Lakeridge Home, Condo & Townhouse Listing Agent

Lakeridge is one of Saskatoon's cleanest single-product neighbourhoods on paper. Of the 1,208 dwellings the City counts inside the area, 1,202 are single-family houses (99 per cent), zero are in two-unit dwellings, and only 6 sit in multi-unit buildings (City of Saskatoon Neighbourhood Profile, 2021 Census data). In practical terms Lakeridge is a detached market, full stop, and the 2024 sales data lines up with the housing structure: 51 single-family closings and no recorded condo, townhouse, or semi-detached sales across the entire year.

I list homes across Saskatoon as a REALTOR® based in the city, and this page is written specifically for Lakeridge sellers: how a near-monoproduct detached neighbourhood built in a narrow window during the 1980s and 1990s, a very high owner-occupied share, and a family buyer pool shape a resale here, and how the marketing described below reaches the buyers who are actively shopping this pocket of west-side Saskatoon.

Selling a Condo, Townhouse, or House in Lakeridge

Lakeridge is effectively a detached-only market. 1,202 of the 1,208 dwellings recorded by the City are single-family houses (99 per cent), and only 6 units in total sit in multi-unit buildings, with zero two-unit dwellings on the ground (City of Saskatoon Neighbourhood Profile, 2021 Census data). The 2024 sales data confirms it in practice: 51 detached closings and no recorded condo, townhouse, or semi-detached sales for the year, which puts Lakeridge in the small handful of Saskatoon neighbourhoods that trade as a genuinely single-product resale market.

Lakeridge condo value: what actually sets your price

Condo product is essentially absent from the Lakeridge resale market. The City recorded no apartment condo sales inside the neighbourhood in 2024, and total multi-unit supply is only 6 dwellings out of 1,208 (City of Saskatoon). If you own one of that tiny handful of non-detached units in Lakeridge, we lean on nearby west-side complexes in Confederation Park, Fairhaven, and Parkridge rather than a neighbourhood average that does not exist in a meaningful sense, and we work off the specifics of your own building, floor, parking, and monthly fee. Current inventory is on the Lakeridge condos for sale page.

Lakeridge townhouse listing agent: how townhomes sell differently here

Townhouse product is likewise minimal. The City recorded no condo townhouse sales in Lakeridge in 2024, and the housing stock does not include a meaningful townhouse row layer to begin with (City of Saskatoon). If you own a townhouse in or immediately adjacent to Lakeridge, we work off nearby west-side comparables rather than a thin neighbourhood figure. Current listings are on the Lakeridge townhouses for sale page.

Detached houses: the whole of the Lakeridge market

Detached houses are essentially the entire Lakeridge market. The City recorded 51 single-family sales in 2024 at an average of $520,321 (City of Saskatoon). Fifty-one closings in a single year is a genuinely deep comparable sample for a mature suburban pocket, and it gives pricing a strong base to work from inside the neighbourhood without needing to reach outside the boundary. What still decides your specific number is condition, kitchen and bathroom updates, basement development, mechanical replacements, and lot position on the block. Active inventory is on the single family homes in Lakeridge page.

Because Lakeridge is effectively a detached-only market, the marketing described below is applied to your listing with detached buyers as the target audience, and the pricing work is done on your specific house rather than a neighbourhood-wide average.

How Your Listing Reaches Lakeridge Buyers

An MLS® listing is table stakes. It puts your home into the feed every REALTOR®, portal, and consumer app pulls from, and on its own it will not separate your listing from the other Lakeridge detached houses that hit the market in the same week. Everything below runs on top of that baseline for every Braaten Group listing in the neighbourhood.

Where a Lakeridge Listing Actually Gets Seen

Wide marketing only produces a result if the destination it drives buyers to has real traffic behind it. Every Century 21 Fusion listing appears on kentbraaten.com, which includes yours if you list your Lakeridge home with me, and the gap between this site and the average Canadian brokerage site is not small.

Website Stats (Monthly)

Stats are according to Benchmetric analytics, July 2026.

In plain terms, kentbraaten.com pulls roughly 23 times the monthly site sessions and 79 times the monthly page views of the average Canadian brokerage site. A Lakeridge listing surfaced through this site reaches a much larger, already-engaged pool of buyers than one carried only on a typical brokerage page ever will.

Daily Reporting on Your Lakeridge Listing

Most seller frustration during a listing has nothing to do with the number itself. It is about the silence between showings. Every listing I take on ships with a live Listing Insights Dashboard, built in Google Looker Studio and wired directly into the ad accounts, MLS® board feed, and analytics working on your file.

The dashboard above is a sample only. The figures come from a real Saskatoon listing rather than a Lakeridge property, and your own dashboard would report live numbers for your specific address and refresh daily.

Everything on it is pulled straight from source: Meta and Google ad performance, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube post reach, MLS® client-portal and agent activity, plus REALTOR.ca views, favourites, photo views, and shares. You see the same numbers I see, on the same day I see them, without needing to call in for an update or wait for a weekly summary.

Why Selling in Lakeridge Is Not Like Selling Elsewhere in Saskatoon

Lakeridge is one of very few Saskatoon neighbourhoods that trades as a genuine detached-only resale market in a given year. Zero recorded condo townhouse sales, zero apartment condo sales, and zero semi-detached sales in 2024 alongside 51 detached closings is a distinctive pattern, and it means every seller here is competing for the same pool of detached buyers rather than a segmented multi-tier audience. That simplifies the marketing brief in some ways and sharpens the pricing conversation in others.

The build era is dominant and narrow. Roughly 66 per cent of the neighbourhood was built between 1981 and 1990, and another 30 per cent through the 1990s, so a typical Lakeridge detached listing is a 30- to 40-year-old home priced against very similar-vintage comparables on nearby streets. Differentiation comes almost entirely from what has been done to the house since it was built, plus lot orientation and position, since the exterior building envelope is broadly similar across the neighbourhood.

Ownership tenure is unusually settled. About 97 per cent of Lakeridge dwellings are owner-occupied and only 3 per cent are rented, which is one of the highest ownership rates in Saskatoon. Combined with the family-heavy household composition (975 one-family households versus 160 non-family households), that produces a resale market with very few investor turnovers and a buyer pool that is overwhelmingly end-user rather than transient.

Median personal income in Lakeridge sits at $59,340 versus $44,650 citywide, well above the citywide median, which lines up with the mid-to-upper-500s detached pricing the neighbourhood is carrying. That describes a settled working family buyer pool with the capacity to compete for detached inventory in Lakeridge and the patience to wait for a well-prepared listing rather than compromise on a rough one.

Pricing a Lakeridge House Against Its Street and Its Build Year

Pricing in Lakeridge starts with your street and the year your house was built, and gets adjusted for updates, basement development, garage configuration, lot position, and mechanical age. Because the neighbourhood was built out inside a fairly narrow window during the 1980s and 1990s, most detached listings compete against a pool of same-era homes within a short walk, and the differences between them come down to how carefully each house has been maintained and updated over the past 30 to 40 years. A CMA here can lean on a genuinely deep comparable set inside the neighbourhood itself.

The most recent official pricing data for Lakeridge comes from the City of Saskatoon's Neighbourhood Profile and covers the 2024 sales year: 51 single-family homes averaged $520,321. That figure sets the detached tier for the neighbourhood, but it is not a current valuation for any specific address. There were no recorded semi-detached, condo townhouse, or apartment condo sales in 2024, so those tiers do not have neighbourhood-specific averages to work from at all, and any non-detached listing here has to lean on comparables in neighbouring west-side pockets.

Citywide context matters too. Saskatoon's overall MLS® benchmark residential price hit a record $448,400 in June 2026 on roughly 1.6 months of inventory, and the Saskatchewan REALTORS® Association has flagged the Saskatoon-Biggar region as carrying the tightest housing conditions in the province through the first half of 2026. That backdrop tends to favour prepared sellers citywide, Lakeridge included, but it does not replace a proper CMA on your specific home.

Recently Sold Listings in Lakeridge

The listings above show current asking prices in Lakeridge, not closed sale prices. Closed figures for recent Lakeridge sales, along with days on market and any price adjustments, are not published publicly. I bring that side of the comparison to your in-person evaluation so the pricing conversation is grounded in what buyers actually paid, not just what other sellers asked.

Who Is Buying in Lakeridge

The City's demographic snapshot points to a straightforward family-buyer profile in Lakeridge. One-family households (975) outnumber non-family households (160) by roughly six to one, and the 97 per cent owner-occupied share is one of the highest in Saskatoon. The typical Lakeridge buyer is a family unit either upsizing into more space or moving to a quieter west-side street for schools and yards, rather than a single professional or investor.

Median personal income in Lakeridge sits at $59,340 versus $44,650 citywide, well above the citywide median. Combined with the strong ownership tenure, that describes a working buyer pool that can qualify for the neighbourhood's detached pricing without stretching, and a seller pool that generally moves for a life reason (upsize, downsize, relocation) rather than under financial pressure. That shows up in offers: prepared listings tend to attract clean, straightforward negotiations.

Because the neighbourhood is functionally single-product on the sales side, there is really only one buyer pool worth marketing to: family-oriented detached buyers, many already in Saskatoon, some relocating from out of province. That simplifies the marketing brief and lets photography, staging, and copy focus consistently on the features that matter most to that audience: bedroom count, yard, garage, basement, and proximity to schools and services.

What Sellers Say

Awards and Recognition

Awards are not a substitute for a solid CMA on your specific home, but they do show a pattern across many closings rather than a single strong year.

Three Centurion Producer years, eleven Masters Awards, and a 2019 Top Listing Agent title at Century 21 Fusion, Saskatoon. That last one matters on a page written for sellers, because it measures listing-side production specifically rather than combined buying-and-selling volume.

Preparing a Lakeridge Home to List

Because Lakeridge is a mature, detached-heavy neighbourhood with an 80s and 90s build era and a demanding family buyer pool, preparation matters more here than in a market where price alone drives the sale. Before your listing goes live, focus on:

• Refreshing the finishes that read as original from an 80s or 90s build, since a lot of Lakeridge houses share that vintage and buyers are actively comparing which ones have been updated.
• Kitchen and main bathroom presentation, since these are the rooms Lakeridge buyers weigh most heavily against comparable homes on nearby streets.
• Basement development and finish quality, since a completed basement is one of the clearer differentiators among similar main-floor footprints in this market.
• Yard and landscaping presentation, since a well-kept lawn and defined garden beds photograph as maintained rather than tired, which matters strongly for family buyers.
• Documenting mechanical replacements (furnace, hot water tank, roof, windows) so a buyer's inspection focuses on condition rather than surprise questions about age.
• Decluttering rooms that have been lived in for a long time so buyers see the space rather than the accumulated life of the current owner.
• Gathering documentation: appliance manuals, permits for basement or garage work, and utility bills for a full calendar year so buyers can budget honestly.

The Listing Process, Step by Step

1. Initial conversation to understand your timeline, your reason for selling, and what a good outcome looks like for you.
2. Comparative market analysis built on recent closed sales on your street or in your building, not just the City averages.
3. Preparation plan, a short prioritised list of what is worth doing before photography and what is not.
4. Paperwork: listing agreement, disclosures, and timeline confirmed in writing before anything goes public.
5. Media day: photography, floor plans, drone footage, and any video once the home is ready to show its best.
6. Launch: MLS®, kentbraaten.com, signage, and paid promotion all go live together.
7. Showings and feedback with coordinated access and honest reporting on what buyers are saying.
8. Offer review: price, conditions, deposit, financing, and closing date weighed together, with a clear recommendation from me.
9. Conditions through closing: inspection, financing, and lawyer coordination managed to keys-in-hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the City's 2024 average price for Lakeridge reflect what my home is worth today?

Not on its own. The City of Saskatoon's Neighbourhood Profile is the most recent official source for Lakeridge-specific sales, covering 51 detached closings at an average of $520,321 across the 2024 calendar year. That average sets the detached tier for the neighbourhood, but a current 2026 valuation needs to start from recent closed sales on comparable streets, together with today's citywide backdrop, which includes the record $448,400 MLS® benchmark price Saskatoon posted in June 2026.

Why did no condos or townhouses sell in Lakeridge in 2024?

The neighbourhood barely has any to sell. Multi-unit product is only 6 dwellings out of 1,208, and there is no meaningful townhouse or semi-detached row layer to begin with. As a result the 2024 sales year recorded zero apartment condo, condo townhouse, and semi-detached sales, alongside 51 single-family closings. If you own one of the very small handful of non-detached units in Lakeridge, we lean on comparables in the surrounding west-side neighbourhoods rather than a Lakeridge-specific average that does not exist.

Does the age of my Lakeridge house hurt its resale?

Not on its own. About 66 per cent of the neighbourhood was built between 1981 and 1990 and another 30 per cent through the 1990s, so buyers touring these streets are expecting that vintage and pricing accordingly. What can hurt a resale is when a home reads as original throughout while comparable houses on the same block have been carefully updated. Selective updates aimed at the finishes buyers notice first (kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, windows) tend to earn back more than they cost.

Is a finished basement worth the effort before I list my Lakeridge home?

Often yes. So many detached houses in Lakeridge share a similar main-floor footprint that developed basement space is one of the clearer differentiators between comparable listings. Whether it is worth doing depends on what shape the basement is in already, your timeline to list, and the cost of finishing to a standard that photographs well and does not raise inspector concerns. This is one of the questions I get into on the walkthrough.

How do I make my Lakeridge home stand out when other 1980s-built houses on the street look similar?

Because so much of Lakeridge was built inside a narrow window under similar builder specifications, exterior similarity is common. The differentiation has to come from what buyers see once they walk in: updated finishes, a completed basement, thoughtful staging, and photography that highlights details a comparable home a few doors down does not have. A clear paper trail on mechanical replacements also matters, since it removes uncertainty from the offer conversation.

Should I sell my Lakeridge home before buying my next one, or the other way around?

There is no single right answer. Saskatoon sat at roughly 1.6 months of supply as of June 2026 on record-high prices, which means buying first can leave you carrying two properties briefly, and selling first can compress the window to find your next home. For many Lakeridge owners the next move is an upsize inside Saskatoon or a downsize into a smaller detached or a condo elsewhere, and each pattern can sometimes be sequenced with an extended possession clause. We work through your financing and timeline together at the evaluation.

Does the very high owner-occupied share in Lakeridge help me as a seller?

In practical terms, yes. About 97 per cent of Lakeridge dwellings are owner-occupied, one of the highest shares in the city, and that produces a resale market with almost no investor turnovers and a buyer pool that is overwhelmingly end-user. End-user buyers are more emotionally engaged with a walkthrough and pay closer attention to condition, staging, and paperwork, which rewards preparation more consistently than investor-heavy tiers do.

Does listing in spring or summer make a real difference in Lakeridge?

It can. Detached family buyers moving to Lakeridge often prefer to close over summer so kids can start the school year already settled, which adds urgency to spring and early-summer listings on these streets. That said, motivated buyers shop year-round, and the right listing month depends on your own timeline as much as the school calendar.

How long does a well-prepared Lakeridge home usually take to sell right now?

Days-on-market depends heavily on price band and how prepared the listing is when it goes live, and the 2026 number keeps moving as inventory shifts, so a single quoted average is out of date within weeks. What is safe to say is that with citywide supply around 1.6 months as of June 2026, well-prepared and correctly priced Lakeridge detached listings have generally been trading faster than they did a few years ago. I bring current comparables and days-on-market context to the evaluation.

Are Lakeridge houses priced above or below the citywide average right now?

In 2024 the neighbourhood's 51 detached sales averaged $520,321, which sits above the citywide MLS® benchmark residential price of $448,400 recorded in June 2026. That puts Lakeridge in the upper-mid detached band citywide, above entry-level suburban product and below the premium mature neighbourhoods. Your specific number depends on condition, updates, basement development, and lot position rather than the neighbourhood average alone.

Can I get a value on my Lakeridge home without committing to list it?

Yes. The evaluation is free, done in person on your property, and comes with no obligation to list. Many Lakeridge owners use it to cross-check a portal estimate that looks off, to plan an upsize or downsize, or to see whether the equity picture supports a next move before opening a lender conversation. You get a real number based on real comparables and can decide from there.

What's my Lakeridge house worth in 2026?

There is no published 2026 average specific to Lakeridge, so any honest answer starts with a range and narrows once we look at your house. The most recent official numbers are 2024: 51 detached sales at an average of $520,321. Saskatoon's market has tightened considerably since then, with the citywide MLS® benchmark reaching a record $448,400 in June 2026 on roughly 1.6 months of inventory, so treat the 2024 average as a starting reference rather than a current value. Your actual number depends on your street, condition, updates, basement development, mechanical age, and lot position. I price it against comparable houses on your block and in the surrounding streets, which is the only comparison that genuinely holds up.
