Resale activity in Mid-Q3 nudged up less than 1% month-over-month but is still about 11% lower than last year\u2014showing a slowdown, but not a full reversal. Over the last six months, we\u2019ve felt softer conditions, with uncertainty from trade issues and more folks feeling the pinch on affordability.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I\u2019ve noticed working with Edmonton families is how limited equity growth is making mortgage renewals tougher\u2014especially with average payments rising around 6% during this reset cycle. If you locked in a 5-year fixed mortgage back in 2020 or 2021, you might be facing a payment jump of 15\u201320%. That makes open, honest budgeting conversations with your lender even more important right now.<\/p>\n<p>The good news: economists are calling for stability through 2026 into 2027. So, while Q3 felt like a detour, it\u2019s not a sign that the market\u2019s taking a sharp turn. After 20+ years in local real estate, I\u2019ve seen Edmonton ride out its share of bumps\u2014sometimes, a pause is just that. If you\u2019re feeling uncertain about your next step, know you\u2019re not alone\u2014and there are always solutions on the table.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seeing Edmonton\u2019s real estate numbers this past quarter, I know a lot of you are wondering what\u2019s really happening on the ground.
