Inventory levels in Edmonton high as summer market sales begin to wane

Activity in the Greater Edmonton Area (GEA) real estate market mostly kept pace with June 2025, selling 2,860 units in July, a month-over-month decrease of 0.5%, but new listings outpaced sales as 4,387 properties were added to the REALTORS® Association of Edmonton’s (RAE) MLS® System, an increase of 7.8%. Year-over-year comparisons painted a clearer picture of the shift in the GEA market, with residential unit sales down 2.6% and new listings up 20.0% from July 2024. With sales lagging and new listings plentiful, inventory levels also trended up, with 7,083 properties available at the end of the month, up 4.7% from June and 21.8% higher than July last year.

The average selling price across all residential property types decreased 0.4% from June to $463,078, a price 5.2% higher year-over-year. The MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) composite benchmark price in the GEA was $427,800, reflecting a 2.7% decrease from June 2025 and a 5.2% increase from July 2024.

Another month of strong listing activity has bolstered Edmonton’s inventory levels, to the point where motivated sellers might be willing to lower their price to close the deal, and buyers’ options remain plentiful. I won’t speculate on whether the busy season is over just yet, as this month’s sellers often become next month’s buyers, and we’ll be watching to see if sales tick up again during the back-to-school months.” Darlene Reid, 2025 Board Chair, REALTORS® Association of Edmonton
