The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recently published the MLS® statistics for the White Rock / South Surrey real estate market, among others, for March 2025.
In this post, we’re going to take a close look at key numbers for the White Rock / South Surrey detached home market for March 2025 – including sales, new listings, active listings, as well as benchmark, median and average prices for detached homes for sale in White Rock / South Surrey.
We're also going to see what kind of shape the detached home market in White Rock / South Surrey was in for the month – whether it was a buyer's market, a balanced market, or a seller's market.
If not for the economic uncertainty driven largely by U.S. tariffs, we'd likely be seeing a typical strong spring market in the Fraser Valley. Instead, we're seeing a disconnect as sellers remain hesitant to lower their prices beyond a certain threshold, while buyers, facing tighter financing conditions, are either unable or unwilling to meet it. The resulting inertia is keeping sales low.
