Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, and in 2026, the presale market is busier than ever. New SkyTrain infrastructure, expanding amenities, major civic investments, and continued population growth are driving demand across communities like Bear Creek, Guildford, Fleetwood, and Surrey City Centre.
If you're considering a new condo or townhome in Surrey, the challenge isn't finding options—it's figuring out which community best matches your budget, timeline, lifestyle, and long-term goals.
Some buyers want the lowest entry price. Others prioritize future SkyTrain access, family-friendly neighbourhoods, parks and green space, or the ability to move in sooner. The good news is that Surrey offers communities designed for each of those priorities.
To help simplify the decision, we've compared three active Dawson + Sawyer communities side-by-side:
In this guide, you'll compare pricing, home types, transit access, amenities, neighbourhood features, completion timelines, and buyer profiles to help determine which Surrey presale community is the right fit for you.
Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizer, investor, or growing family, this comparison will help you narrow your search and understand what makes each community unique.
Here is the whole picture in one place. Skim this first, then read the deeper breakdown below.
| Community | Neighbourhood | Home types | Bedrooms | Starting price | Estimated completion | What it is known for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Queens | Bear Creek | Condos and townhomes | 1 to 4 | From the $500,000s | Early 2027 to 2028 | Park-side living with a condo or townhome choice |
| Guildford The Greatest 2 | Guildford | Condos | 1 to 3 | From the $400,000s | Mid 2026 to 2027 | Steps from Guildford Town Centre, earliest move-in |
| Fleetwood Village 2 | Fleetwood | Condos | 1 to 3 | From the $400,000s | Late 2026 to 2027 | Next to the future Fleetwood SkyTrain Station |
At first glance, many Surrey presale communities can seem similar. Most offer brand-new homes, modern finishes, warranty protection, and attractive amenities. The biggest differences usually come down to four key factors:
Starting price often determines which communities make your shortlist. Guildford The Greatest 2 and Fleetwood Village 2 both offer homes from the $400,000s, while Queens starts from the $500,000s and includes both condo and townhome options.
Location influences everything from your daily commute to future resale value. Buyers looking for transit access may prioritize Fleetwood Village 2, while those seeking parks and outdoor space may gravitate toward Queens. Guildford The Greatest 2 appeals to buyers who value shopping, recreation, and central convenience.
Completion dates can significantly impact your decision. Guildford The Greatest 2 offers the earliest anticipated move-in opportunity, Fleetwood Village 2 follows shortly after, and Queens provides buyers with a longer timeline before completion.
Every community offers a different living experience. Some prioritize transit and convenience. Others focus on green space, family living, or extensive amenities. Understanding how you plan to live in your new home often makes the decision much easier.
Let's take a closer look at how each community compares.
QUEENS is our most versatile Surrey presale community because it is the only one on this list offering both condos and townhomes. Located at 7790 King George Boulevard beside Bear Creek Park, QUEENS combines urban convenience with access to one of Surrey's most established park systems and one of the city's fastest-growing neighbourhoods.
QUEENS Condos start from the $500,000s and offer one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes ranging from approximately 647 to 1,373 square feet, and are estimated to be completed in 2028. For buyers who need additional space, QUEENS Townhomes offer spacious three- and four-bedroom layouts complete with private garages and outdoor living areas, and are set to complete in early 2027.
What makes QUEENS unique is its combination of housing choice, green space, and significant public investment in the surrounding community. Residents will enjoy approximately 7,000 square feet of indoor amenities, direct access to Bear Creek Park, and a future 61,000-square-foot City Park immediately adjacent to the community.
Adding to the area's appeal, the City of Surrey is investing more than $310 million into the future Newton Community Centre—the largest capital project investment in the City's history. Planned to open in 2030 just minutes from QUEENS, the 175,000-square-foot facility will feature a 50-metre competition pool, fitness facilities, childcare services, arts and cultural spaces, two gymnasiums, and a new 40,000-square-foot public library.
The location also provides convenient access to the King George Boulevard RapidBus corridor, schools, shopping, everyday services, and Surrey City Centre, making QUEENS an ideal choice for buyers seeking both lifestyle and long-term value.
QUEENS is particularly well-suited for:
The primary trade-off is timing. QUEENS has the latest anticipated completion of the three communities, estimated for 2028. However, many buyers appreciate the additional time to save before possession while securing today's pricing in a neighbourhood benefiting from substantial public investment and planned growth.
Located minutes from Guildford Town Centre, Guildford Recreation Centre, restaurants, services, and major transportation routes, it is designed around convenience.
Homes start from the $400,000s and include one-, two-, and three-bedroom condominium floorplans. For first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors, it remains one of the most accessible entry points into a brand-new Dawson + Sawyer home.
Guildford is one of Surrey's most established neighbourhoods, providing a balance of shopping, recreation, schools, and regional connectivity. Residents are close to Hjorth Road Elementary, Guildford Park Secondary, multiple parks, and convenient connections to Burnaby, Coquitlam, and Highway 1.
The community's amenities are designed to support everyday living, including a rooftop deck, fitness centre, playground, and co-working space.
Guildford The Greatest 2 is particularly well suited for:
Fleetwood Village 2 is built for buyers who believe location matters most. Situated beside the future Fleetwood SkyTrain Station on the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension, it offers one of the strongest transit-oriented locations available in Surrey today.
Homes start from the $400,000s and include one-, two-, and three-bedroom condominium floorplans, with completion anticipated in early 2027.
What truly separates Fleetwood Village 2 is its combination of future transit access and extensive amenities. Residents will enjoy more than 15,000 square feet of outdoor amenity space, including a village green and gathering spaces, along with approximately 5,800 square feet of indoor amenities featuring a fitness centre, yoga studio, climbing wall, and child care facility.
Families are also drawn to the surrounding neighbourhood, with Walnut Road Elementary, Fleetwood Park Secondary, parks, shopping, and everyday services nearby.
Fleetwood Village 2 is particularly well suited for:
Location is where these three communities really begin to separate.
Fleetwood Village 2 is the clear winner for future rapid transit access. Located beside the future Fleetwood SkyTrain Station on the Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension, it offers one of the strongest transit-oriented locations available in Surrey today. Buyers who prioritize commuting, long-term convenience, or future neighbourhood growth will naturally be drawn to Fleetwood.
Queens offers a different advantage. Located on King George Boulevard beside Bear Creek Park, residents benefit from direct access to the R1 RapidBus corridor, major commuter routes, and convenient access to Surrey City Centre. The location combines connectivity with a quieter, park-oriented lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find in Metro Vancouver.
Guildford The Greatest 2 focuses on accessibility and convenience. Situated within walking distance of Guildford Town Centre, Guildford Recreation Centre, schools, restaurants, and services, it provides immediate access to the amenities buyers use every day. Its proximity to Highway 1 also makes commuting throughout Metro Vancouver straightforward.
Living near major transit and employment corridors remains one of the strongest long-term advantages in Surrey real estate. Communities with excellent transportation connections tend to attract strong demand from both homeowners and renters, making location one of the most important factors to consider when comparing Surrey presales.
For buyers focused on future rapid transit, Fleetwood Village 2 stands out. For those seeking a balance of connectivity and green space, Queens is difficult to beat. Buyers who prioritize convenience today will likely find Guildford The Greatest 2 especially appealing.
Budget and move-in timing often narrow the decision quickly.
Guildford The Greatest 2 and Fleetwood Village 2 both offer homes from the $400,000s, making them attractive options for first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors looking for a lower entry point into Surrey's new-home market.
Queens starts from the $500,000s, reflecting its larger variety of home types, park-side setting, and unique offering of both condos and townhomes. Buyers looking for additional space or family-oriented floorplans often find the premium worthwhile.
Completion timing also varies significantly between the communities.
Guildford The Greatest 2 offers the earliest anticipated completion at mid-2026, making it ideal for buyers who want to move into a brand-new home sooner. Fleetwood Village 2 follows in early 2027, while Queens is anticipated to complete in 2028.
That spread can actually be an advantage. Presale ownership allows buyers to secure today's pricing for a home that completes years later. An earlier completion gets you into your new home sooner, while a later completion can provide additional time to save, prepare for your move, or benefit from future neighbourhood growth during construction.
For buyers who prioritize affordability and the shortest timeline, Guildford The Greatest 2 offers a compelling combination. Buyers focused on long-term lifestyle and flexibility may find Queens worth the additional investment.
Every community offers a different interpretation of what makes everyday life enjoyable.
Fleetwood Village 2 features the largest overall amenity package of the three communities. Residents will enjoy more than 15,000 square feet of outdoor amenity space, including gathering areas and recreational features, alongside approximately 5,800 square feet of indoor amenities that include a fitness centre, yoga studio, climbing wall, and child care facility.
Queens takes a different approach. While it offers approximately 7,000 square feet of indoor amenities, its greatest lifestyle feature may be what exists outside the community. Residents enjoy direct access to Bear Creek Park and a future 61,000-square-foot City Park, creating an exceptional outdoor living environment for families, dog owners, and active residents.
Guildford The Greatest 2 emphasizes convenience and community. Amenities include a rooftop deck, playground, fitness centre, and co-working space, all positioned within one of Surrey's most established retail and recreation districts.
Across all three communities, buyers benefit from the same Dawson + Sawyer commitment to quality construction, thoughtful design, energy-efficient systems, EV charging capability, and the Travelers 2-5-10 Home Warranty program.
The best amenity package ultimately depends on how you plan to live. If you value extensive amenities and future transit, Fleetwood Village 2 may be the best fit. If green space and outdoor living matter most, Queens stands apart. If convenience and walkability are your priorities, Guildford The Greatest 2 delivers excellent value.

Surrey continues to be one of the fastest-growing cities in British Columbia, supported by population growth, infrastructure investment, employment expansion, and major transportation improvements.
Purchasing a presale home allows buyers to secure today's pricing for a property that may not complete for several years. This additional time can provide financial flexibility while allowing buyers to participate in future neighbourhood growth.
Communities located near major transit investments, parks, shopping centres, and employment hubs often experience sustained demand from both homeowners and renters.
As with any real estate purchase, buyers should carefully evaluate pricing, completion timelines, deposit structures, rental policies, and long-term goals before making a decision.
