Buying a Home in Yorkson: What's Here, What It Costs and What to Check

Yorkson is about 82% built out, according to the Township’s September 2025 planning report, so much of what you will tour is recent construction: townhouses, apartments and detached homes, with a few projects still going up. The thing to know up front: nobody publishes prices for Yorkson on its own, so the numbers below describe all of Langley, and the checks that matter are address by address.

What kinds of homes are there?

The Yorkson Neighbourhood Plan allows detached houses, townhouses, apartments and mixed-use buildings, and you can see the building eras in the project names. Lakeside at Yorkson, 35 homes, was completed in 2007. Yorkson Grove Apartments dates to 2014. The projects in the table below are more recent. If a listing describes a large lot or an older house, treat it as a one-off and ask about its water, sewer and zoning, because we found no neighbourhood-wide inventory of septic systems, wells or legal suites.

What do homes cost?

The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board publishes benchmark prices for Langley as one market, covering the City and the Township. These are representative values for the whole market. They aren’t medians, asking prices or valuations of a Yorkson address.

All three were lower than both the previous month and a year earlier. That shows the direction of Langley as a whole. It doesn’t tell you what a particular Yorkson development did.

Newer projects in and around Yorkson

Status is as of October 2026 and comes from public project pages. This is information, not a sales list, and it isn’t a full list of applications.

An approved rezoning doesn’t mean a building start or a move-in date. Use the Township’s development applications page to see what is on file for a block, and the Langley-wide buying a home guide for the purchase steps.

Checks before you buy

• Read the designation next door. A vacant lot near 208 St and 80 Ave or 83 Ave should not be assumed to stay empty. Check the plan, the zoning and any current application.
• Look at the frontage as it is now. 80 Avenue and 208 Street have been rebuilt in stages, with sidewalks, cycling lanes, medians and access changes. 80 Avenue was finished in July 2026, 208 Street phase 3 road work in August, and phase 4 is still in progress. Don’t rely on an older listing photo.
• Check the creek and streamside rules. The Township’s mapping is a screening tool, not a survey. No one can tell you a Yorkson lot is flood-free from a neighbourhood label. Ask for the specific lot.
• Read the strata documents. Ask about roof and balcony work, enclosed balconies, underground waterproofing, insurance and EV charging. These are questions to ask, not defects we are alleging in any building.
• Test the parking. Ask whether the second stall is tandem and whether storage has taken over a garage bay. Street space isn’t reserved for the home beside it.
• Visit the north edge twice. Highway 1 noise varies from house to house.
• Check both school years. Boundaries move in September 2027; see Yorkson schools.
• Check services and suites parcel by parcel. Request municipal property records instead of assuming from the lot size or an advertisement.

Property tax

The Township’s 2026 residential tax rate is $3.61686 per $1,000 of assessed value. At $500,000 assessed that is $1,808.43; at $800,000, $2,893.49; at $1.5 million, $5,425.29. These are our calculations from the official rate, before grants, utilities or other charges, and they aren’t typical Yorkson bills. Assessed value and sale price are different things. For due dates see property tax dates and the property tax and utilities guide.
