If you live on Blair Road and you're still going off your last city assessment, you might be leaving money on the table - or overpricing yourself right out of a sale. Here's the real picture, straight up.
Let's break down what's happening for us here in Blair Road, because houses and condos are telling two different stories right now.
Houses: The average HonestDoor Price sits at $842,204, down about 1.80% from the last period. The more forward-looking predicted market value comes in at $857,677, which is actually slipping slightly below the 3-month moving average of $860,210. So yes, house values are taking a breather. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Blair Road houses rank 11 out of 14 comparable Cambridge neighbourhoods for growth. That's a below-average position, and it's worth knowing.
Condos: This is where things get a bit more interesting for us. The average HonestDoor Price for condos is $645,513, down 2.07%. But the predicted market value of $659,142 is actually climbing above the 3-month moving average of $651,146. That's a small but real sign of short-term momentum. Condos rank 8 out of 14 in Cambridge for growth - still below average, but holding up better than the houses side of the street.
One more thing worth noting - Blair Road holds its own against nearby neighbourhoods. Southwood, Preston Centre, and East Galt all come in cheaper across both houses and condos. If you own here, you're sitting at the top of that local comparison.
Here's the thing about city assessments - they're a snapshot from the past. They don't move when the market moves. Your property could have shifted in value by tens of thousands of dollars since your last assessment, and the city's number won't reflect that until they get around to updating it.
The HonestDoor Price is a real-world check. It pulls from current market data and updates regularly, so when values dip 1.80% on houses or tick up 1.03% on condos, you see it now - not two years from now. For Blair Road homeowners, that gap between the static government number and the live HonestDoor Price could be the difference between pricing your home right and watching it sit on the market.
If you haven't looked up your HonestDoor Price lately, now is the time. Not next spring. Now.
Here's the honest take for anyone considering a summer sale on Blair Road.
The house market is softening. Values are down slightly and the growth rank of 11 out of 14 tells you this isn't a neighbourhood leading the Cambridge charge right now. That doesn't mean you can't sell well - it means you need to price sharp and not anchor to an outdated number. A home listed at the right price in a cooling market still sells. One that's overpriced just sits.
On the condo side, there's a bit more life. That +1.03% recent uptick and a predicted value climbing above the moving average suggests some buyers are still active. If you own a condo here and you've been on the fence, this window is worth a serious look before the fall market resets.
Either way, Blair Road is still priced above Southwood, Preston Centre, and East Galt. That's a real selling point. Use it. Lead with it. And make sure the number you're working from is a live HonestDoor Price - not a government assessment that hasn't caught up with 2024.
