Saskatchewan Housing Market: Provincial Home Prices and City Reports | August 2026

The Saskatchewan REALTORS Association (SRA) reports the whole province in one monthly release: a provincial MLS® HPI benchmark, a table of sales and supply for each SRA region, and benchmarks for the larger communities. This page covers the August 2026 release, published in September 2026. The two big cities have fuller reports of their own on the Regina and Saskatoon pages, and the Canadian housing market overview sets Saskatchewan beside the other provinces.

Saskatchewan home prices, August 2026

The provincial benchmark was $381,600, up 3.2% from a year earlier, and the average of all residential sales was $365,276. Prices fall away quickly outside the two cities: Saskatoon’s benchmark was $444,700 and Regina’s $348,900, while the smaller centres in the SRA’s table below all sit under the provincial figure.

SRA benchmark price comparison, August 2026.

A typical home in Moose Jaw cost 67% of a typical Saskatoon home, and one in North Battleford 52%.

Sales and supply by region

Across the province, 1,510 homes sold (-3% on the year) against 2,277 new listings (4% on the year), a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 66.3%, above CREA’s balanced range of 45% to 65%. The 4,920 homes on the market at month end equalled 3.26 months of sales, below CREA’s 3.6-month seller’s-market threshold. Netting out conditional sales, the SRA counted 3,933 homes truly available going into September, and it put overall inventory more than 42% below its ten-year average for the month.

SRA regional table, August 2026; sales / new listings computed here, months of supply as the SRA publishes it. The Northern Region, with a single sale, is left out.

The two city regions are where supply is shortest: Saskatoon-Biggar had 2.51 months and Regina-Moose Mountain 2.85, while the Prince Albert, Swift Current-Moose Jaw and Yorkton-Melville regions each had more than four. The SRA’s chief executive described the month as a first, modest step toward more choice for buyers, with the gap built up over several years far from closed.

Buying a home in Saskatchewan

Saskatchewan has no land transfer tax. The land registry charges 0.4% of the value to transfer any title worth more than $6,300, which is $1,526 on a home at the provincial benchmark, and a mortgage registration fee that steps up with the loan, from $200 for a mortgage under $250,000 to $275 up to $500,000 and $525 above that. The Saskatchewan fee page has the schedule in full.

Property tax has a provincial part everywhere in Saskatchewan. Homes are taxed on 80% of their assessed value, and the province’s 2026 education mill rate for residential property is 4.27, so a home assessed at the provincial benchmark owes about $1,304 a year in education tax before the municipality adds its own levy. The city pages work out the full bill for Saskatoon and Regina.

At the provincial benchmark, the minimum down payment is $19,080, the insurance premium $14,501, and the household income needed to qualify about $89,000. Saskatchewan’s median household income in the 2021 Census was $82,000 (2020 incomes), so that requirement is 8% above the median. Provincial and federal programs for new buyers are on the Saskatchewan first-time home buyer page, and the Saskatchewan mortgage affordability calculator runs the numbers for a given income.
