Surrey Real Estate
Surrey is BC's second-largest city and Metro Vancouver's fastest-growing — a genuine mix of established family neighbourhoods, new-build townhome communities, and a downtown core (Surrey City Centre) developing in real time.

One city, several distinct areas
South Surrey/White Rock trades on larger lots, ocean proximity and higher price points; Fleetwood and Clayton have grown fast with newer townhome and single-family construction; Surrey City Centre is where the density and SkyTrain-adjacent condo development is concentrated. Knowing which "Surrey" you're shopping in matters as much as it does in Vancouver.
New-construction inventory is more common here than in older Vancouver neighbourhoods, which brings GST considerations on new builds (with a rebate on qualifying purchases) that resale buyers don't face — worth factoring into your total cost comparison between new and resale.
Common questions
Buying in Surrey
If yours isn't here, ask us directly — we'd rather answer it now.
Is Surrey a good option for first-time buyers?
Often, yes — Surrey generally offers more space and newer construction per dollar than Vancouver proper, particularly in townhome and newer single-family inventory. See our [First-Time Buyer Homes](/collections/first-time-buyers) collection for current options under $700K.
What's the commute like from Surrey into Vancouver?
It depends heavily on the specific area and whether you're near SkyTrain — Surrey City Centre and areas along the Expo Line have strong transit access, while South Surrey relies more on highway commuting. We'll factor your commute into the search.
Should I buy new construction or resale in Surrey?
New construction carries GST (with a potential rebate) but comes with warranty coverage and modern systems; resale avoids GST but may need more near-term maintenance. We'll run the real cost comparison for a specific property you're considering.
