If you live on April Road and you have not looked at your HonestDoor Price lately, this is your nudge. The city's assessment is already out of date. The real numbers are more interesting - and more useful - than what BC Assessment sent you in January.
April Road sits at the top of the Port Moody price leaderboard. That is not a small thing. Here is how houses and condos are each telling a different story right now.
If you own a house on April Road, you are sitting on one of the priciest streets in the city. The average sale price hit $2,550,000 recently, and price per square foot is running around $891. The HonestDoor Price for houses here is sitting at $2,224,951 - and that number is drifting slightly below the 3-month moving average of $2,236,042, so the market is taking a breather.
One house sold in the most recent period, which is consistent with how this street moves - slowly, selectively, and at high price points. We are not a high-volume street. We are a high-value one.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses here rank 9th out of 16 for growth. That puts us in the lower half for momentum right now. Nearby Pleasantside and Twin Creeks are also slowing down, so this is not an April Road problem alone - it is a broader Port Moody houses story.
Condos on April Road are showing a split signal. The HonestDoor Price jumped 4.22% from the previous period to $557,033 - that is a solid move. But the predicted market value right now is $534,467, which is running below the 3-month moving average of $560,311. Short-term, values have dropped 7.46%.
That growth rank is worth paying attention to. Last place out of 15 comparable neighbourhoods is a signal that condo momentum here has stalled. The good news is that April Road condos are still priced above nearby Ioco ($478,617 predicted value), so the relative value holds up. But if you own a condo here, now is not the time to assume the market is doing the work for you.
Here is the thing about BC Assessment. That number was calculated using data from July 1st of the previous year. It is a snapshot of a market that no longer exists. The average assessed value on April Road is $2,095,087 for houses. The HonestDoor Price is $2,192,328 - that is $97,241 higher, and it updates in real time.
That 4.64% gap between the assessment and the HonestDoor Price is not a rounding error. It is the difference between what the government thinks your home is worth and what the market actually reflects today. If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, or just benchmarking your net worth - the HonestDoor Price is the number to use.
April Road also holds the number 1 Airbnb rank in all of Port Moody for houses. That is a real-world signal about desirability that no government assessment captures.
If you own a house on April Road and you have been thinking about listing, here is the honest read. You are on the most expensive street in Port Moody. That is a strong position. But the market is softening slightly - values are down 0.56% recently and the growth rank sits in the bottom half of the city. Waiting for prices to climb back up is a gamble right now.
Summer inventory in Port Moody tends to rise, which means more competition for sellers. If your plan is to sell in 2025 or early 2026, getting ahead of that inventory wave makes sense. Two transactions happened on April Road in 2026 across all property types - this is a low-volume street, which means when a well-priced home hits the market, it stands out.
For condo owners, the picture is more cautious. A 7.46% recent drop and a last-place growth ranking suggest waiting for a clearer recovery signal before listing. If you need to sell, price it sharp. If you can hold, watch the 3-month moving average - when it starts climbing back toward $560,000, that is your green light.
Either way, pull your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It is the real-world check that tells you where you actually stand - not where you stood eight months ago.
