If you have been glancing at your latest property assessment and feeling a little underwhelmed, here is the real story. The city's number and what your home would actually sell for right now are two very different figures - and in Altamont, that gap is significant.
Altamont is taking a breather. Values are not in freefall - they are just pausing. Here is how houses and condos are sitting right now.
If you own a house in Altamont, the market is holding steady but not charging forward. Sales activity is quiet - 2 houses sold recently, with an average sale price of $3,012,500 and a price per square foot of around $2,377. That is a lot of value per tile and floorboard.
The predicted market value is dipping slightly below the 3-month moving average, which tells us the momentum has cooled a touch. Nothing alarming - but worth watching if you are timing a sale.
The condo picture in Altamont is interesting. Only 1 condo sold recently at $620,000 - but do not let that transaction price fool you. The HonestDoor Price for condos here sits at $2,443,892, which is a completely different universe from that single sale. The assessed value of $1,373,316 is even further from reality.
Condo growth is lagging compared to neighbours. West Bay, Queens, and Deer Ridge condos are all outpacing Altamont right now. If you own a condo here, that is a number worth paying attention to.
Here is the thing about government assessments - they are a snapshot from the past. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved on.
For houses in Altamont, the HonestDoor Price of $3,442,872 is 14.66% higher than the average assessed value. That is roughly $440,000 sitting on the table that your assessment is not showing you. For condos, the gap is even wider - the HonestDoor Price is 77.96% above the assessed value. That is not a rounding error. That is a real-world check on what buyers are actually willing to pay.
The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using current market signals. Your assessment does not. If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, or just figuring out where you stand - the HonestDoor Price is the number to start with.
Altamont is not a neighbourhood that moves fast - and that is not a bad thing. With only 6 house transactions and 11 condo transactions recorded in 2026 so far, this is a low-volume, high-value market. Fewer sales means each listing gets more attention.
Here is what that means for you if you are considering listing this summer:
Bottom line - Altamont is a premium address in a market that is catching its breath. If you are serious about selling, price it right from day one. Low volume means buyers have options, and an overpriced listing in a quiet market just sits. Know your real number before you list.
