Few places in the Fraser Valley have the charm of Fort Langley. Tree-lined streets, heritage character homes and a walkable village filled with independent shops, cafés and restaurants make it one of the most sought-after communities in Langley.

Homes here range from restored character properties to custom new builds and riverfront living near the Bedford Channel. Weekends are spent walking the Fort-to-Fort Trail along the Fraser River, exploring the Fort Langley National Historic Site or grabbing a coffee on Glover Road.

And in October, the village comes alive for the annual Cranberry Festival, a local tradition that brings the whole community together. This year, the Cranberry festival is happening tomorrow, Oct 10th.

Selling a home with a suite? Here's what buyers are looking for.

A suite that's registered with the city, with permits ready to show. A separate entrance and dedicated parking. Some private outdoor space. Good sound insulation and plenty of natural light so it feels like a home, not a basement.

More buyers are also looking for space for aging parents or adult kids, so a suite that works for family living can reach a much wider audience.

Eagle Mountain in Abbotsford is one of the Fraser Valley's most sought-after communities, and it's easy to see why. This neighbourhood sits high above the valley, offering sweeping views of Mount Baker, the surrounding mountains and the Sumas prairie farmland below.

Eagle Mountain is known for its elegant homes, strong building standards and a real sense of pride of ownership throughout the community. Whether it's a spacious family home, a custom estate or one of the remaining building lots, the housing options here appeal to a wide range of buyers looking for something special.
With multiple schools nearby, along with parks, wooded trails and easy access to outdoor recreation, it offers something for everyone. Despite its peaceful, tucked-away feel, Eagle Mountain is just minutes from Highway 1, downtown Abbotsford's shopping and dining, and even the US border.

If you love the idea of quiet mountain living without giving up convenience, Eagle Mountain might just be the perfect fit.

Fall Market Q&A Fraser Valley Edition

Q: Is it still a buyer's market this fall?
Yes. Inventory remains high across the Fraser Valley, and sales have been running below typical seasonal levels, which keeps the advantage with buyers.

Q: Are home prices still dropping?
Prices have continued to soften through the summer, with the benchmark price now sitting well below where it was a year ago. That said, the pace of decline has been more gradual compared to previous months.

Q: Is fall a good time to sell?
It can be, if priced right. Buyers aren't feeling rushed, so homes that are realistically priced and well presented are still finding success, just without the bidding wars of years past.

Back in spring, things looked like they were turning a corner. April sales jumped 11% from March, and prices even nudged up for the first time in almost a year.

Fast forward to now, and that momentum has cooled. Sales are running below typical levels, prices have softened further, and inventory is still sitting high.

What does that mean heading into fall? Buyers are still very much in the driver's seat. More choice, softer prices, way less pressure to rush. Sellers who price realistically and present their home well are still finding success, just with a little more patience required.

Bottom line, fall 2026 feels like spring's buyer-friendly conditions, minus the urgency.

11 - 21661 88th Avenue | $719,000

This one checks a lot of boxes. 3 bed, 2.5 bath, 1,456 sq ft townhome in the Monterra complex, with real updates that matter: a 2019 kitchen reno with new cabinets, appliances, granite counters and an island, engineered hardwood on the main, and a gas fireplace to cozy up the living room.

The dining area opens right onto a patio and fenced yard, perfect for summer nights. Double tandem garage now comes with an EV charger. Roof and exterior repainted in 2025, fence redone in 2022, so the big-ticket items are already handled.

Come see this gem for yourself at our open house this weekend. Sat & Sun 2pm-4pm.

For buyers looking for more space, privacy and a slower pace of living, buying acreage and/or a hobby farm may be appealing. Communities like Langley, Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Mission have rural areas that offer larger land parcels, established outbuildings and agricultural zoning that can impede additional development.

Before deciding to move to the valley and start a hobby farm, there are a few things buyers need to consider.

With the Bank of Canada rate announcement holding rates steady yet again, it’s a good time to check in on the real estate market heading into fall.

For the past couple of years, buyers have been stuck in wait-and-see mode, nervous about rates jumping around. A steady rate changes that. It means people can make plans without feeling like the ground might shift under them next month.

Around Langley, Surrey, Abbotsford and the rest of the Fraser Valley, that steadiness is already showing up. Well-priced homes are selling at a normal pace instead of sitting untouched or getting swept up in a bidding frenzy. Buyers have breathing room to actually think things through. Sellers know what to expect instead of guessing.

If you've been holding off, waiting for some kind of sign, this might be it. A calmer rate environment usually means a calmer, more sustainable market, and that's good news no matter which side of the transaction you're on.

Curious what this means for your specific neighbourhood or situation? Reach out and let's chat about it.
