Burquitlam Market Watch Update - MARCH 2026- (Whats Selling and Whats Available?)

Burquitlam (Coquitlam West) – March 2026 Market Watch
The Burquitlam condo market is in a broadly balanced phase, leaning slightly in favour of buyers as inventory has climbed compared to last year. Two things are happening at once: buyers have more choice, and sellers are starting to feel more pressure on pricing and presentation.



Key stats – March 2026 - Burquitlam
  • Benchmark pricing: Typical condos in Coquitlam West (including Burquitlam) are trading in the high‑$600K range, reflecting an annual softening of roughly 6–7%.
  • Sales‑to‑active ratio: Recent ratios in the mid‑teens suggest a balanced but tilting‑to‑buyer environment (under 12% is usually considered buyer’s, above 20% seller’s).
  • Days on market: Well‑positioned condos are selling in roughly 30–38 days, with weaker listings sitting longer.
  • Inventory: Condo inventory in Coquitlam is up year‑over‑year, with hundreds of active listings and roughly high single‑digit growth in available units.

What’s selling in Burquitlam right now
Recent activity in Coquitlam West/Burquitlam shows a mix of older resale stock and newer high‑rise completions trading hands. Recent sales include:
  • High‑floor view homes at 567 Clarke + Como (567 Clarke Road)
  • Concrete condos at Nelson on Foster (516 Foster Ave) and Foster (525 Foster Ave)
  • Newer product at SOCO (Alderson Ave) and similar transit‑oriented towers
Top‑tier buildings closest to the SkyTrain — such as Highpoint and Smith & Farrow — are achieving premium price‑per‑square‑foot values, while more dated or compromised stock is discounting more aggressively.

What’s available – Burquitlam resale and presale

Buyers currently have a wide spectrum of choice, from move‑in ready resales to future‑dated presales:
  • Established towers like 567 Clarke, Brookmere (Austin Ave), and Allison (Edgar Ave) with multiple active listings.
  • Newer inventory in the SOCO towers and other West Coquitlam high‑rises near Burquitlam Station.
  • Presale opportunities with 2025–2027 occupancies, including large master‑planned sites such as Burquitlam Park District, Arcadia Burquitlam, and similar projects offering a mix of 1‑bed, 2‑bed and 3‑bed homes.
For relocating buyers and investors, the key question in Burquitlam isn’t simply “Is it a good time to buy?” but “Which building, corridor segment and time horizon make sense for my plan?”
