What is the typical price for a Fort Langley townhouse in 2026?
Direct answer
As of Q1 2026, Fraser Valley Real Estate Board benchmark data placed Fort Langley townhouses in roughly the $850K-$1.2M range, with Bedford Landing waterfront-adjacent units pricing at the upper end and older 1990s product (e.g., the Sterling-style courtyards north of Glover Road) closer to the lower end. The exact benchmark and HPI for "Fort Langley" as a sub-area is published monthly by the FVREB; verify the live current-month figure before relying on a price band for an offer. Worked example for closing-cost math on a $1.0M Fort Langley townhouse (resale, non-FTHB buyer): standard PTT = 1% × $200K + 2% × $800K = $18,000 PTT; legal/notary ~$1,500-2,000; title insurance ~$300-500; property-tax adjustment varies; total closing costs typically $20,000-$24,000 cash on completion day on top of the down payment. For a first-time-buyer purchase (Canadian citizen or PR, never owned anywhere): the FTHB exemption phases out above $860K — a $1.0M townhouse pays full PTT with no exemption. For a NEWLY BUILT townhouse (e.g., a 2024-2026 Bedford Landing release) under $1.1M: the Newly Built Home Exemption can wipe PTT to zero. GST applies on new construction at 5% on top — a material additional cost.
