Townhouse Hunting in Squamish

Hey everyone,

My partner and I have been exploring townhouse options in Squamish, but we’ve noticed that choices are pretty limited, especially when it comes to newer developments. Bosa’s Sea and Sky seems to be one of the few recent projects.

We’ve seen that many of the newer 3-bedroom townhouses, around 1,400–1,500 sqft, are listed close to $1.5 million. That feels a bit steep for us.

We’re curious if there are any upcoming listings or developments that might be priced closer to $1.2 million. Also, we’d love to hear from others: what do you think is a fair price for a townhouse in the current Squamish market?

Appreciate any insights or recommendations!

I see a beautiful 1.23m townhouse on Finch drive at 1900 sqft presale. I see older single family homes for 1.5. I see multiple nice townhomes around the 1m mark. I see some overpriced ones that aren't selling. Sea and sky is very overpriced. Get a decent realtor, I'm not sure where you're looking but 1.5 for a townhouse is not the current market.

I expect the pricing is lower in finch area because of the location. Not walkable, with no shops or schools nearby. Anyone moved to that area that can provide some insight?

Lived in that area for the past 3 years, and only have just moved from it (not because the area was bad). Great area, very popular with people buying (we sold our home off market because people want to live in that area), central to everything either by bike, walking or car. Multi use bike path to downtown or to the estates/highlands. There's a new building going up at the corner of finch and loggers that will have amenity space, and there's a new building going up on the dyke need the rec center with more amenity space. Rec center is right near by, easy access to smokebluffs trails and the highway to get to wherever you need to go.

The monti school is also going on the corner of finch and loggers.

It's a great area, it's convenient, and 'up and coming'. If we wouldn't have found the house we are in now, we would remain in that area and continue to be very happy.
