As we wrap up 2025, I wanted to take a moment to look back on the year and say a genuine thank you. Working in Moose Jaw real estate is something I don’t take lightly, and this year was a strong reminder of why I enjoy doing this work right here in our community.
This isn’t meant to be a polished highlight reel. It’s simply a look at what actually happened this year in real transactions, real neighbourhoods, and real conversations around kitchen tables.
One sale this year really stood out and perfectly summed up what the right strategy can do. The home was listed at $409,000, and instead of rushing it to market, we focused on preparation. A modern marketing plan combined with a pre-home inspection removed uncertainty for buyers and created confidence before offers even came in.
The result was a strong response and a competitive offer situation that drove the final sale price to $465,000. That put an extra $56,000 in my sellers’ pocket. Just as important as the price was the structure of the deal. With no inspection conditions, there was no opportunity for renegotiation later. My sellers knew exactly where they stood from day one. That outcome wasn’t luck. It was the result of having the right plan in place before the listing ever went live.
That sale reflected a broader trend I saw throughout 2025. Listings that were priced properly and marketed the right way sold quickly, and many of them received multiple offers. Multiple offers often meant sellers were achieving list price or better. At the same time, buyers were navigating limited inventory. Finding the right home often took patience, preparation, and the ability to act quickly when the right property finally popped up.
Moose Jaw isn’t as competitive as Saskatoon or Regina, but it’s also not a market where you can wing it. Strategy mattered this year on both sides of the transaction.
While I worked across the entire city, Palliser clearly stood out as one of the strongest neighbourhoods in Moose Jaw in 2025. Demand remained consistent, inventory stayed tight, and prices continued to trend upward. When you look at the year as a whole instead of month-to-month noise, it’s clear that certain areas continued to reward buyers and sellers who were prepared.
Looking at Moose Jaw real estate overall, the city finished 2025 in a healthy position. Benchmark prices moved higher year over year, inventory remained well below long-term averages, and well-prepared homes continued to outperform the broader market. When you focus on yearly numbers instead of short-term fluctuations, Moose Jaw held steady and continued to move forward.
For buyers, this year reinforced how important it is to stay engaged even when inventory feels limited. If you’re starting to think about buying, keeping an eye on homes for sale in Moose Jaw can help you understand what’s coming up and how quickly the right homes are moving.

More than anything, I’m grateful for the trust my clients placed in me this year. Being chosen to help someone through one of the biggest transactions of their life is not something I ever take for granted. Whether it was buying a first home, selling a place full of memories, or simply starting the conversation early to build a plan, that trust is what makes this job meaningful.
Heading into 2026, I’m excited about helping more buyers find the right home without feeling rushed or unprepared, and helping sellers maximize their dollars by using modern marketing strategies that actually work in Moose Jaw. This market continues to reward people who plan ahead.
If you’re even thinking about buying or selling in the future, the best first step is a conversation. Buyers benefit from having everything lined up early so they don’t miss out when the right home finally appears. Sellers benefit from preparation so they don’t leave money on the table when it’s time to list.
