In this post, we’re going to take a close look at key numbers for the Abbotsford detached home market for August 2025 – including sales, new listings, active listings, as well as benchmark, median and average prices for detached homes for sale in Abbotsford.
We're also going to see what kind of shape the detached home market in Abbotsford was in for the month – whether it was a buyer's market, a balanced market, or a seller's market.
Current market conditions are allowing buyers the opportunity to make bold offers, especially for properties that have been on the market for a while and where sellers may be more motivated. As in all transactions, timing is everything and we expect to see more buyers come off the sidelines heading into fall to take advantage of the lower price floor.
