July 2025 Fredericton Market Update: 32% More Sales, 10% Fewer Listings

Someone once said, “Summer should get a speeding ticket,” and that doesn’t feel truer than in August. So, I hope you can slow summer down just a little this month and enjoy it before getting back into a busy routine.

When you have a moment to relax, take a peek at this month’s e-newsletter, which features your monthly update on the Fredericton area’s residential real estate market for July 2025, along with some insight into the year-to-date trends.

In July, a total of 297 homes were sold, which marks a 32.0% increase compared to the same month last year. New listings were also up slightly at 330 units, a 1.2% rise year-over-year. However, active listings declined by 10.5%, leaving just 636 homes on the market — a clear sign of tightening inventory.

The average sale price in July was $354,591, reflecting a 2.0% increase, while the median number of days on market was 24 days, up from 21 days last year.

Looking at the year-to-date figures (January through July 2025), we’ve seen 1,491 homes sold, which is a 4.6% increase over the same period last year. There were 2,111 new listings, up 1.6%, and the average sale price climbed to $371,611, representing a strong 7.9% year-over-year increase. Homes are continuing to sell quickly, with the median days on market now at 22, slightly faster than 19.5 days last year.

What does all this mean? Simply put, buyer demand remains strong while the number of homes for sale continues to tighten. This combination is pushing prices upward and keeping the market competitive. While homes are still moving relatively fast, we are seeing a slight increase in how long they remain on the market compared to last year, particularly in the month of July.

As we head into late summer and early fall, we expect the market to remain active, with continued price growth driven by limited inventory.

Wishing you an enjoyable rest of your summer. If you have any questions about the market or are considering buying or selling a home, I’d be happy to provide a personalized analysis or help you plan your next steps.

Fredericton Housing Market: June Sales Down 4.7%, Prices Up 11.1% in Seller’s Market

Happy summer! I hope it’s off to a fantastic start.

In June 2025, the Fredericton and region residential real estate market experienced a moderate decline in sales activity, with a total of 263 properties sold—representing a 4.7% decrease compared to the same month last year. Despite the dip in sales, the market saw notable price growth, as the average home price rose by 11.1% to $376,199. The number of active listings also edged up slightly by 0.8%, reaching 664 properties on the market.

On a year-to-date basis, overall sales totaled 1,190 units, down just 0.9% from the previous year. Meanwhile, the average year-to-date sale price climbed by 9.3% to $376,003, indicating continued strong demand and price appreciation in the region. The inventory of active listings also increased by 7.3% year-to-date, bringing the total to 543 listings, which suggests a slight improvement in supply conditions.

Although inventory is improving slightly, the pace of price growth and relatively limited supply point to conditions that still favor sellers.

If you’re curious about your property’s current market value or you’re planning to buy your first home, don’t hesitate to call or message me—I’d be happy to help you navigate the market.

May Prices Up 11.4%, Sales Increase 4.3%

Here’s the latest update on the Fredericton and region real estate market for May 2025. Sales activity saw a positive increase, with 290 homes sold this May—up 4.3% compared to the same month last year. The average sale price continues to rise, reaching $399,161 in May, which is an 11.4% increase year-over-year. When it comes to listings, active listings in May stood at 631, down a bit by 1.3%, compared to the same month last year, which means the number of available homes went down a little bit. Choices for buyers narrowed down as new listings decreased more noticeably by 10.8% to 388.

However, January to May sales are slightly down by 0.4%, totaling 921. The average price for the first five months is $375,519, up 8.7%, and median price was close at $370,000, up 9.1%, reflecting steady growth in property values

From January to May, active listings increased by 8.7% to 517, which indicates more availability of houses for buyers. New listings reached same number at 1,406 compared to the same period last year, suggesting lack of growth in inventory for the year so far.

While the tight house inventory poses a competitive market for buyers, this is a promising time for sellers as demand keeps prices climbing.

For buyers, it’s important to be prepared to move quickly as fewer homes are coming to market. If you’re thinking about buying or selling in Fredericton, now is a great time for us to connect!

As spring blooms, it’s the perfect time to think about fresh starts—whether it’s a new garden, a home renovation, or finding your dream property. The market is warming up just like the weather, and I’d love to help you take advantage of it.

In March 2025, the Fredericton area real estate market continued to show steady growth and a healthy pace of activity. A total of 156 homes were sold during the month, up slightly by 1.3% compared to March 2024. New listings also saw an increase, reaching 300—an improvement of 9.5% year-over-year, giving buyers a bit more choice in the market. The average sale price rose to $358,274, a 4.4% increase from the previous year, reflecting ongoing demand and strong property values.
