Allard, Edmonton - October 2026 Real Estate Report
Allard, Edmonton: Your Home Is Probably Worth Less Than The City Thinks
If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs in Allard lately, here is what is actually happening. The market is taking a breather. Prices are sliding, homes are sitting a little longer, and the city's assessment number on your tax notice? It is running ahead of reality right now. Here is the straight story.
The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Allard
Houses - Active But Softening
We saw 18 houses sell in Allard this period, which is actually up 12.5% from last month - so buyers are still showing up. But the average sale price dropped to $584,191, down 6.4% from the month before. That is a meaningful dip. Homes are sitting on the market for an average of 26 days, which is slower than our neighbour Callaghan at 20 days. Buyers are taking their time, and they are getting deals - the average home sold for 98.13% of list price, meaning sellers are giving a little ground.
- Average sale price: $584,191 (down 6.4% from last month)
- Average list price this month: $494,000
- Price per square foot: $367
- Average days on market: 26
- Sale-to-list ratio: 98.13%
- Properties sold this period: 18
- Predicted market value: $573,109
- Rental yield: 5.49%

On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Allard houses rank 159 out of 285 Edmonton neighbourhoods for growth - that puts us in the below-average tier right now. Price rank is stronger at 73 out of 285, meaning we are still an above-average priced area. Days-on-market rank sits at 25 out of 116, which is actually a decent sign - homes here move faster than most of the city, even if they are slower than Callaghan next door.
Condos - Thin Market, Big Price Gap
The condo picture in Allard is a different story, and honestly, it is the one that needs the most attention. Only 1 condo sold this period. One. That is not enough volume to call it a trend, but the signals are worth noting. The average sale price recorded was $695,000, down 2.4% from last month, with homes sitting on the market for 35 days. That is longer than Callaghan's 20-day average.
- Average sale price: $695,000 (down 2.4% from last month)
- Average list price this month: $709,900
- Price per square foot: $816
- Average days on market: 35
- Sale-to-list ratio: 97.90%
- Properties sold this period: 1
- Predicted market value: $197,887
- Rental yield: 4.30%
- Estimated monthly rent: $1,068
On the leaderboard, Allard condos rank 6 out of 218 Edmonton neighbourhoods for price - that is top tier. But growth ranks 210 out of 297, which is below average. High price, slow growth is a combination worth watching if you own a condo here.
The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Assessment Right Now
Here is the thing about your city assessment. It is a snapshot from months ago, built on formulas that do not adjust in real time. Right now in Allard, that gap between what the city thinks your home is worth and what the market is actually doing is significant.
For houses, the city's average assessed value is $586,212. The HonestDoor Price - which pulls from real, current market activity - sits at $572,270. That is a $13,942 gap, and the HonestDoor Price has already dipped 0.15% from the previous period. The city's number has not caught up to that slide yet.
For condos, the gap is even wider. The average assessed value is $254,463. The HonestDoor Price is $192,490 - a difference of over $61,000, and 24.35% below the assessed value. If you are a condo owner in Allard, your tax assessment is working against you. The HonestDoor Price is the real-world check that shows what a buyer would actually pay today, not what a government formula calculated last year.
With 1,966 houses and 570 condos assessed in Allard this year, and 102 total property transactions recorded in 2026, there is enough data here to get a sharp, current read on your home's value. Do not wait for the next assessment cycle to find out where you actually stand.
The "So What?" - Thinking About Selling This Summer?
If you are a house owner in Allard and thinking about listing this summer, the window is open but it is not wide. Prices are down 6.4% month over month, buyers are negotiating below list price, and your home will likely sit for about 26 days. That is not a disaster - 18 homes sold, and demand is there. But pricing it right from day one is everything. Overpricing in a softening market means chasing the price down, which is the worst position to be in.
For condo owners, the honest advice is to watch the next 60 days closely. One sale is not a market. The predicted value of $197,887 is already trending below the 3-month moving average of $202,366, and growth ranks in the bottom third of Edmonton neighbourhoods. If you are thinking about selling, sooner is likely better than later while prices are still relatively high on the leaderboard.
For anyone thinking about holding and renting, the house rental yield of 5.49% is genuinely strong. At an estimated $2,785 per month in rent, Allard houses are pulling solid returns compared to most Edmonton neighbourhoods. That is a real reason to hold if selling feels premature.
Bottom line - check your HonestDoor Price before you make any move. It is the number that reflects today, not last year.
