New Listings: 954

There were 954 new listings added to the Greater Edmonton Area market between August 12 and August 18.

This represents a 6% decrease compared with the previous period shown in the market data.

For buyers, new listings are an important number to watch because they reflect the number of properties being introduced to the market. For sellers, listing activity provides useful context when considering how much competition may be available for buyers' attention.

Unit Sales: 499

The Greater Edmonton Area recorded 499 unit sales during the same period, representing a 9% decrease.

Sales activity is one of the key indicators used to follow market movement. Looking at sales alongside new listings and prices gives a broader picture than focusing on any single number.

Average Price: $482,000

The average price was $482,000, an increase of 2%.

The average price provides a general measure of the prices recorded across the market during the period. While it is useful for tracking overall movement, individual properties can sell for significantly different amounts depending on factors such as property type, location, condition, and features.

Median Price: $443,000

The median price was $443,000, remaining unchanged.

The median represents the midpoint of the reported sale prices, meaning half of the sales were above this figure and half were below it. Looking at the median alongside the average price can provide additional context when reviewing weekly market activity.

Following the Edmonton Real Estate Market

Weekly market updates are a useful way to stay informed about changes in listing activity, sales, and prices across the Greater Edmonton Area.

However, market-wide statistics are only part of the picture. If you are considering buying or selling, the most useful information will also depend on your specific property, neighbourhood, price range, and goals.

For homeowners thinking about selling, understanding current competition and recent sales can help provide context for a pricing conversation. Buyers can also use current market information as one piece of the decision-making process when evaluating available properties.
