Brentwood Real Estate Update: Houses Are Flying Off the Market, But Condos Are a Different Story

If you own a home in Brentwood and you have been wondering whether now is the time to make a move, here is the straight answer: for houses, the market is as hot as it has been in a while. Condos, though? They are taking a breather. Let us break it down.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Brentwood Right Now

Houses - Sellers Are Winning

We are seeing real momentum in the Brentwood house market. The average sale price hit $816,648 this month, up 10.3% from last month. Six houses sold, which is 50% more than the month before. Properties are moving fast - an average of just 16 days on market, which ranks 15th out of 82 comparable Calgary neighbourhoods. That is seriously quick.

The number that really stands out? Buyers are paying 102.14% of the list price. That means homes are selling above asking. If you are a seller, that is the kind of stat that should get your attention. Current listings are averaging $887,500, so there is still room for well-priced homes to attract strong offers.

• Average sale price: $816,648 (up 10.3% from last month)
• Price per square foot: $699
• Average days on market: 16
• Sale-to-list ratio: 102.14% - buyers are paying over asking
• Properties sold this month: 6 (up 50% month over month)
• Rental yield: 5.07% - strong returns for investors
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,605

On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Brentwood houses rank 108 out of 238 Calgary neighbourhoods for growth - putting us in the above-average tier. Not leading the pack, but solidly in the upper half.

Condos - A Buyers' Market With a Long Wait

The condo picture is different. Only 2 condos sold this month, down 50% from last month, and they sat on the market for an average of 98 days. That days-on-market rank is 70 out of 75 - near the bottom for Calgary, meaning our condos are among the slowest-selling in the city right now.

Buyers are also negotiating successfully, with sales closing at 98.64% of list price. Prices are still up 7.3% month over month to $300,250, but the HonestDoor Price for condos has dipped 0.96% recently and sits at $277,050 - which is actually 8.27% below the average assessed value in Calgary. That gap matters, and we will get to why in a moment.

• Average sale price: $300,250 (up 7.3% from last month)
• Price per square foot: $484
• Average days on market: 98
• Sale-to-list ratio: 98.64% - buyers have negotiating room
• Properties sold this month: 2 (down 50% month over month)
• Rental yield: 4.23% - moderate returns
• Estimated monthly rent: $1,507

For context, Brentwood condos are outselling Varsity condos on price - our average sale price of $300,250 beats Varsity's $249,783. So while the pace is slow, the value is holding up relative to neighbours.

The Secret Sauce: Your HonestDoor Price vs. Your Tax Assessment

Here is something most Brentwood homeowners do not realize. Your city assessment is a snapshot taken months ago, based on data that is already old by the time it lands in your mailbox. The market does not wait for the city to catch up.

The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, using actual sales data from your street and streets like it. Right now, the average HonestDoor Price for a Brentwood house is $801,251 - sitting 1.24% above the average assessed value in Calgary. That gap is money. If you are making any financial decision based on your assessment alone - whether it is refinancing, selling, or just knowing what you actually own - you are working with a stale number.

For condo owners, the story flips. The HonestDoor Price of $277,050 is 8.27% below the average Calgary assessed value. If your condo is assessed higher than what the real market says it is worth, that is worth knowing before you price it for sale or challenge your tax bill.

Check your HonestDoor Price now. It is the real-world check that your assessment simply cannot give you.

The "So What?" - Thinking About Selling This Summer?

If you own a house in Brentwood, this summer looks good for you. Buyers are active, inventory is tight, and the 16-day average days on market means well-priced homes are not sitting around. The fact that buyers are paying over asking tells you the demand is real, not just noise. If you have been on the fence, the conditions right now are about as seller-friendly as they get.

If you own a condo, the honest advice is to be patient and price sharp. With 98 days on market being the current average and buyers negotiating below list, you need your condo to stand out on price and condition. The good news is that prices are still ticking up month over month, so the floor is not falling out - it is just a slower climb.

Either way, the first step is knowing your actual number. Pull your HonestDoor Price, compare it to your assessment, and you will have a much clearer picture of where you stand before you call an agent or list anything. That is not a sales pitch - that is just how you walk into any negotiation with the right information.
