Alma, New Brunswick
As of October 10, 2026, Alma has 2 active MLS® listings.

Alma is a small coastal village at the gateway to Fundy National Park, known for its working fishing wharf, dramatic tides, and tourism-driven local economy. The neighbourhood is compact and walkable near Main Street and the waterfront, with a mix of older detached homes, cottages, and small multi-unit or short-stay style properties. Demographics skew toward long-term local households plus a seasonal influx of visitors and part-time residents; demand is strongest in late spring through fall due to park traffic and Fundy coastline tourism.
Amenities are centered on the village core: local restaurants, small retail/services, the harbour, and immediate access to trails and beaches in Fundy National Park. Day-to-day needs beyond basics often require driving to Sussex/Moncton for larger shopping and healthcare, so car dependence is high and public transit options are very limited. Schools serving the area are small and typically within the broader Albert County catchment (families often commute to nearby communities for a full range of programs). Real estate trends tend to be less liquid than urban New Brunswick markets, with prices influenced by lifestyle/second-home interest and short-term rental economics; values can be more sensitive to seasonality, insurance/coastal exposure, and buyer pool size than in larger centres.
Alma’s for-sale market is extremely tight right now with just 2 active listings, and current asking prices cluster around a median of $289,500, reflecting a small sample that can shift quickly as new homes come on. With listings averaging 109 days on market so far, buyers and investors may find room to negotiate, particularly between simpler village homes and more premium properties closer to Fundy views or park access, where pricing and pace can differ even within the city.
