As 2025 wrapped up, the Maple Ridge real estate market showed clear signs of cooling, with sales down across all property types, inventory levels rising in some segments, and benchmark prices declining year-over-year. Based on the latest Greater Vancouver REALTORS® report (as of January 2026), this has pushed the area into a strong buyer's market, with sales-to-active ratios well below 20%: 9.2% for detached, 16.8% for condos, and 18.1% for townhomes. This gives buyers more negotiating power and choices.
