Living in Chilliwack Proper East: What the Listings Say

Detached houses make up 52. 5 percent of what is listed in Chilliwack Proper East, 63 homes in all. The median home here was built in 1977. That age shows in the mix. Condos account for 28 listings at a 299,900 median, while townhouses add another 20 with a median of 537,400. Seven properties fall under the Other homes label, and two half duplexes round out the 120 active listings. The median living area sits at 1,510 square feet. Detached prices run to a 799,968 median, the highest of the standard house types. Together these numbers point to an established area with a broad range of ages and sizes. You get older stock, not new construction, across most of what is for sale.

The median 1,510 square feet gives you a house you can actually run without a full-time job maintaining it. On a strata property, the median fee here is 396 dollars a month. That figure matters most to the 28 condo owners and 20 townhouse buyers, where the fee covers exterior upkeep on stock built around 1977. Do the math before you commit. A condo at the 299,900 median carries a very different monthly picture than a detached house at 799,968, where there is no strata fee but every repair lands on you. At 385 dollars per square foot, the pricing sits below the detached-only medians because condos and townhouses pull it down. Daily life leans practical. You are buying into an area where 39 listings sit under 500,000 and another 34 land between 500,000 and 750,000, so the entry points are real. Older buildings mean older systems. Budget for that. The Newmark, Tully Lane, and The Summit each carry a handful of active units if strata living is the direction you want.

Start with the 29 listings that came on in the last 30 days. That flow tells you the market keeps restocking, so waiting a week rarely means missing everything. Pick your band first. If you want in under 500,000, 39 listings meet that today, mostly condos near the 299,900 median. If you are after a detached house, the 63 on offer center on 799,968, and you should tour a few before you fix your budget. Get a home inspector who knows 1977-era systems. On stock this age, that report changes what you offer. Book showings across two property types, not one, and let the numbers decide.
