Fraserview in Whalley: A Complete Building Guide
If you're exploring condo living in Surrey's busy Whalley neighbourhood, Fraserview at 9835 138 Street is a distinctive option worth knowing about. This 11-unit residential complex sits atop commercial units in the heart of Whalley — a mixed-use format that suits buyers who want walkable urban convenience without the premium price tag of a newer high-rise.
About Fraserview: Building Overview
Built in 1979, Fraserview is a boutique-sized strata of just 11 residential units located at 9835 138 Street in Whalley. The building's mixed-use design places residential suites above ground-floor commercial space — a classic format from that era that remains popular for its live-work energy and street-level activity.
- Address: 9835 138 Street, Surrey, BC
- Neighbourhood: Whalley
- Year Built: 1979
- Total Units: 11 residential units
- Building Type: Mixed-use (residential over commercial)
With only 11 units, Fraserview offers the kind of tight-knit strata community that larger towers simply can't replicate. Smaller stratas often mean lower strata fees, more direct communication among owners, and a greater sense of ownership over shared decisions.
Location: What Makes 9835 138 Street Stand Out
Fraserview's location in Whalley puts residents close to the action of one of Surrey's fastest-evolving urban centres. The area surrounding 138 Street and the King George corridor has seen sustained investment and development activity over the past decade, making it an increasingly attractive pocket for both owner-occupiers and investors.
Residents benefit from proximity to:
- King George SkyTrain Station — connecting directly to Vancouver and the broader Metro Vancouver transit network
- Surrey Central — city hall, libraries, Central City Mall, and SFU Surrey campus
- Holland Park — one of Surrey's most popular green spaces
- A growing selection of restaurants, cafés, and services along 135A Street and the surrounding blocks
The mixed-use nature of the building itself means that day-to-day errands and services may be steps away from your front door — a genuine lifestyle advantage in a neighbourhood where walkability scores continue to improve.
Whalley Market Context: What Buyers Should Know
Whalley currently leads all Surrey neighbourhoods in active listings, with 731 properties available and an average price of approximately $795,000. That makes it one of the most accessible entry points into Metro Vancouver real estate — particularly for first-time buyers or investors watching the Fraser Valley market closely.
Compared to nearby markets like Brighouse (avg $889K) or Brentwood Park (avg $945K), Whalley offers meaningful savings while still delivering SkyTrain access and urban amenities. For buyers priced out of White Rock — where averages sit near $1.63M — Whalley represents a logical alternative with strong long-term fundamentals.

Is Fraserview Right for You?
Fraserview suits a specific type of buyer — someone who values community scale, urban walkability, and affordability over resort-style amenities or a brand-new build. The 1979 construction means buyers should conduct thorough due diligence on the building envelope, plumbing, and strata financials, including depreciation reports and contingency reserve fund balances.
That said, older mixed-use buildings like this often attract buyers who appreciate character, lower strata fees, and the sense of a more intimate community. With only 11 units, getting to know your neighbours is unavoidable — in the best possible way.
