Maple Ridge Real Estate Market in 2026: What's Happening Right Now

If you're buying or selling a home in Maple Ridge, BC, you need to understand what the local market is doing right now. As a Maple Ridge-based REALTOR® with Royal LePage Wolstencroft, I've been watching the Fraser Valley real estate market closely — and 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for buyers and sellers alike.

Current Market Conditions in Maple Ridge BC

The Maple Ridge real estate market has seen sustained demand, particularly in family-friendly neighbourhoods like Silver Valley, Albion, and Cottonwood. Single-family homes remain the most sought-after property type, though townhomes and condos in Maple Ridge are gaining traction with first-time buyers looking for more accessible entry points into the market.

Key trends I'm seeing on the ground in Maple Ridge right now:

• Inventory is still tight: Listings in Maple Ridge are moving quickly. Well-priced homes are attracting multiple offers within days.
• Interest rate stabilization: With rates leveling off, buyer confidence has returned. Many buyers who sat on the sidelines in 2024-2025 are now ready to act.
• Fraser Valley vs. Metro Vancouver pricing: Maple Ridge continues to offer significantly more value per square foot compared to Burnaby, Coquitlam, and Surrey — which is drawing buyers east.
• New construction in Albion and Silver Valley: Several new developments are adding supply, but demand is keeping pace.

What This Means for Home Sellers in Maple Ridge

If you're thinking of selling your Maple Ridge home in 2026, the conditions are favourable — but pricing strategy matters more than ever. Overpriced listings sit and go stale. Homes that are priced correctly and presented well are selling competitively.

As your local Maple Ridge real estate agent, I offer a free, no-obligation home evaluation to help you understand exactly what your property is worth in today's market. I combine MLS data, neighbourhood-specific sales history, and my hands-on knowledge of Maple Ridge homes (including construction quality, as a Red Seal tradesperson) to give you the most accurate picture possible.

What This Means for Home Buyers in Maple Ridge

For buyers, Maple Ridge offers one of the best value propositions in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. You can find detached homes, larger lots, and excellent schools — neighbourhoods like Walnut Grove in Langley and Silver Valley in Maple Ridge are popular with families for good reason.

My advice to buyers right now: get pre-approved, know your budget, and work with a local REALTOR® who knows these neighbourhoods intimately. I've helped dozens of buyers find their perfect home in Maple Ridge and Langley, and I'd love to help you too.
