Real estate is a supply and demand market. House prices in Northern Alberta are as diverse as the communities they represent. Depending on the demand for housing in any particular area, you will find a wide range of prices. For example, if you're interested in living in Fort McMurray the price of a single detached home is higher than in Peace River and a home of comparable value in Swan Hills would be even less.

Rental costs reflect similar variances. For example a two bedroom apartment in Falher would cost two thirds of a similar apartment in Grande Prairie.
 

You will also find a variety of accommodation options, from apartments and duplexes, to mobile homes located in friendly neighbourhoods. If you prefer, many of the larger communities offer contemporary subdivisions designed with the young family in mind.

Playgrounds, basketball courts, and walking trails are but a few of the details incorporated into the planning of most of these subdivisions.

If you're a "space" person you will delight in the availability of hobby farms, acreages, and privacy. These little gems are available even on the outskirts of our larger communities. The country serenity is sure to be the remedy after a hard day's work.

That's Northern Alberta!
