Why Langley townhomes are the strongest market on the whole Fraser Valley board

The short answerBecause one in four sold in August. 62 townhomes sold against 266 for sale, 23.3% of the shelf, the only townhome market on the board where sellers set terms and the tightest segment of any type in any area. Supply is 4.3 months against 9.2 in North Surrey.

The Evidence
MeasureAugust 2026, as read on 5 September
Langley townhomes, August62 sold, 266 for sale, 23.3%, 4.3 months, benchmark $806,400 (−0.6% on July)
Board townhomes15.5% sold, 6.0 months
Willoughby$829,300, 523 sold in 12 months, 3.8 months, 20 days, 98.6% of ask
Walnut Grove$782,800, 2.6 months, the tightest segment in the township
Five yearsLangley townhome +8.6%, the strongest five-year townhome figure on the board

What is happening

The townhome is the family home Langley can still supply: new-build townhomes sold at 100% of list in 15 days, four-bedroom townhomes were up 34%, and the $900,000 to $1.2 million band is the only band in the township selling at ask. Detached buyers priced out at $1.5 million and condo owners moving up meet in the same product.

What it means

A townhome seller priced at the benchmark is in the strongest position on the entire board. A buyer should have financing arranged and a number in mind before the viewing, and expect to decide in days. If the post-Labour-Day listings do not refill this shelf, the townhome is the first Langley price to stop falling.
