1. St.Albert is booming - and will continue to do so
The St.Albert housing market is currently enjoying the pandemic boom - similar to many other communities- but that does not mean that first-time homebuyers are pushed out of the market.

Our prediction: now is a great time to get in on St.Albert real estate. According to Zolo, the average home in St.Albert is currently $435K, with homes spending an average of just 36 days on the market. Are you a first-time homebuyer?

2. If you’re looking to sell - now is the time
If you live in St.Albert and have been humming and hawing about selling your home - now may be a perfect time. Homes are going quickly due to increased demand as the market continues to flood with interested buyers. Many people who lived closer to work can now move to their dream communities (like St.Albert) as they can now work from home at least part-time. Zolo states that in the last 28 days, there were 128 new listings with approximately 109 homes sold. As we stated above. With turnaround times of just over a month - this could be the perfect time to sell your current home to upsize or to move to a different location within the Greater Edmonton Area.
