## January 2026 Detached Sales Show Stable Pricing and Slow Absorption

Selkirk recorded 10 detached home sales in January 2026 with a median sale price of $363,500. This figure matches the January 2025 comparison value exactly, indicating no year-over-year price movement in this small sample. The consistency suggests a stable baseline rather than a trend, though the limited transaction count constrains statistical confidence.

The median days on market stood at 42 days, reflecting a market where properties required roughly six weeks to sell. Combined with a sold-to-list price ratio of 97.6%, these metrics point to a balanced environment where buyers held negotiating leverage. Sellers who priced above market likely faced longer listing periods or reduced final sale prices. Sources:
