If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs around Albert Park / Radisson Heights and wondering whether the numbers add up - here's the straight story, no fluff.
Our neighbourhood sits in a bit of a split market depending on what you own. Houses and condos are telling two very different stories this month, and knowing which one applies to you could change how you think about your next move.
The headline number looks exciting - the average house sale price hit $569,000 this month, up 33.9% from last month. But before you pop the champagne, context matters. Only 2 houses sold this month, so one strong sale can swing that average hard. The HonestDoor Price for houses sits at $527,584, and it's actually drifting down slightly from the 3-month moving average of $534,121. Values have slipped 1.85% recently.
That 85-day average is the number we should all be paying attention to. Homes in our area are taking longer to sell than the vast majority of Calgary neighbourhoods. Buyers have time on their side right now, and they know it - which is exactly why they're landing deals below list price.
Condos are a different story. The one condo that sold this month moved in just 17 days - that's fast. Days-on-market ranks 14th out of 75 condo neighbourhoods in Calgary. When a condo hits the market here, it doesn't sit around. The catch? The average sale price was $210,000, and the HonestDoor Price has dropped 5.38% recently, sitting at $549,944 on the predicted value side - down from a 3-month average of $599,165.
That condo Airbnb rank of 69th in all of Calgary is worth a second look. At $124 per night in estimated Airbnb income, short-term rental is a real option for condo owners here - more so than in most Calgary neighbourhoods.
Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from months ago, based on data that's already old by the time it lands in your mailbox. The average assessed value for houses in Albert Park / Radisson Heights is $538,068. The HonestDoor Price is $532,194. That's a gap of about $5,874, and it's moving in real time while your assessment sits frozen.
For condos, the gap is even more dramatic. The average assessed value is $330,011, but the HonestDoor Price is $549,944 - that's 66.64% higher than the assessed value. If you're a condo owner making any kind of financial decision based on your tax assessment alone, you're working with a number that doesn't reflect reality.
The HonestDoor Price updates continuously. Your assessment does not. That difference is your real-world check on what your property is actually worth today - not what the city thought it was worth last year.
Honest answer: the timing requires some strategy.
For house sellers, the market is competitive and buyers are patient. With 85 days on market being the average and homes selling at 94.44% of list price, you need to price sharp from day one. Overpricing and then chasing the market down is the worst move you can make right now. Our growth rank of 191 out of 238 means we're not the hottest neighbourhood on Calgary's leaderboard - but a well-priced, well-presented home can still move.
For condo sellers, the speed is on your side. Condos here are moving in 17 days on average, and buyers are paying close to asking. If you're thinking about listing, the window looks better for condos than for houses right now. Just know that values have slipped 5.38% recently, so get a current HonestDoor Price before you set your number.
For anyone thinking about holding and renting instead - a 5.60% rental yield on houses is genuinely strong. At $2,588 per month in estimated rent, the math on holding makes sense if you're not in a rush to sell.
Bottom line: Albert Park / Radisson Heights is affordable by Calgary standards, has real rental upside, and condos are moving fast. Houses need a sharper strategy. Check your HonestDoor Price before you make any move - it's the only number that's actually keeping up with the market.
