New ground-oriented home prices in Surrey

The short answer

175 newly built townhouses, half duplexes, and row houses are active in Surrey. The median lists at $1,049,700 for 1,986 sq ft at $551 per square foot. That is 32% below the regional median per square foot, on a home 23% above the regional median size.

How prices work in Surrey

The stock is dominated by townhouse complexes rather than the one-off infill you see in Vancouver. That is a direct consequence of how land works here: larger parcels, wider streets, and rezonings that allowed whole developments rather than lot-by-lot replacement.

Grandview Heights carries the most inventory by a wide margin, followed by Sullivan Station, Cloverdale, and Fleetwood. These are not interchangeable. Grandview Heights and Pacific Douglas sit in South Surrey and price well above Bolivar Heights or Cedar Hills in the north, and the homes in the north are often larger.

Four bedroom homes are far more available here than anywhere closer in. If you have a fixed budget and need a fourth bedroom, Surrey is where the data says to look first.

Strata fees run noticeably below the regional median. Complexes here are newer and less amenity-heavy than the ones closer to the core, which keeps the monthly cost down but also means a thinner contingency reserve to read carefully.

Price per square foot by neighbourhood

Most expensive first. Only neighbourhoods with four or more active listings appear, because below that a single home moves the figure enough to mislead.

A dash means fewer than four active listings, which is too few to publish a figure for. Rows with four to seven listings show a range instead of a median.

What a table cannot tell you

  • → Most listings are strata townhouses in a complex, so there is a monthly fee and shared grounds.
  • → North Surrey and South Surrey behave as separate markets on price. Check which one an address is in before comparing.
  • → The SkyTrain extension along Fraser Highway will change transit access unevenly across the city, so check the specific address rather than assuming.
  • → Two parking spaces are common here in a way they are not in Vancouver.

Common questions

What does a newly built townhouse cost in Surrey?

The median list price across 175 active newly built ground-oriented listings in Surrey is $1,049,700, at $551 per square foot for a median 1,986 sq ft. The figure covers townhouses, half duplexes, and row houses built in the last two years.

Is Surrey cheaper than Vancouver for a new townhouse?

Substantially, on both total price and price per square foot, and the Surrey home is usually larger as well. The trade is travel time. Compare the actual commute from the address at the hour you would make it before treating the saving as free.

Which part of Surrey has the most new ground-oriented homes?

Grandview Heights in South Surrey carries the largest count, with Sullivan Station, Cloverdale, and Fleetwood Tynehead next. North Surrey neighbourhoods such as Bolivar Heights and Cedar Hills carry fewer listings but noticeably larger homes.

Are Surrey strata fees lower?

The measured median sits below the regional figure. A lower fee is not automatically better news, though. Read the depreciation report and the contingency reserve balance, because a fee set low today can turn into a special levy later.

Is a four bedroom home easier to find in Surrey?

Yes. Four bedroom homes are far more available in Surrey than in cities closer to the core. If a fourth bedroom is a fixed requirement on a fixed budget, Surrey is where the current listing data says to look first, ahead of Vancouver, Burnaby, or Richmond.

Is North Surrey or South Surrey the better buy?

They price as separate markets, not as one city. Grandview Heights and Pacific Douglas sit in South Surrey and price above Bolivar Heights and Cedar Hills in the north, while the northern homes tend to run larger. Confirm which side of Surrey a listing is in before comparing it to another.

Which Surrey neighbourhood is cheapest per square foot?

Bolivar Heights, at $414 per square foot across 14 active listings. The most expensive is East Newton at $621.
