Elements in Whalley: A Complete Building Guide
If you're searching for a well-established concrete condo in Surrey's fast-growing City Centre, Elements at 13339 102A Avenue is worth a close look. Built in 2009 and home to 71 units, this mid-rise building sits in the heart of Whalley — one of Metro Vancouver's most active real estate markets right now.
About the Building
Elements is a concrete-constructed residential building completed in 2009. With 71 homes across its floors, it offers a manageable community feel compared to the massive towers being built in Whalley today. The building is located at 13339 102A Avenue, placing residents steps from Surrey Central SkyTrain Station, Simon Fraser University Surrey Campus, Central City Shopping Centre, and the expanding Surrey City Hall precinct.
One of the standout features of Elements is its relationship with its neighbour — Agenda at 13321 102A Ave — the two buildings share amenities, giving residents access to a broader range of facilities than a standalone 71-unit building would typically offer. This kind of shared amenity arrangement is relatively uncommon and adds genuine value for owners and renters alike.
Location & Walkability
The 102A Avenue corridor in Whalley has transformed significantly since Elements was built. Today, residents enjoy:
- SkyTrain access — Surrey Central Station is within easy walking distance, connecting you to Vancouver, Burnaby, and beyond in under 30 minutes
- University proximity — SFU Surrey Campus is essentially next door, making Elements a popular choice for graduate students, faculty, and university staff
- Shopping & dining — Central City Mall, Save-On-Foods, and dozens of local restaurants are all within a short walk
- Healthcare — Surrey Memorial Hospital is nearby, an important consideration for healthcare workers and families alike
- Parks & recreation — Holland Park, one of Surrey's most beloved green spaces, is just minutes away
Whalley Market Snapshot
Whalley currently leads all Surrey neighbourhoods in active listings volume, with 751 active listings and an average price of approximately $795,000. That average reflects the strong condo-heavy inventory in the area. For buyers, this means real selection and the ability to compare buildings carefully. For sellers at Elements, it means pricing and presentation matter — well-maintained units in concrete buildings with good amenity packages continue to attract serious buyers.
Compared to neighbouring markets like Fraser Heights or Fleetwood Tynehead, Whalley condos offer some of the most accessible price points in Surrey, particularly for first-time buyers and investors targeting the rental market driven by the nearby university population.
Who Buys at Elements?
Elements tends to attract a diverse mix of buyers and residents:
- First-time buyers looking for concrete construction at a realistic price point
- Investors drawn to the SFU and hospital proximity, which supports strong rental demand
- Downsizers who want city centre convenience with SkyTrain access
- University-connected buyers — faculty, staff, and graduate students who want to walk or cycle to campus
What to Know Before You Buy
As with any 2009-era building, buyers should review strata minutes carefully for any history of special levies or major repairs. Concrete construction ages well, but mechanical systems, parking structures, and envelope components all warrant due diligence. Request the Form B, depreciation report, and at least two years of meeting minutes before making an offer. A local realtor familiar with Whalley strata buildings can help you interpret what you find.
Also confirm the specific unit's parking and storage allocation — in a building this size, those details vary and can meaningfully affect resale value.
