Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help put short-term market movements into context.

Executive Snapshot

• 93 residential sales, exactly matching the same week last year

• 189 new listings, compared to 164 last year

• 941 active listings, compared to 904

• Average sale price: $454,447, compared to $417,895 in 2025

This week's numbers point to a Saskatoon market offering buyers more selection without a significant change in sales activity. Sales matched last year's level exactly, while both new listings and overall inventory moved higher.

That combination continues to suggest a more balanced environment than we saw during the tighter periods earlier this year, but buyer activity remains steady.

Key takeaway: Buyers have more homes to choose from than they did at this time last year, but sales are keeping pace—suggesting that additional supply is creating more balance rather than signalling a significant slowdown in demand.

Sales Activity

A total of 93 residential properties sold during the week, exactly matching the 93 sales recorded during the same period in 2025.

After some week-to-week swings recently, an identical year-over-year sales result gives us a useful reminder not to place too much emphasis on any single week's movement.

Year-to-date, our weekly tracking now shows 3,655 sales in 2026 compared to 3,817 at this point last year, a difference of about 4%. So while this week's activity matched last year, overall sales for the year continue to run modestly behind 2025.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity was considerably stronger this week, with 189 properties coming to market compared to 164 during the same week last year—an increase of approximately 15%.

Active inventory also moved above last year's level, reaching 941 listings compared to 904.

For buyers, that's an encouraging development. More fresh listings combined with a larger overall pool of available properties can mean more choice and potentially a little more time to make decisions.

For sellers, however, increased inventory means more competition. As selection improves, accurate pricing, presentation and positioning become increasingly important.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price was $454,447, compared to $417,895 during the same week last year.

That's an increase of approximately 9%, but weekly average prices can move significantly depending on the mix of properties that happened to sell. A greater share of higher-priced homes in any given week can pull the average upward without indicating an equivalent increase in individual home values.

For broader perspective, Saskatoon's residential benchmark price was $444,700 in August, approximately 3% higher than August 2025.

That broader measure continues to suggest year-over-year price growth, but at a much more moderate pace than this week's average-price comparison alone would imply.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Inventory is now above last year's level and new listings remain healthy, creating more choice as we move further into the fall market. Competition hasn't disappeared, but buyers may find they have more options than they did earlier in the year.

• For sellers: Buyers are still active—sales matched last year's pace exactly—but they're shopping in a market with more inventory. Pricing correctly from the beginning and presenting a property well are increasingly important.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory continues to build through the second half of September, and whether sales remain steady as buyers gain more selection.

Closing Summary

This week's numbers continue to point toward a Saskatoon market that is becoming more balanced.

Sales matched last year's level exactly, while new listings increased and active inventory moved above 2025 levels. That means buyers have more selection without an obvious deterioration in demand.

The next few weeks should help clarify how far that shift toward balance goes. If inventory continues to rise while sales remain steady, buyers could gain additional breathing room this fall. If sales strengthen alongside the additional supply, market conditions may remain competitive even with more homes available.

Autumn in Saskatoon never seems to last quite long enough. One minute, we are enjoying warm afternoons and colourful leaves; the next, we are searching for the snow shovel. Taking care of a few important jobs now can help protect your home, prevent expensive winter surprises and make spring cleanup much easier.

Here are some things to add to your autumn home and yard checklist.

Outside the house

Clean the gutters and downspouts

Leaves and debris can prevent water from draining properly. Clean your gutters and make sure downspouts direct water away from the foundation. This can reduce the risk of ice buildup, leaks and drainage problems.

Check the roof

Look for missing, curled or damaged shingles, loose flashing and signs of wear around vents or chimneys. If you are not comfortable inspecting the roof yourself, consider having a professional take a look before snow arrives.

Inspect the exterior

Walk around your home and check the siding, foundation, windows and doors for cracks or gaps. Sealing small openings can help keep cold air, moisture and unwanted pests outside.

Drain outdoor water lines

Disconnect and drain garden hoses, shut off exterior water lines and empty outdoor faucets. If you have an underground sprinkler system, arrange to have it blown out before the first hard freeze.

Prepare outdoor equipment

Clean and store lawn furniture, garden tools, planters and seasonal decorations. Drain the fuel from equipment that will not be used over the winter or follow the manufacturer’s storage recommendations.

Inside the house

Have the furnace checked

A furnace inspection can help identify problems before the heating season is fully underway. Replace or clean the furnace filter and keep additional filters on hand for the winter.

Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms

Test every alarm in the house and replace batteries if needed. Check the expiry dates as well, since the alarms themselves need to be replaced periodically.

Stop drafts

Check the weatherstripping around exterior doors and windows. Caulking gaps and replacing worn weatherstripping can make your home more comfortable and may help reduce heating costs.

Reverse ceiling fans

If your ceiling fan has a reverse setting, switch it to rotate clockwise at a low speed. This helps move warm air that has risen toward the ceiling back into the room.

Check the fireplace and chimney

Before using a wood-burning fireplace, have the chimney inspected and cleaned if necessary. Gas fireplaces should also be checked and serviced according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

In the yard

Take care of the lawn

Continue mowing until the grass stops growing. A final cut, along with fall fertilizer if appropriate for your lawn, can help prepare it for winter.

Deal with fallen leaves

Rake or mulch heavy layers of leaves so they do not smother the grass. Leaves can also be added to a compost pile or used as protective mulch in garden beds.

Prepare trees and shrubs

Remove broken or damaged branches and water trees and shrubs well before the ground freezes, especially newer plantings. Avoid major pruning unless the particular plant benefits from fall pruning.

Clean up garden beds

Remove diseased plant material and weeds, but consider leaving some healthy stems and seed heads for winter interest and wildlife. Protect tender plants as needed and plant spring-flowering bulbs before the ground freezes.

Get ready for snow

Check that your snow shovel, ice melt and snowblower are easy to access and ready to use. It is much nicer to discover a problem on a mild autumn afternoon than during the first major snowfall.

A little preparation goes a long way

You do not need to complete everything in one weekend. Start with the jobs that protect your home from freezing temperatures and water damage, then work through the rest while the weather cooperates.

A well-maintained property is easier to enjoy, less likely to develop costly problems and more appealing when it comes time to sell. If you are thinking about making a move, autumn can also be a good time to walk through your home with a real estate professional and identify any projects worth completing before listing.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help put short-term market movements into context.

Executive Snapshot

• 85 residential sales, compared to 101 one year ago

• 160 new listings, compared to 127 last year

• 822 active listings, compared to 887

• Average sale price: $412,832, compared to $436,205 in 2025

Sales activity eased during the first full week of September while considerably more new listings came to market. Despite that influx of new supply, active inventory remained below the same period last year.

Because this week's data was collected later than usual, some figures may be subject to minor reporting differences. Rather than placing too much weight on a single week, the broader supply picture remains the more useful indicator.

Key takeaway: More homes came to market and sales slowed this week, but Saskatoon's overall inventory remains below last year's level. The fall market is bringing buyers more fresh options without yet creating a significant buildup in available supply.

Sales Activity

A total of 85 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 101 during the same period in 2025.

That's a year-over-year decline of approximately 16% and a change from the stronger sales activity we saw at the end of August.

One week doesn't establish a trend, however, and this week's figures warrant a little extra caution because of the later data collection. We'll be watching the next several weeks to see whether sales activity rebounds or whether this marks the beginning of the typical fall moderation.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity increased significantly, with 160 homes coming to market compared to 127 during the same week last year.

Interestingly, that increase hasn't translated into higher overall inventory. Active listings stood at 822, compared to 887 one year ago.

That means buyers are seeing a healthy influx of fresh properties, but the total pool of homes available remains about 7% smaller than it was at this point last year.

The broader August numbers provide useful context here. The Saskatchewan REALTORS® Association reported that new listings increased more than 12% year over year in August, but Saskatoon remained Saskatchewan's most supply-constrained real estate market.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price was $412,832, compared to $436,205 during the same week last year.

That's a noticeable weekly difference, but it shouldn't be interpreted as evidence that Saskatoon home values have fallen by the same amount. Weekly averages are particularly sensitive to the mix and price ranges of homes sold.

For better perspective, Saskatoon's residential benchmark price was $444,700 in August, approximately 3% higher than August 2025.

That broader measure helps temper what otherwise looks like a fairly dramatic change in this week's average price.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: A strong week for new listings means more fresh options are coming to market, although total inventory remains below last year's level.

• For sellers: More new listings mean increased competition for buyer attention. Accurate pricing and strong presentation continue to matter, particularly as we move into the fall market.

• What we're watching: Whether September's increase in new listings begins to build overall inventory—or whether those homes continue to be absorbed quickly enough to keep supply relatively tight.

Closing Summary

The first full week of September brought a noticeable increase in new listings alongside slower sales activity.

Normally, that combination might point toward rapidly increasing inventory. So far, however, that isn't what we're seeing. Active listings remain below last year's level, suggesting Saskatoon's overall supply picture is still relatively tight.

We'll be particularly interested in the next few weeks. If new listings continue arriving at this pace while sales remain softer, buyers could begin to gain more selection. If sales rebound, inventory may remain constrained despite the seasonal influx of new listings.

How We Can Help

If you're considering buying or selling and would like to understand how these market trends apply to your specific situation, our team is always happy to have a conversation — even if you're just looking for clarity on timing, pricing, or next steps.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help put short-term market movements into context.

Executive Snapshot

• 108 residential sales, compared to 88 one year ago

• 154 new listings, compared to 129 last year

• 924 active listings, compared to 921

• Average sale price: $475,819, compared to $430,918 in 2025

Sales activity finished August on a strong note, climbing well above the same week last year. New listings also increased substantially, yet active inventory remained almost identical year over year.

That combination suggests the additional supply entering the market is being met by healthy buyer demand. Buyers have more fresh listings to choose from, but we're not seeing those listings translate into a significant buildup in overall inventory.

Key takeaway: More homes are coming onto the market, but buyers are keeping pace. With sales and new listings both well above last year's weekly levels and overall inventory virtually unchanged, Saskatoon continues to show a healthy balance between supply and demand.

Sales Activity

A total of 108 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 88 during the same period in 2025—an increase of nearly 23%.

That's a notable improvement from last year and follows several weeks of relatively healthy late-summer sales activity.

The broader August numbers support that picture. According to the Saskatchewan REALTORS® Association, Saskatoon recorded 446 residential sales during August, just 1% below last year but 7% above the 10-year average.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity was also strong, with 154 properties coming to market compared to 129 during the same week last year—an increase of about 19%.

Despite that increase, active inventory finished the week at 924 listings, almost unchanged from the 921 recorded one year ago.

That's an important distinction. More listings don't necessarily mean inventory is accumulating if buyers are purchasing them at a similar pace.

The SRA's August report tells a similar story at the monthly level. New listings increased more than 12% year over year, which the association described as a welcome development for Saskatchewan's most supply-constrained real estate market.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price was $475,819, compared to $430,918 during the same week last year.

That's a significant difference, but—as we've said throughout the Week in Review—a single week's average can be heavily influenced by the types and price ranges of homes that happened to sell.

The broader pricing measure gives us better context. Saskatoon's residential benchmark price was $444,700 in August, up 2.8% year over year, although it eased slightly from $447,600 in July.

That tells us prices remain higher than last year, but the difference in this week's average sale price shouldn't be interpreted as market-wide appreciation.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: More homes are coming to market, creating better selection than we saw during the most supply-constrained periods earlier this year. However, healthy sales activity means desirable properties can still move quickly.

• For sellers: Buyer demand remains solid, but increased new-listing activity means sellers are competing for attention. Pricing and presentation continue to matter.

• What we're watching: Whether September's new listings continue at this pace and, importantly, whether buyers continue absorbing them quickly enough to prevent inventory from building.

Closing Summary

As we turn the calendar to September, Saskatoon's housing market is showing a healthier supply-and-demand balance without evidence of a significant slowdown in buyer activity.

This week brought substantially more sales and new listings than the same period last year, while overall inventory remained almost unchanged. The broader August numbers tell a similar story: new supply is improving, but market conditions remain relatively tight by historical standards.

That makes September particularly interesting. More inventory would give buyers additional breathing room, but if sales continue at their current pace, Saskatoon could remain competitive even as selection improves.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help place short-term market movements into proper context.

Executive Snapshot

• 114 residential sales, compared to 109 one year ago

• 146 new listings, compared to 141 last year

• 911 active listings, compared to 881

• Average sale price: $464,268, compared to $441,598 in 2025

Sales activity edged ahead of last year's pace this week, while new listings were also slightly higher. Active inventory remained above 2025 levels, continuing to provide buyers with more selection as we approach the end of summer.

What's notable is that increased inventory hasn't been accompanied by a significant drop in sales activity. Instead, the numbers continue to point toward a more balanced market, with healthy buyer demand alongside improved supply.

Key takeaway: Buyers have more choice than they did a year ago, but sales activity remains healthy. That's a good indication that the Saskatoon market is moving toward balance rather than simply slowing down.

Sales Activity

A total of 114 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 109 during the same period in 2025.

That's a modest year-over-year increase and an encouraging sign for overall market activity as summer begins winding down.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity reached 146 homes, compared to 141 during the same week last year.

Active inventory finished the week at 911 listings, up from 881 one year ago. This continues a trend we've been watching through the second half of summer, with available inventory increasingly tracking at or above last year's levels.

For buyers, that means more selection. For sellers, it means more competition from other listings—and greater importance placed on pricing and presentation.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price reached $464,268, compared to $441,598 during the same week last year.

As always, weekly average prices can fluctuate considerably depending on the mix of homes sold. This week's higher average is worth noting, but it shouldn't be interpreted on its own as a measure of overall home-price appreciation.

Looking at the longer-term trend remains much more useful than any single week's average.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Inventory remains above last year's level, providing more choice and potentially a little more time to evaluate available properties.

• For sellers: Buyer activity remains healthy, but increased selection means accurate pricing and strong presentation are becoming increasingly important.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory continues to remain above 2025 levels as the market transitions from summer into the traditional fall season.

Closing Summary

The late-summer Saskatoon market continues to look increasingly balanced.

Sales edged above last year's pace this week, new listings were slightly higher, and buyers continue to have more homes to choose from. Importantly, the increase in inventory hasn't resulted in a corresponding drop in sales activity.

As September approaches, we'll be watching to see whether these conditions carry into the fall market or whether inventory begins to tighten again.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help place short-term market movements into proper context.

Executive Snapshot

• 99 residential sales, compared to 105 one year ago

• 163 new listings, compared to 155 last year

• 934 active listings, compared to 898

• Average sale price: $467,463, compared to $478,216 in 2025

Sales activity remained relatively close to last year's pace this week, while new listings edged higher. Active inventory also moved above 2025 levels, giving buyers more selection as we move through the second half of August.

After several weeks of inventory moving back and forth around last year's levels, this week's numbers suggest supply is beginning to build. Buyer demand remains healthy, but the balance between buyers and sellers is becoming more even.

Key takeaway: Buyers are seeing more choice. Inventory is now above last year's level while sales remain relatively steady, pointing toward more balanced conditions as the fall market approaches.

Sales Activity

A total of 99 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 105 during the same period in 2025.

That's a relatively small year-over-year difference and suggests buyer activity remains healthy despite the seasonal transition toward late summer.

Year-to-date, 3,255 sales have been recorded in 2026 compared to 3,426 at this point last year.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity reached 163 homes, compared to 155 during the same week last year.

Active inventory finished the week at 934 listings, up from 898 one year ago. This is an important number to watch. Earlier this year, inventory consistently trailed 2025 levels, while recent weeks have seen supply move much closer to—and at times above—last year's levels.

If that continues, buyers could head into the fall market with more choice than they had through much of the spring.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price was $467,463, compared to $478,216 during the same week last year.

That's a relatively modest year-over-year difference, particularly for a weekly average. The mix of homes sold can move this figure considerably from one week to the next, so longer-term trends remain more useful when assessing overall price direction.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Inventory has increased, providing more selection and potentially a little more breathing room when considering available properties.

• For sellers: Buyers remain active, but increased competition between listings makes accurate pricing and strong presentation increasingly important.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory continues to build through late August and into September, which could further shift the market toward more balanced conditions.

Closing Summary

The Saskatoon market appears to be gradually transitioning from the tighter conditions we experienced earlier in the year toward a more balanced late-summer market.

Sales remain healthy, but more listings are available and inventory is now above the same period last year. The next few weeks should tell us whether this is simply a seasonal increase in supply or the beginning of a more sustained shift heading into fall.

We'll continue following the numbers each week.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help place short-term market movements into proper context.

Executive Snapshot

• 100 residential sales, compared to 124 one year ago

• 192 new listings, compared to 186 last year

• 887 active listings, compared to 898

• Average sale price: $472,307, compared to $443,573 in 2025

Sales activity slowed this week compared to the same period last year, while slightly more new listings entered the market. Despite that combination, active inventory remained just below 2025 levels, suggesting that overall supply has not yet meaningfully surpassed last year's pace.

The numbers point to a market offering buyers more fresh inventory while still maintaining relatively balanced supply conditions overall.

Key takeaway: Sales slowed this week and new listings increased, but active inventory remains slightly below last year. We'll be watching to see whether this is the beginning of a late-summer inventory build or simply a week-to-week fluctuation.

Sales Activity

A total of 100 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 124 during the same period in 2025.

That's a noticeable year-over-year decline in weekly sales activity. However, one week alone doesn't establish a broader trend, particularly during the summer months when activity can fluctuate from week to week.

Year-to-date, 3,156 sales have been recorded in 2026 compared to 3,321 at this point last year.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity reached 192 homes, slightly higher than the 186 recorded during the same week last year.

Active inventory finished the week at 887 listings, compared to 898 one year ago. That's a relatively small difference and suggests overall selection is now quite similar to where it stood at this point in 2025.

With new listings outpacing sales this week, we'll be watching closely to see whether available inventory begins to build as August progresses.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price reached $472,307, compared to $443,573 during the same week last year.

That's a notable year-over-year difference, but weekly average prices can be heavily influenced by the mix of properties sold. A larger proportion of higher-priced sales can move the weekly average considerably, so this figure is best viewed alongside longer-term pricing trends rather than in isolation.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: More new listings came to market this week, and overall inventory is now very close to last year's level, providing a healthier selection of properties to consider.

• For sellers: Buyers remain active, but with more choices available, accurate pricing and strong presentation continue to become increasingly important.

• What we're watching: Whether the combination of fewer sales and more new listings begins to push inventory higher through the second half of August.

Closing Summary

This week's numbers show some signs of a seasonal shift. Sales slowed, new listings edged higher, and inventory is now sitting very close to last year's level.

One week doesn't make a trend, so the next few reports will be particularly interesting. If new listings continue to outpace sales, we could see buyers gain additional choice heading toward the fall market. If inventory holds steady, it would suggest demand continues to absorb much of the available supply.

We'll keep following the numbers each week to see which direction the Saskatoon market takes.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help place short-term market movements into proper context.

Executive Snapshot

• 103 residential sales, up from 93 one year ago

• 151 new listings, up from 137 last year

• 848 active listings, compared to 871

• Average sale price: $419,777, compared to $454,415 in 2025

Buyer activity strengthened this week, with sales exceeding the same period last year despite an increase in new listings. At the same time, active inventory remained slightly below 2025 levels, suggesting that new supply continues to be absorbed at a healthy pace.

After several weeks of the market finding its summer balance, this week's numbers point to renewed buyer activity while overall conditions remain stable.

Key takeaway: Sales increased year over year while inventory remained slightly lower than last year, indicating buyers continue to absorb new listings without allowing supply to build significantly.

Sales Activity

Sales activity totaled 103 residential transactions, compared to 93 during the same week in 2025. This represents a solid year-over-year increase and reflects continued buyer confidence as the summer market progresses.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity increased to 151 homes, compared to 137 during the same week last year. Active inventory finished the week at 848 listings, down slightly from 871 in 2025.

Although more homes came to market this week, inventory remained below last year's level, suggesting buyer demand continues to keep pace with the additional supply.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price was $419,777, compared to $454,415 during the same week last year. Weekly average prices naturally fluctuate depending on the mix of homes sold and should be viewed as a short-term indicator rather than a broader pricing trend.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Fresh inventory continues to come to market, providing opportunities while overall selection remains healthy.

• For sellers: Buyer activity remains strong, and well-priced homes continue to attract attention despite increased listing activity.

• What we're watching: Whether stronger sales continue through August and how they impact inventory levels heading toward the fall market.

Closing Summary

As we move further into August, Saskatoon's housing market continues to demonstrate resilience. Buyer demand remains healthy, new listings are entering the market at a steady pace, and inventory levels remain relatively stable. We'll continue following these weekly trends as the market transitions toward the fall season.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a look at the latest local housing market activity to help put the numbers into perspective and identify the trends shaping Saskatoon's real estate market.

Executive Snapshot

• 112 residential sales, compared to 119 one year ago

• 147 new listings, compared to 164 last year

• 890 active listings, compared to 884

• Average sale price: $442,074, compared to $468,120 in 2025

Market activity remained relatively steady through the final full week of July. Sales and new listings were both slightly lower than the same week last year, while active inventory remained just above 2025 levels.

Rather than continuing to expand, inventory appears to be stabilizing. Buyers continue to benefit from a healthy selection of homes without a significant increase in overall supply.

Key takeaway: Inventory remains slightly above last year's level, but the gap has narrowed. Combined with fewer new listings this week, the market appears to be settling into a stable late-summer pattern.

Sales Activity

A total of 112 residential properties sold during the week, compared to 119 during the same period last year. While sales were modestly lower year over year, activity continues to reflect a healthy level of buyer demand for this time of year.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity eased slightly, with 147 homes coming to market compared to 164 during the same week in 2025.

Active inventory finished the week at 890 listings, only marginally above last year's 884. After two weeks of higher inventory, this week's numbers suggest the market may be finding its seasonal balance rather than continuing to build supply.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price for the week was $442,074, compared to $468,120 during the same week last year.

Average sale prices naturally fluctuate from week to week depending on the mix of properties sold. While this week's average was lower than last year, one week's pricing shouldn't be viewed as a broader market trend on its own.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Inventory remains healthy, providing good selection while competitive opportunities continue for desirable homes.

• For sellers: Buyers still have options, making accurate pricing and strong presentation important for attracting attention quickly.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory holds near current levels through August or begins tightening as summer winds down.

Closing Summary

As July comes to a close, Saskatoon's housing market continues to demonstrate stability. Inventory has remained modestly above last year's level for several weeks without accelerating, while sales activity has stayed remarkably consistent. We'll continue watching how these trends evolve as we head into the late summer market.

Executive Snapshot

• 128 residential sales, compared to 135 one year ago

• 160 new listings, compared to 164 last year

• 904 active listings, compared to 877

• Average sale price: $435,816, compared to $399,075 in 2025

Sales activity remained remarkably consistent with last year, while new listing activity was also nearly unchanged. Active inventory continued to sit slightly above 2025 levels, suggesting buyers are benefiting from increased choice without a significant slowdown in market activity.

The market appears to be settling into a more balanced summer pattern, with supply and demand remaining relatively well aligned.

Key takeaway: Inventory continues to track modestly above last year's level, giving buyers more options while overall market activity remains healthy and pricing stays resilient.

Sales Activity

Sales activity totaled 128 residential transactions, compared to 135 during the same week in 2025. The small year-over-year difference suggests buyer demand remains steady despite the typical seasonal slowdown experienced during the summer months.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity came in at 160 homes, compared to 164 during the same week last year. Active inventory stood at 904 listings, up slightly from 877 in 2025.

While more homes remain available than at this time last year, the increase is modest and suggests the market is gradually moving toward more balanced conditions rather than experiencing an oversupply.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price reached $435,816, compared to $399,075 during the same week last year. Weekly average prices can fluctuate depending on the mix of homes sold, but this week's figures point to continued resilience in Saskatoon's housing market.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: Inventory remains slightly higher than last year, providing more opportunities to explore available listings without dramatically changing market conditions.

• For sellers: Well-priced, well-presented homes continue to perform well, though buyers may take a little more time as they evaluate a broader selection of properties.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory stabilizes near current levels through the remainder of summer or begins to tighten again as buyer activity continues.

Closing Summary

As July continues, the Saskatoon market is showing signs of seasonal balance. We'll continue following weekly trends to see whether inventory stabilizes, grows, or begins tightening again as we move toward the late summer market.

Welcome back to the Saskatoon Real Estate Week in Review. Each week, we take a clear, data-driven look at local real estate activity to help place short-term market movements into proper context.

Executive Snapshot

• 132 residential sales, compared to 138 one year ago

• 214 new listings, up from 165 last year

• 930 active listings, compared to 884

• Average sale price: $428,382, compared to $431,800 in 2025

Sales activity remained remarkably steady compared to the same week last year, while new listing activity increased significantly. As a result, active inventory rose above 2025 levels, offering buyers more choice than we've seen through much of the spring market.

Although inventory has begun to build, buyer activity remains healthy and pricing has remained relatively stable, suggesting the Saskatoon market is transitioning toward more balanced summer conditions rather than experiencing a significant slowdown.

Key takeaway: More homes are coming to market, and active inventory has now moved above last year's level. While buyer demand remains healthy, the increase in available inventory is giving buyers more choice than we've seen through much of the spring.

Sales Activity

Sales activity totaled 132 residential transactions, compared to 138 during the same week in 2025. While slightly lower year over year, the difference is modest and reflects continued healthy buyer activity through the middle of July.

New Listings & Inventory

New listing activity increased to 214 homes, compared to 165 during the same week last year. Active inventory reached 930 listings, up from 884 in 2025.

This marks a notable shift from recent weeks, where inventory consistently tracked below last year's levels. The increase suggests sellers are bringing more homes to market, providing buyers with additional choice as the summer market progresses.

Pricing Trends

The average sale price reached $428,382, compared to $431,800 during the same week last year. Weekly average prices continue to fluctuate based on the mix of homes sold, and this week's results point to generally stable pricing conditions.

What This Means Right Now

• For buyers: The increase in inventory provides more options and may reduce some of the competitive pressure experienced earlier this year.

• For sellers: Well-priced, well-presented homes continue to attract buyers, though increased inventory means thoughtful pricing and preparation are becoming even more important.

• What we're watching: Whether inventory continues to build through the remainder of July or if buyer demand begins absorbing the additional supply.

Closing Summary

As we move deeper into the summer market, we'll continue tracking how sales activity, new listings, inventory levels, and pricing trends evolve across the Saskatoon real estate market. Seasonal changes are beginning to emerge, making weekly market insights more valuable than ever.
