Quick Answer
In the September 2026 Coquitlam market, the average sold home took 50 days on market for detached, 31 for townhouses and 39 for apartments (GVR). Well-priced detached homes in high-demand catchments (Burke Mountain, Westwood Plateau, Heritage Mountain) can sell much faster; condos in Burquitlam and Town Centre vary widely by building, layout, and price-positioning. Slow markets stretch to 60-90+ days. Pricing accuracy is the single biggest factor — overpriced homes sit for months.

“Craig kept me informed of the local market for a couple of years before I asked him to handle my Coquitlam sale. He laid out the strategy upfront, the listing generated a lot of interest, and we had an acceptable offer in under a month. I was stressed going in — Craig helped me overcome a lot of my anxiety. I’ve already introduced him to my sister, who plans to sell soon.”Fj Young
“Craig was there with us everyday. Guiding us to our next step we were kept informed daily sometimes multiple times a day as to what was happening… Our home sold in only 6 days with multiple offers.”Gerry & Aline Howitson
“After searching for several years, I knew exactly what I was looking for—and Craig delivered. We viewed a handful of properties, and the home he ultimately found was exactly what I had been searching for. I couldn't believe how quickly he nailed it.”Warren Chu
