If you own a home in Aberdeen and you have not checked your HonestDoor Price lately, you are probably leaving money on the table. The city's assessment is frozen in time. The real market is not. Here is what is actually going on in our neighbourhood right now.
If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs on Aberdeen's streets, here is what the numbers are telling us. The average sale price for houses this month sits at $686,033, which is down 9.6% from last month. That sounds alarming, but context matters. Listings are averaging $735,486, and homes are still selling at 98.36% of list price. Buyers are negotiating, but not by much.
Homes here are sitting about twice as long as in Upper Sahali, where the average is 16 days. That gap tells us Aberdeen houses need sharp pricing right now to move. The market is not broken - it is just asking sellers to be realistic. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, our growth rate ranks 16 out of 27 neighbourhoods in Kamloops, which puts us in the middle of the pack. Days on market, though, ranks 3 out of 21 - meaning when a house here is priced right, it still sells fast.
Condos in Aberdeen are doing something interesting. Only 1 sold this month, so we are working with a small sample, but the signals are worth paying attention to. The average sale price came in at $339,700, and the HonestDoor Price for condos is sitting at $1,183,761 - up 3.67% from the previous period. That is a significant jump, and it puts Aberdeen condos in the top tier for growth on the Kamloops leaderboard: ranked 4 out of 27 neighbourhoods.
The condo market here is stable and quietly building momentum. If you own one, this is not a moment to sleep on.
Here is the thing about your city assessment. It is a snapshot from months ago, calculated using a formula that does not know what your renovated kitchen looks like or what your neighbour's place just sold for last week. It is a bureaucratic estimate, not a market one.
The average assessed value for a house in Aberdeen is $769,791. The average HonestDoor Price is $805,032. That is a gap of 4.58% - real money that the assessment is simply not capturing. For condos, the gap is even more dramatic. The average assessed value is $377,721, while the HonestDoor Price is $1,183,761. That is a 213.40% difference. If you are making any financial decision based on the assessed value alone, you are working with the wrong number.
The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual transaction data, current market trends, and comparable sales. It is the real-world check that the annual assessment cannot be. With 3,166 houses and 285 condos assessed in Aberdeen this year, and 97 total property transactions recorded in 2026, there is enough data here to give you a picture that is far more accurate than what arrives in your mailbox from the city.
If selling is on your mind, here is the honest take for Aberdeen right now.
For house sellers, the market is cooling slightly. Prices dipped last month, homes are taking a bit longer to move, and buyers know they have a little room to negotiate. That does not mean it is a bad time to sell - it means you need to price smart from day one. Overpricing and then chasing the market down is the worst move you can make right now. Come in sharp, and our days-on-market rank of 3 out of 21 in Kamloops tells you the demand is still there.
For condo owners, the window looks more interesting. Values are trending up, the predicted market value of $1,141,803 is climbing past the 3-month moving average of $1,093,070, and Aberdeen condos rank 4th in Kamloops for growth. If you have been sitting on the fence, this is the kind of momentum that does not always last.
For anyone thinking about holding and renting instead, the numbers are solid. Houses are pulling an estimated $3,587 per month in rent with a 5.06% rental yield. That is a strong return by any measure. Condos are sitting at $3,424 per month with a 3.65% yield - moderate, but steady.
Bottom line - Aberdeen is not a neighbourhood in trouble. It is a neighbourhood in transition. Check your HonestDoor Price before you make any move. The city's number is not your number.
