Real Estate in Saskatoon is not as volatile as other large centres in Canada such at Vancouver or even Kelowna. Homes in the Riverdales area of Saskatoon can go for as little as $50,000, and homes in the more upscale area of Wildwood will likely be $300,000 plus. In this prairie city real estate follows the age old mantra of “location, location, location.” Real Estate values are rising at a steady pace in Saskatoon, making it an attractive place for investors from outside the province to find revenue or holding properties. Real Estate in Saskatoon is very affordable for people moving from places like Edmonton, Calgary, Ontario, and British Columbia.

Saskatoon is the largest city in Saskatchewan by population. The census of 2006 has the population of the city just over 230,000. Saskatoon is often called the "City of Bridges" for its seven river crossings (it is also occasionally referred to as "The Paris of the Prairies", for the same reason).

Saskatoon is divided into east and west sides by the South Saskatchewan River. Eastern neighbourhoods of Saskatoon include Nutana and Varsity View. Western neighbourhoods of Saskatoon include: Caswell Hill, Central Business District, City Park, King George, Pleasant Hill, Riversdale, and Westmount. Each community has a local flavour reflected in the style and type of real estate available.

Saskatoon is a technology centre for Saskatchewan, as well as a University town hosting the University of Saskatchewan and Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology (SIAST). The city is also home to professional and amateur sports teams such as: the Saskatoon Blades of the WHL, Saskatchewan Huskies of the CIS and Saskatoon Hilltops of the Canadian Junior Football League.  Saskatoon’s Daily newspaper is called The Star Phoenix and an important local online business directory is called Saskatoon.com. The city boasts two policing forces in the RCMP and the Saskatoon Police Service.
