce immigration aims to alleviate housing pressures, but it also introduces uncertainties that could impact demand and affordability. And with talk of U.S. tariffs possibly disrupting supply chains, today’s market pricing may not last.

Buyers getting into the real estate market now are positioning themselves ahead of what could be another wave of uncertainty in our country. Change is coming, and…

Off-Market vs. Full MLS Exposure–What’s the Best Choice For You?

In a market where homes are selling fast and often above asking, it’s no surprise that some Edmonton homeowners are being approached with private offers before ever listing their property. The convenience can be tempting… but without full exposure, are you really getting what your home is worth?

In this blog post we’re exploring if selling your home off-market in Edmonton is the smart move... or a costly mistake.

Tempted by an Off-Market Offer? Read This First

If you’ve been approached by someone wanting to buy your home off-market, you might be wondering if it’s worth considering. At first glance, skipping the traditional MLS listing process might seem appealing—fewer showings,…

There’s only one way to describe Edmonton’s real estate market: it’s fast and furious. 

It truly is a sellers market - so if you are thinking of waiting to list your home in the spring - don’t wait! Spring is already here. There is currently incredibly high demand for homes which is further complicated by extremely low inventory in the Edmonton market. 

“There truly just aren’t enough homes on the market to satisfy the number of buyers we have looking, at all price points,” says Jason Holland of Holland and Associates. 

“It means we have maybe 24-48 hours from the time a house hits the market, to show it and get an offer in. We’re seeing homes go above asking price because of multiple offers. We’ve even seen up to 6 or 7 multiple offers on a…

When you hear the phrase luxury living, many people think New York, California, Toronto and Vancouver – even Calgary. They don’t often think of Edmonton. 

But think again!

Most of this luxury moving and shaking is happening inside Edmonton’s mature neighbourhoods on the city’s west-side, where new luxury infills are rejuvenating these mature neighbourhoods and elevating them with high-class design that takes advantage of their epic river valley views. 

“Edmonton has quiet wealth. It’s not flashy. There is a lot of wealth in this city but it is understated. It’s not like Calgary or Vancouver or even Toronto,” says realtor Kerri-lyn Holland. 

In the last year, Edmonton’s luxury market has exploded. Over the last 12 months it has…

It’s officially been one year since we all started spending the majority of our time at home. It’s no wonder that those outdated kitchen cabinets, the dog pee stains on the carpet, the lack of office space, the scratches in the hardwood, the dents in the living room walls, and the lack of storage space, is all you can see when you look around your home, at the same walls, day-in and day-out.

If you want to remodel every square inch of your home, you’re not alone. How much longer can you possibly stare at the same four walls of inadequate space design?  

But before you pull out the measuring tape, there are lots of things to consider before you start swinging the sledgehammer.

Most people want to start their renovation beautifying the…

On June 3rd, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) took the mortgage industry by surprise when they announced significant changes to their underwriting guidelines, effective July 1st. We’ve teamed up with Mortgage Associate Michelle Lapierre of Mortgage Tailors to share a breakdown of some of the changes and how they’re impacting buyers. Here’s her advice:

These will impact buyers with less than 20% down. The following week the other two mortgage default insurers in Canada, Genworth and Canada Guaranty, announced they would not be following the same tightening measures. This has taken most of the impact out of CMHC's changes, as lenders will just send files that do not fit CMHC's tighter measures to the two insurers that allow them. That…
