Surrey Presale Condos & New Townhomes

Surrey Presale Condos is a crawler-visible guide to current new construction opportunities in Surrey, British Columbia. The page is generated from published project data and includes 34 active or upcoming Surrey presale records in the database. Featured projects include Harth at Tamanawis Park, Century City Holland Park, GUILDFORD THE GREATEST 2, Bute at Clayton Crest, Guilden. Current published starting prices begin around $299,900, subject to developer availability and verification.

The Surrey presale market includes Clayton Heights, Morgan Heights, Newton, Surrey Central, Fleetwood, South Surrey, Bear Creek, Guildford. Buyers should compare address, transit access, floor plan efficiency, deposit structure, completion timing, developer history and incentives before selecting a unit. A city page is useful for narrowing the search before moving into individual project pages with floor plans, pricing sheets and availability checks.

For BC presales in 2026, buyers should expect staged deposits that commonly average 5–15% depending on the project. Buyers should not assume interest is paid on deposits, and REDMA rescission penalties should not be treated as buyer costs. Assignment permissions, rental rules, strata estimates and completion dates must be confirmed project by project because developer terms vary.

Use this Surrey page to compare project names, addresses, starting prices and completion timing, then request VIP pricing when a specific floor plan matches your budget. PresaleProperties.com can verify the latest developer release, incentives, deposit schedule and appointment availability before you commit to a worksheet or contract.

Surrey at a Glance

Surrey is the second-largest city in British Columbia and on track to surpass Vancouver in population within the next decade. With more than 600,000 residents, the fastest population growth in Metro Vancouver, and the largest school district in the province, Surrey is the centre of new construction supply south of the Fraser. The city is investing heavily in transit, post-secondary education, healthcare, and downtown densification — and presale supply is responding accordingly. This page is the most complete buyer-side resource for Surrey presale condos and townhomes, built from live developer data and updated continuously.

Why Buy a Presale in Surrey in 2026

Buying a Surrey presale in 2026 means buying into a city in the middle of its most aggressive growth cycle in 30 years. VIP pricing on early phases is typically 5–10% below public release pricing, and developers often layer in deposit reductions, included parking and storage, and decorating credits that further widen the gap. Deposit structures average 5–15% staged over 12–24 months, which lets buyers lock in 2026 pricing without carrying mortgage payments during construction. Appreciation potential is anchored by Surrey-Langley SkyTrain, SFU Surrey expansion, the new medical school, and the City Centre redevelopment plan. The BC Home Flipping Tax is structured around resale within two years of completion, not contract signing, so long-hold presale buyers are largely insulated. For end-users, that combination of locked pricing, modest deposits, and a 2-5-10 home warranty often makes presale a lower-risk path to a new Surrey home than chasing scarce resale inventory.

Surrey Neighbourhoods for Presale Investment

Surrey City Centre (Whalley / Surrey Central)

Surrey City Centre is the metropolitan core of South of Fraser. It's anchored by King George and Surrey Central SkyTrain stations, SFU Surrey, Kwantlen Polytechnic, City Hall, the new Surrey Central Library, and Holland Park. The area is the focal point of the City Centre Plan, with millions of square feet of approved residential, office, and institutional density. Towers here are typically concrete high-rises with strong rental absorption from students and downtown commuters. New medical school facilities and the planned hospital expansion add long-term demand.

Active presale projects: Century City Holland Park, 102+Park, BridgeCity, Parkway 2, Georgetown II, The Manhattan, Pura, City Corners II

Who it suits: Best for investors targeting rental yield, students, downsizers wanting transit access, and first-time buyers who need entry-level pricing in a true urban setting.

Clayton Heights & West Clayton

Clayton Heights is one of Surrey's most family-driven submarkets, sitting on the Cloverdale plateau between 188th and 196th Streets. It's known for newer wood-frame townhomes, walkable village retail at Clayton Crossing, and access to top-rated public and private schools. West Clayton is the next phase of master-planned expansion with new elementary and secondary schools approved. Commute times to Langley, Cloverdale, and South Surrey business parks are short, and 64 Avenue connects quickly to Highway 15 and the U.S. border.

Active presale projects: Salton, Bute at Clayton Crest, Atlin

Who it suits: Best for young families upgrading from condos, dual-income professionals commuting south, and investors looking for strong long-term appreciation in family townhomes.

Cloverdale

Cloverdale is Surrey's heritage town centre, with a walkable historic downtown along 176A Street, the Cloverdale Rodeo grounds, and a tight-knit community feel. Newer townhome and low-rise condo developments have filled in around 60 Avenue and 64 Avenue, while the Cloverdale Hospital expansion and ongoing infill have lifted the area's profile. Schools, parks, and the Cloverdale Athletic Park draw families that want suburban scale without losing connection to a real downtown core.

Active presale projects: Charlton

Who it suits: Best for families wanting community character, professionals working in Langley or Cloverdale's industrial belt, and buyers seeking new construction in a more established neighbourhood.

Fleetwood

Fleetwood is the next major SkyTrain frontier. The Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension brings four new stations through the Fraser Highway corridor, including 152 Street, 160 Street, and 166 Street stations directly serving Fleetwood. The City of Surrey's Fleetwood Plan rezones large portions of 156 to 168 Street for transit-oriented density. That makes today's Fleetwood townhome and condo presales among the most leveraged plays on Surrey's transit build-out.

Active presale projects: Nature Haus, Fleetwood Village 2 Building 7, Onyx & Ivory, Liberty Encore

Who it suits: Best for forward-looking investors positioning ahead of SkyTrain delivery, families who want a quiet neighbourhood now and transit later, and end-users who want long-term appreciation upside.

South Surrey & White Rock Border

South Surrey runs from the Nicomekl River south to the U.S. border and includes Grandview Heights, Morgan Heights, Sunnyside, Ocean Park, and the White Rock border communities. It's Surrey's premium submarket, with newer master-planned communities, top-tier secondary schools, Morgan Crossing and Grandview Corners retail, and Pacific Ocean access at Crescent Beach and White Rock Pier. Presale inventory tends to be larger, finished to a higher standard, and priced accordingly.

Active presale projects: The Loop, Edgewood, Chelsea, Finestra, Harlowe

Who it suits: Best for move-up families, lifestyle-driven downsizers from West Side Vancouver, cross-border buyers, and investors targeting higher-end tenants with stable demand.

Newton & Panorama Ridge

Newton is the cultural and commercial heart of Punjabi-speaking Surrey, anchored by Newton Town Centre, Strawberry Hill, and Sullivan Heights. Panorama Ridge offers larger lots and view properties along the bluff above the Serpentine Valley. The area is family-dense, with strong religious and community institutions, mature schools, and quick access to Highway 10 and Highway 99. Newer townhome supply along 64 Avenue and 152 Street is rare and tends to sell quickly to multigenerational South Asian families.

Active presale projects: Harth at Tamanawis Park, Spera, Harmony, Havenwood, Signature

Who it suits: Best for South Asian families wanting community continuity, multigenerational households needing larger floor plans, and end-users prioritizing schools and faith centres.

Surrey Skytrain Expansion — What It Means for Presale Values

The Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension is the single most important infrastructure project for Surrey real estate in a generation. It extends the Expo Line 16 kilometres east from King George Station along the Fraser Highway corridor to Langley City Centre, with eight new stations including 140 Street, Green Timbers, 152 Street (Fleetwood), 160 Street, 166 Street, 184 Street, 196 Street, and Langley City Centre. Construction is well underway and the line is targeted to open by the end of the decade. Historical data from the Evergreen Line and Canada Line shows that condo prices within 800 metres of new stations typically appreciate 15–25% above the surrounding market in the years before and after opening. For Surrey, that means presale projects in Fleetwood, along 152 Street, and around 160–168 Street are sitting on the most concentrated transit-driven appreciation curve in the region. Rental demand will follow, particularly from SFU Surrey and Kwantlen students, downtown commuters, and renters priced out of the Expo Line's western half. Buyers who can identify projects within a comfortable walk of a future station are positioning ahead of a multi-year value step-up that doesn't exist anywhere else in Metro Vancouver right now.

Surrey Buyer Profile — Who's Buying Presale Here

Surrey's presale buyer pool is more diverse than any other Metro Vancouver submarket. Roughly half of current Surrey presale demand comes from first-time buyers using 5% deposit programs and the federal First Home Savings Account, often dual-income couples in their late 20s and early 30s priced out of Burnaby and Vancouver. A second large cohort is investor-buyers from Vancouver, Toronto, and Calgary chasing the rental yield gap created by Surrey's lower entry pricing relative to comparable rental income. The third major group is returning South Asian families — many multigenerational — who want new construction near established Newton, Sullivan, and Panorama Ridge community institutions. The fourth is education-driven, with parents purchasing near SFU Surrey and Kwantlen Polytechnic for student housing and longer-term family use. Each profile has different deposit, floor plan, and timing needs, which is why Surrey presale shopping benefits from a buyer-side specialist who understands the full inventory.

Building South Asian Buyer Trust in Surrey

We speak Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu, and a large share of our Surrey clients are South Asian families navigating presale in their second or third language. Uzair Muhammad was raised in Surrey and spent ten years working at the City of Surrey before becoming a realtor, which means contracts, deposit timelines, and developer commitments are explained in your language and your context. We do not gate-keep developer access, we do not sell on commission pressure, and we represent the buyer only. A dedicated Punjabi-language Surrey presale guide is in development at /punjabi — in the meantime, please call (672) 258-1100 in any of the three languages.

Surrey Presale Process — Step by Step

  1. VIP price list review — we share the unreleased developer price sheet, floor plan inventory, and any launch-day incentives before the project opens to the public.
  2. Contract signing with 7-day rescission — once you select a unit and sign, BC law gives you 7 calendar days to cancel without penalty after receiving the disclosure statement.
  3. 5–15% staged deposit schedule — deposits are paid in stages tied to the construction calendar, held in a lawyer's trust account and protected under REDMA.
  4. Assignment options pre-completion — depending on the project, you may be able to sell the contract before completion subject to developer consent and an assignment fee.
  5. Pre-delivery inspection at occupancy — you walk the home with the developer to document any deficiencies before completion and key handover.
  6. Final mortgage approval — your lender requalifies you against current rates and current appraisal value, typically 30–60 days before completion.
  7. Completion plus GST and PTT settlement — your lawyer handles GST (5%, with rebate where applicable), Property Transfer Tax, legal fees, adjustments, and registration on completion day.

Surrey Presale FAQ

How much deposit is required for Surrey presales?

Most current Surrey presale projects use staged deposit structures averaging 5–15% of the purchase price. A common Surrey condo schedule is 5% at signing, 5% at 90 days, and an additional 5% at 1 year, though some developers now offer 5%-only deposit programs to attract first-time buyers.

What's the cheapest Surrey presale right now?

Entry-level Surrey condos in our database currently start in the high $200,000s for studios and small one-bedrooms in Whalley, Newton, and South Surrey. Pricing changes with each release, so request the live VIP price sheet before assuming any specific number is still available.

Which Surrey neighbourhood appreciates fastest?

Historically, Surrey City Centre and the Fraser Highway corridor (Fleetwood, Guildford, City Centre) have shown the strongest sustained appreciation, driven by SkyTrain, SFU Surrey, and rezoning. South Surrey and Clayton Heights have led on family-home appreciation as supply tightens.

Do Surrey presales come with parking?

Most Surrey condo presales include one parking stall in the price, with an option to purchase a second. Townhomes typically come with two-car side-by-side or tandem garages. Always confirm parking and storage in the disclosure statement before signing.

Can I assign my Surrey presale before completion?

Many Surrey developers allow assignments after a holding period, often subject to an assignment fee in the $5,000–$10,000 range and developer consent. Assignment policy varies by project — review the contract and disclosure statement to confirm before relying on a pre-completion exit.

What's the GST on a Surrey presale?

Presale homes in BC are subject to 5% federal GST on the purchase price. Buyers using the home as their principal residence may qualify for the GST New Housing Rebate, which reduces the net GST owing on homes priced under $450,000 and partially under $500,000.

Are there any Surrey presale incentives right now?

Yes — multiple Surrey projects are currently offering buyer incentives such as deposit reductions, included parking and storage, decorating allowances, AC upgrades, and price discounts on remaining inventory. The full live list is shown in the Current Surrey Incentives section above.

How does the BC Home Flipping Tax affect Surrey presales?

The BC Home Flipping Tax applies to homes resold within two years of acquisition, with the tax rate scaling down over that window. For presale buyers, the holding period generally starts at completion, not contract signing, so most long-term presale buyers and investors are not impacted.

When do Surrey presales complete?

Active Surrey presale completion dates in our database currently span late 2026 through 2029. Wood-frame townhome projects typically complete 18–30 months from launch, while concrete towers in City Centre often run 36–54 months.

Is Surrey better than Langley for presale investment?

Surrey offers more density, more SkyTrain stations, lower entry prices, and stronger rental demand thanks to SFU Surrey and the new medical school. Langley offers larger floor plans and family-oriented townhomes. The right choice depends on whether you optimize for rental yield (Surrey) or end-user appreciation (Langley).

How do I get VIP pricing access for Surrey presales?

VIP pricing is released to registered buyers through partnered developer launches before public openings. Register on any project page, or call (672) 258-1100 to be added to the Presale Properties Surrey VIP list for upcoming releases.

Are presales safer than resale in Surrey right now?

Presales in Surrey carry construction and timing risk but offer locked-in 2026 pricing, 2-5-10 home warranty coverage, and modern building code. Resale offers immediate occupancy but no warranty and typically higher per-square-foot pricing on newer Surrey buildings. Safety depends on developer track record and your timeline.

Common BC presale questions

What is a presale condo in BC?

A presale (pre-construction) condo is a home you buy from a developer before it is built, typically at today's price with a staged deposit, and you take possession when construction completes — often 1–4 years later.

How much deposit do I need for a presale in BC?

Deposits are staged and typically total 5%–20% of the purchase price, paid in instalments tied to milestones (e.g., on signing, then at set intervals). The exact structure varies by project and developer.

Do buyers pay commission on a presale?

No. With The Presale Properties Group, buyers pay $0 — the developer pays the buyer-agent commission. Using a buyer-side agent does not increase your price.

Is there GST on presale condos in BC?

Yes. New-construction homes in BC are subject to 5% GST. A partial GST rebate may apply for owner-occupiers depending on the price; investors are treated differently. Confirm specifics for your situation.

Are presale deposits protected in BC?

Under BC's Real Estate Development Marketing Act (REDMA), presale deposits are generally held in trust. Protections and conditions depend on the contract and developer.

What is an assignment sale?

An assignment is the sale of a presale contract to a new buyer before the building completes. Assignment is only allowed if the original developer contract permits it, and tax (including GST on the assignment) can apply.

Why use a buyer-side presale specialist instead of going to the developer's sales centre?

The developer's sales staff represent the developer's interests. A buyer-side specialist represents only you — comparing projects, negotiating incentives, reviewing contracts and disclosure statements, and accessing VIP pricing — at no cost to you.

Who runs The Presale Properties Group?

Uzair Muhammad, a Surrey-based REALTOR (Real Broker) who spent 10 years at the City of Surrey before real estate. The team has helped 400+ buyers and holds a 5.0 Google rating.
