Edmonton Housing Market Update: May 2025 Stats and Trends

Edmonton Housing Market - At a Glance

While Edmonton's real estate market remains favorable to sellers with a Market Health Index of 81.2, increasing inventory levels and slightly slower sales indicate a gradual shift toward more balanced conditions.

May 2025 brought 2,124 home sales and 3,720 fresh listings hitting the market. Homes are selling fast. We're talking a median of just 20 days on market, and with only 1.8 months of inventory available, buyers are facing serious competition. Nearly 28% of homes sold above their asking price, while single-family detached homes averaged $562,457. Even though overall transaction volume has dropped compared to last year, demand clearly isn't going anywhere.
