Frequently asked questions

Answers to Common Questions

What does it cost to sell a house in Abbotsford?

Expect roughly 3 to 6 percent of the sale price in total. Commission is the largest cost, commonly quoted as 7 percent on the first $100,000 plus 2.5 to 3.5 percent on the balance plus GST, and it is negotiable and not set by law. Legal or notary fees usually run $1,000 to $2,000.

What is the realtor commission in Abbotsford, BC?

A common structure is 7 percent on the first $100,000 plus 2.5 to 3.5 percent on the balance, plus 5 percent GST. Commission is negotiable and not set by law, and following BCFSA reforms the buyer’s agent commission is negotiated separately.

How fast are homes selling in Abbotsford?

The Fraser Valley board publishes days to sell board wide, not by city. In September 2026 the board wide average was 45 days for detached homes, 46 for condos and 38 for townhomes. No specific timeline can be guaranteed.

Do I pay GST or Property Transfer Tax when I sell my Abbotsford home?

No. GST applies to newly built homes, not resale homes, and Property Transfer Tax is paid by the buyer in British Columbia.

Should I sell my Abbotsford condo now?

Abbotsford carried 318 active apartment listings against 31 sales in September 2026, with the apartment benchmark down 11.0 percent year over year and apartment sales down 24.4 percent. Buyers have plenty of choice, so realistic pricing and strong presentation matter more in this segment than any other.

How much is my house worth in Abbotsford right now?

The MLS benchmark for a typical Abbotsford home of any type was $701,900 in September 2026, with detached at $1,087,000, townhouses at $592,600 and apartments at $370,200. Your own home’s value depends on its community, type and condition. A Comparative Market Analysis is how you find out.

Do I pay tax when I sell my home in BC?

If the home was your principal residence for every year you owned it, the gain is generally tax free, though you must still report the sale. British Columbia’s Home Flipping Tax can apply if you sell within 730 days of buying, with exemptions. This is general information, not tax advice.

Is now a good time to sell in Abbotsford?

It is a buyer’s market. The Fraser Valley sales-to-active ratio was 9 percent in September 2026, below the 12 to 20 percent balanced range, and Abbotsford benchmarks were down 8.6 to 11.1 percent year over year by property type. A realistically priced, well presented home still sells. An optimistically priced one mostly sits.

  • I am a first time home buyer, and he did everything I would recommend this guy to some people they have plan to buy a house,
  • Early last year till the end of the year from selling to buying he was in my books the number one realtor. He took his own personal time to give me his best . I was happy with the selling price he got me for my property, He went out of his way to find us exactly what we wanted and even more. He's a very devoted person, all I can say is give him a try I'm sure he will give his best. Happy Client. Kathy Hartman. Thanks Shawn.
