Q1 2025: A Snapshot of the Greater Moncton Real Estate Scene

 
The start of 2025 has welcomed a more balanced housing market in Greater Moncton, marked by a drop in home sales yet a steady rise in prices. A total of 647 homes were sold in the first quarter with an average home price of $378,000, a slight increase from the year-end of 2024.
 

A Shift Toward Balance

 
The significant change this year is a shift towards a balanced market. With an average of 4.4 months of inventory available, buyers now have more choices and time to make decisions. Homes are spending a bit longer on the market, averaging 42 days compared to the previous 32, while maintaining a healthy average sale-to-list ratio of 96.9%.
 

Buyer and Seller Insights

 
For buyers, particularly in the under $350,000 range, homes are still selling swiftly. However, in higher brackets, the days on market tends to extend. Around 75% of homes sold below asking, illustrating a market where buyers have more negotiation power than we’ve seen in recent years.
 

Spotlight on Home Types

 
Detached Homes: Leading the market, yet sales have slowed to 527 within Q1—nonetheless, prices have risen to just over $381,000. With nearly 1,000 new listings this year, buyers exploring this segment can enjoy greater variety.
 
Semi-Detached Homes: Sales numbers might be down, but prices are climbing. Averaging just over $384,000, these homes remain attractive, particularly amongst first-time buyers seeking affordable yet modern dwellings.
