If you live in Albion and you have not checked your HonestDoor Price lately, now is the time to do it. The city's assessment and what buyers will actually pay are telling two different stories right now - and the gap matters for your wallet.
Let's be straight with each other. Albion is taking a breather. Neighbourhood growth is down 0.02% year over year, and depending on whether you own a house or a condo, the picture looks pretty different. Here is the breakdown.
If you own a house here, things are holding up reasonably well. The average sale price is sitting at $1,275,000, and price per square foot is around $474. The HonestDoor Price for houses is coming in at $1,229,018 - up slightly from the 3-month moving average of $1,226,589, which tells us values are nudging in the right direction, even if slowly.
That growth rank of 15 out of 23 puts us below the middle of the pack on the Maple Ridge neighbourhood leaderboard. We are not at the bottom, but we are not leading the charge either. The good news is that 20 property transactions happened in 2026 across Albion overall, and the total transaction rank is 4 in Maple Ridge - meaning people are still buying here, which keeps the market from going soft.
This is where we need to have a more honest conversation. Condo values in Albion are sliding. The HonestDoor Price for condos has dropped 4.10% from the previous period, sitting at $901,269. The predicted market value is $939,831, but that number is actually falling - it is down from a 3-month moving average of $975,036. That is a meaningful drop in a short window.
A growth rank of 16 out of 18 puts Albion condos near the bottom of the Maple Ridge leaderboard right now. The one bright spot is that Airbnb rank of 4 in Maple Ridge - if you are renting short-term, Albion condos punch above their weight on that front. But if you are thinking about selling, the trend line is pointing the wrong way.
Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from months ago, sometimes longer. It does not know what happened in the market last quarter. The average assessed value in Albion sits at $1,226,768, but the average HonestDoor Price is $1,206,904 - that is 1.62% lower than what the city says your home is worth. For a property in this price range, that gap is roughly $20,000.
The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual sales data. It is the real-world check against a static government number. If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just figuring out if your property tax bill makes sense - the HonestDoor Price gives you a far more current read on where the market actually is today.
For house owners, the case for selling this summer is decent but not urgent. Values are stable, there is real buyer activity in the neighbourhood, and a rental yield of 4.41% means holding the property still makes financial sense if you are not in a rush. The market is not running away from you, but it is not collapsing either.
For condo owners, the calculus is different. A 4.66% drop in recent value and a growth rank near the bottom of Maple Ridge means waiting for a rebound is a gamble right now. If you have been thinking about selling, getting ahead of further softening is worth a serious conversation. Nearby condos in Spilsbury are priced higher at $1,012,533, which tells us buyers do have options in the area - and they may be choosing them over Albion condos at the moment.
Bottom line - pull your HonestDoor Price today. Know what your home is actually worth in this market, not what the city assessed it at months ago. That number is your starting point for every smart decision you make from here.
