Brunette Creek, New Westminster - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Brunette Creek Real Estate Update: The House Market Is Quietly Outperforming - But Condos Are a Different Story

The Vibe Right Now

If you own a house in Brunette Creek, you might be sitting on more than you think. If you own a condo, it is time to pay close attention - because the numbers are moving in opposite directions.

Houses: A Sleeper Hit on the New Westminster Leaderboard

Here is the stat that should get every house owner's attention. Brunette Creek houses rank 1 out of 15 comparable neighbourhoods in New Westminster for growth. That is not a typo - we are sitting at the top of the leaderboard right now.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $1,297,573
• Predicted Market Value: $1,321,162
• 3-Month Moving Average: $1,254,355 - and our predicted value is climbing above it
• Recent Property Value Change: up 7.08%
• Average Sale Price: $939,900
• Price Per Square Foot: $641
• Estimated Monthly Rent: $5,057
• Rental Yield: 4.36%

That 7.08% recent value change is the real headline. The predicted market value of $1,321,162 is already running ahead of the 3-month moving average, which tells us momentum is building - not fading. For context, our price rank is 10 out of 14 in New Westminster, meaning we are not the priciest neighbourhood on the block. That gap between our growth rank (1st) and our price rank (10th) is actually a good sign - there is still room to run.

Compared to nearby Sapperton, where houses average $1,450,924, we are still a relative value play. Glenbrooke South sits at $1,274,460 - slightly below us. We are right in the middle of the pack on price, but leading the pack on momentum.

Condos: Taking a Breather

The condo picture in Brunette Creek is more cautious. Values are dipping, and the data backs that up clearly.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $498,450 - down 3.74% from the previous period
• Average Assessed Value: $540,455
• HonestDoor Price is 7.77% below the city average assessed value
• Predicted Market Value: $517,831
• 3-Month Moving Average: $524,512 - and our predicted value is slipping below it
• Recent Property Value Change: -0.08%
• Average Sale Price: $555,000
• Price Per Square Foot: $687
• Estimated Monthly Rent: $2,509
• Rental Yield: 3.80%
• Neighbourhood Growth: down 0.02% year over year
• Growth Rank: 8 out of 15 - below average in New Westminster
• Price Rank: 4 out of 12 - above average in price
• Properties Assessed This Year: 246
• Transactions in 2026: 4

The tricky part for condo owners here is the combination of above-average price rank (4th out of 12) and below-average growth rank (8th out of 15). We are priced relatively high for a segment that is not growing. The predicted value of $517,831 is already trailing the 3-month moving average of $524,512, which means the short-term trend is pointing down. Nearby Glenbrooke South condos are predicted at $609,982 - noticeably higher than us.

That said, a $555,000 average sale price still beats Sapperton condos at $454,746. So we are not in freefall - just taking a breather while the market figures out its next move.

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment Right Now

Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from months ago, based on data that is even older. It does not know about the 7.08% value shift happening in our house market right now. It does not reflect the fact that condo values have dropped 3.74% since the last period.

The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. For house owners, that means the $1,297,573 average already accounts for current market conditions - not last year's. For condo owners, the HonestDoor Price of $498,450 is actually 7.77% below the city's average assessed value, which is a signal worth taking seriously. If you are pricing a condo to sell based on your assessment alone, you could be starting the conversation in the wrong place.

Think of the HonestDoor Price as the real-world check on a number the city handed you without asking what the market is doing today.

So What Does This Mean If You Are Thinking About Selling This Summer?

For house owners in Brunette Creek, the timing is genuinely interesting. We are ranked first in growth out of 15 comparable neighbourhoods, values are trending upward, and the predicted market value is outpacing the 3-month average. If you have been on the fence, this summer is worth a serious conversation with an agent - the momentum is with you right now.

For condo owners, the honest answer is that patience may cost you. Values are slipping, the growth rank is below average, and the predicted value is already trailing recent averages. If selling is on your radar in the next 12 months, moving sooner rather than later is worth considering. Waiting for the market to bounce back is a bet - and right now the data is not making that an easy call.

Either way, pull your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It is the fastest way to see where you actually stand - not where the city thinks you stood last year.
