If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in 09 Q, here's what's actually happening. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $1,248,275 - up 3.81% from the previous period. That's real money moving in the right direction. But the short-term picture is a bit more honest: the predicted market value for houses is currently $1,202,412, which is sitting below the 3-month moving average of $1,249,379. The market here isn't crashing - it's taking a breather.
That recent -4.32% shift in property values is worth paying attention to. It doesn't mean panic. It means timing matters more than ever if you're thinking about making a move this summer.
Here's the thing about 09 Q - we're in a different price league than the streets around us. Forest Lawn Industrial comes in at an average HonestDoor Price of $1,055,861. Red Carpet sits at $459,482. Erin Woods is at $453,034. We're not just a little ahead - we're significantly above every nearby neighbourhood on the list. That gap matters when buyers are comparison shopping and deciding where their dollar goes furthest.
On the growth leaderboard, 09 Q ranks 222 out of 236 comparable neighbourhoods in Calgary. That puts us near the bottom of the pack for recent growth. It's not a number to ignore. But it also doesn't erase the fact that our base prices are still well above the surrounding area.
Your city assessment is a snapshot from months ago. It doesn't know what happened last quarter. It doesn't know that the 3-month moving average just dipped. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time - it's the number that reflects what a buyer would actually put on the table today, not what a government office calculated last winter.
Right now, with values shifting and the predicted price sitting below the recent moving average, the gap between your tax assessment and your real-world value could be significant - in either direction. Checking your HonestDoor Price costs nothing. Not knowing what your home is actually worth right now could cost you a lot more.
Here's the straight talk. The 3-month moving average of $1,249,379 is higher than the current predicted value of $1,202,412. That's roughly a $47,000 difference. If you were hoping to catch the peak of that moving average, the window may be tightening. A growth rank of 222 out of 236 tells us momentum isn't exactly charging uphill right now.
That said, 09 Q homes are still commanding over $1.2 million on average - and rental demand is real. A $4,724 monthly rental estimate with a 4.54% yield means buyers who can't quite afford to live here might still want to own here. That's a selling point worth putting in your listing.
The move? Get your HonestDoor Price pulled up today. Know your number. Then decide if this summer is your summer - before the market decides for you.
