Saskatoon home sales continue to grow as the national market downshifts in February of 2025: SRA

Saskatoon home sales continue to grow as the national market downshifts in February of 2025: SRA

Even as tariff concerns saw home sales take a downturn nationally, the Saskatoon real estate market continued to cook through February, as demand grew and inventory fell to a six-year low.

Local real estate agents reported 323 Saskatoon homes sold in February, up 70 units from last month, and higher than February of 2024 by 14 units. That beats the ten-year average number of sales for the month by 25 percent.

Following a “surge” in new listing activity in January, activity in this category softened.

Just 381 Saskatoon homes were offered for sale on the MLS® system across the month, down 70 units from January and down by 53 compared to the same month last year.

As the period closed, the total inventory of MLS® listings was at 581 (156 of which were subject to a conditional sale). This is its lowest point for February in six years.

In terms of total months of supply, we did see a decline from 2.5 to just 1.8.

Again, supply levels of less than four months signal a seller’s market. A supply of four to six months is considered balanced. A supply larger than six months would be a buyer’s market.

The average sale price of a Saskatoon home grew again as it rose more than $20,000 from last month to reach $431,322. This is the highest average sale price for any February, ever. It’s higher than it was a year ago by $26,000.

The benchmark price of a single-family home as recorded on the MLS® Home Price Index stayed flat monthly at $463,800. That’s up $100 from last month, but higher annually by seven percent.

Meanwhile, the benchmark price of a townhome bounced back from a January dip to gain a bit more than 20K reaching $340,000. That’s higher than it was at the close of the same month last year by seven percent.

The benchmark price of a Saskatoon apartment took a step higher to hit $248,300 for a monthly increase of six thousand dollars and an annual gain of ten percent.
