Sell Your Home in Vauxhall

Vauxhall calls itself the Potato Capital of the West, and irrigated farming drives the town. Fields watered by the Bow River Irrigation District surround it, and potato packing and processing provide jobs in town. It's also one of the youngest communities in southern Alberta. 2% Realty lists Vauxhall homes on the MLS® System with full service from local REALTORS®, for a 2% total commission.*

Vauxhall's buyers and homes

Vauxhall's median age in 2021 was 29.4, much younger than most of the region. Families with children make up a big share of buyers, and many work in agriculture, food processing or irrigation, or in Taber.

About 80% of occupied homes were single-detached houses and about 11% were mobile homes, with a few semi-detached homes and apartments. About three in four households owned their home. Many homes were built before 1981, so updates and condition carry a lot of weight with buyers.

Tips for Vauxhall sellers

• Show family space. Bedroom count, a finished basement and a fenced yard are what local family buyers look for first.
• Document your updates. On older homes, a list of upgrades with dates (roof, windows, furnace, plumbing, electrical) helps buyers and their lenders.
• Reach beyond town. Some buyers come from Taber, Brooks or Lethbridge for local jobs. An MLS® listing with strong photos reaches them all.
