Check the lot's current zoning with the municipality, and get a home inspection and a title search before removing subjects.
Budget for BC's property transfer tax on top of the price — it's charged on the purchase and first-time buyers and new builds may qualify for exemptions. See our BC & Alberta closing costs checklist.
Surrey is British Columbia's second-largest city, with 568,322 people at the 2021 census, south of the Fraser River on the Canada–US border. It's the largest city in Metro Vancouver by land area, and about 27% of that land is in the Agricultural Land Reserve, so large farm areas sit alongside its urban centres.
The city is organized around town centres: Whalley and Surrey City Centre in the north, Guildford, Fleetwood, Newton, Cloverdale and South Surrey. Other popular neighbourhoods include Fraser Heights, Clayton Heights, Panorama Ridge, Morgan Creek, Grandview Heights, Ocean Park and Crescent Beach.
SkyTrain's Expo Line serves North Surrey, ending at King George station in City Centre, and the Surrey–Langley extension is under construction along the Fraser Highway. Highway 1 and the Port Mann Bridge cross the north of the city, and Highway 99 runs south to the Peace Arch border crossing. Public schools are run by the Surrey School District (SD36).
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.

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.
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.
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.

Generally not right now. Since January 1, 2023, the federal Prohibition on the Purchase of Residential Property by Non-Canadians Act has barred most non-Canadians from buying residential property, with exceptions such as permanent residents and some work-permit holders. The ban has been extended before, so confirm its current status and get legal advice on your situation.
