Who Laredo I Suits
Growing Families
With up to four bedrooms and fenced-feeling private yards, these townhomes work well for families who want space for kids and pets without taking on the price tag and upkeep of a detached house. At 57 units, the community is large enough to feel established but small enough to avoid the anonymity of a massive complex.
Downsizers and Move-Up Buyers
Buyers coming out of condos often find that a two- or three-bedroom townhome at Laredo I gives them real living space, a yard, and ground-level access, with no elevator and no shared walls above or below.
Investors

The Cloverdale Location
Cloverdale has long held a distinct identity within Surrey. It's known for its historic downtown, agricultural roots, the Cloverdale Rodeo and Exhibition, and a more small-town feel than most of the city. The area's market reflects that appeal: our current data shows 295 active listings in Cloverdale with an average price of about $1.279 million, much of which is driven by detached homes and newer developments.
That context is what makes townhomes like those at Laredo I notable. In a neighbourhood where the average listing sits well above $1.2 million, an established townhome community can offer an accessible way into Cloverdale without compromising on space.

How Laredo I Compares to Nearby Areas
Buyers weighing Cloverdale often cross-shop adjacent communities. Here's how the averages stack up based on current listings:
- Sullivan Station: 234 active listings, average around $1.284 million
- Clayton: 149 active listings, average around $1.341 million
- Fleetwood Tynehead: 308 active listings, average around $1.351 million
- West Newton: 211 active listings, average around $961K
Townhomes typically price below these area-wide averages, since the averages include detached houses. Clayton in particular is a close neighbour with many newer townhome developments, but Laredo I's 2005 vintage means buyers get a more mature, settled community with established landscaping that newer builds simply can't match yet.
What to Look For When Buying at Laredo I
Since the complex dates to 2005, a few due-diligence items are worth prioritizing:
- Depreciation report: Ask for the most recent report and review projected major repairs such as roofing, siding, and envelope work.
- Contingency reserve fund: A healthy balance signals responsible strata management and reduces the risk of special levies.
- Strata minutes: Read at least two years of minutes for discussion of upcoming projects, bylaw disputes, or recurring maintenance issues.
- Backyard specifics: Because the private yards are a major draw, confirm any strata rules about fencing, landscaping, sheds, or modifications.
- Unit condition and updates: Original 2005 finishes may be ready for refresh, so factor kitchen, flooring, and bathroom updates into your budget.
