If you own a home in Alice Brown and you're still quoting your city assessment to friends, you might be off by more than you think. The market has shifted, and the numbers on paper don't tell the full story.
Let's be straight with each other. The Alice Brown market is taking a breather. Here's the snapshot for Houses:
Two sales in the neighbourhood this year tells us buyers are being selective. We're not in a frenzy. We're in a "wait and see" moment, which matters a lot if you're thinking about listing.
Here's where Alice Brown sits among its peers in Langley. Growth ranks 13 out of 17 neighbourhoods - that puts us in the below-average tier right now. Price rank is 12 out of 17, also below average. That's not a crisis, but it's worth knowing before you assume your home is outpacing the city.
How do nearby streets compare?
All three neighbours are sitting at the same growth rate. This isn't an Alice Brown problem - it's a broader Langley story right now.
Your city assessment was calculated months ago using old data. It's a snapshot of the past, not a price tag for today. The average assessed value in Alice Brown sits at $1,239,679. But the average HonestDoor Price - which updates in real time using actual market signals - is $1,219,723. That's 1.61% lower than what the city says your home is worth.
That gap is the difference between pricing your home confidently and pricing it based on a number that no longer reflects reality. The HonestDoor Price has also moved down 4.88% from the previous period. That's the market talking. Your assessment hasn't caught up yet.
Think of the HonestDoor Price as your real-world check. It's what a buyer is likely thinking when they walk through your door - not what a government spreadsheet calculated last fall.
Here's the honest take. If you're thinking about selling this summer, you're working with a few realities:
If you need to sell, price it sharp and price it based on today's HonestDoor Price. Buyers in a slow market have options and they know it. If you can wait, the rental numbers suggest holding the property generates real income while you watch the market find its footing.
Bottom line - Alice Brown is a solid neighbourhood in a market that's pausing. Know your real number, not your assessed number, and make your move from there.
