The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recently published the MLS® statistics for the Mission real estate market, among others, for January 2026.
In this post, we’re going to take a close look at key numbers for the Mission detached home market for January 2026 – including sales, new listings, active listings, as well as benchmark, median and average prices for detached homes for sale in Mission.
We're also going to see what kind of shape the detached home market in Mission was in for the month – whether it was a buyer's market, a balanced market, or a seller's market.
January opened the year with negligible momentum. Prices continued to weaken while at the same time selection remains high. Under normal market dynamics, these would be considered highly favourable conditions for buyers, however the uncertainty of the past year or so continues to loom large, subduing buyer confidence and muting overall market activity.
