For attached buyers in Coquitlam this September, the data signals a market that still demands preparation: 66 sales against 784 active listings produces an absorption rate of roughly 8.4%, and a 97.82% sale-to-list ratio means accepted offers are landing very close to asking price, leaving little room for aggressive discounting. Sellers of attached properties are in a relatively stronger position, though an average of 72 days on market suggests that overpriced listings are being passed over — accurate pricing from day one remains critical. The detached segment tells a more cautious story: with only 22 sales against 429 active listings, the absorption rate drops to approximately 5.1%, and an average of 106 days on market reflects buyers taking their time in a price range where the average list price exceeds $2,000,000. The 95.83% sale-to-list ratio on detached homes indicates sellers are making meaningful concessions to close deals, making September 2026 a window of relative negotiating leverage for well-qualified detached buyers in Coquitlam.

Key takeaways
With a sale-to-list ratio of 97.82% across 66 attached sales in the past 30 days, Coquitlam’s condo and townhouse buyers are not winning big discounts. A median sold price of $791,850 against an average list of $792,861 confirms that well-positioned attached properties are trading essentially at asking. Buyers should enter this segment with financing confirmed and a clear ceiling price in mind.
Coquitlam’s detached segment is sitting on 429 active listings with just 22 sales recorded in the trailing 30 days as of September 7, 2026. The resulting absorption rate near 5.1% and an average of 106 days on market give buyers meaningful time to negotiate. The 95.83% sale-to-list ratio suggests the average accepted offer is arriving approximately $85,000 below the average list price — real money at this price point.
Attached listings in Coquitlam are averaging 72 days on market in September 2026, while detached properties sit for an average of 106 days. These figures underscore that buyers are not rushed and will bypass overpriced inventory. For sellers in either segment, a data-driven list price calibrated to recent comparable sales is the single most effective tool for reducing time on market and protecting final sale price.
Combined, Coquitlam carries 1,213 active listings across both segments in September 2026, giving buyers a wide selection. The attached segment, despite its higher sales velocity, still holds enough inventory that buyers have alternatives if a particular unit does not meet expectations. In detached, the breadth of choice is even greater, and motivated sellers — those with longer days on market — may be particularly open to structured offers.
