If you live on a quiet Buttonville street and you've been wondering whether the market is still working in your favour, here's the honest answer: it depends on what you own. Houses and condos are telling two very different stories right now, and knowing which one applies to you could change how you think about the next 90 days.
Let's start with the good news for house owners. The one house that sold here recently went for $1,830,000 - and it sold at 107.71% of the asking price. That means the buyer paid above list. That is not a soft market. That is a seller sitting at the table with all the chips.
Properties are moving in an average of 14 days, which is fast. If you price it right, you are not waiting around. The average listing price is sitting at $1,699,000 this month, and the price per square foot is around $563.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Buttonville houses rank 4th out of 14 comparable Markham neighbourhoods for growth. That puts us solidly in the top tier - not the flashiest name on the list, but consistently punching above our weight. For context, Richmond Hill Doncrest is the pricier neighbour to the north at $2,221,831, while Markham Hagerman and Milliken West come in cheaper. We sit in a strong middle ground.
Condo owners, here is where we get real with you. The predicted market value for a Buttonville condo is $737,142, and that number is nudging slightly downward against the 3-month moving average of $737,967. It is not a freefall - it is a small dip. But it is worth paying attention to.
The HonestDoor Price for condos is $756,543, which is actually up 2.63% from the previous period. That is a meaningful jump. And here is the stat that stands out: Buttonville condos rank 1st in Markham for Airbnb potential, and 2nd out of 14 neighbourhoods for growth. That is a top-performer badge.
Every nearby condo neighbourhood - Milliken West, Markham Hagerman, and Richmond Hill Doncrest - is priced lower than us. Buttonville condos are the premium option in this comparison set. If you own one, that positioning matters.
Here is something most homeowners do not think about until it is too late. Your city assessment is a snapshot from the past. It does not know that a house on your street just sold at 107.71% of asking. It does not know that condo values here just moved up 2.63%. It is working with old data, and in a market that shifts month to month, old data costs you money.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It is pulling from actual sales, current listing activity, and live market signals - not a government formula that gets refreshed every few years. For a house owner in Buttonville, the HonestDoor Price is sitting at $1,701,430. For a condo owner, it is $756,543. Those are the numbers that reflect what is actually happening on your street right now - not what was happening two or three years ago when your assessment was last calculated.
If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just understanding your net worth - use the HonestDoor Price as your real-world check. It is the number that actually reflects today.
If you own a house in Buttonville and you have been sitting on the fence, the data is nudging you to act. Buyers are paying over asking. Properties are gone in two weeks. The predicted value is trending upward. Summer inventory tends to rise, which means more competition for sellers. Getting ahead of that wave makes sense.
If you own a condo, the picture is a little more nuanced. Values are holding, growth is strong relative to the rest of Markham, and the rental and Airbnb numbers are genuinely attractive for an investor buyer. But the predicted value is softening slightly against the recent average. If your plan is to sell, pricing it sharp and marketing the income potential - $3,394 a month in estimated rent, ranked first in Markham for Airbnb - is the move.
Either way, the first step is knowing what your place is actually worth today. Check your HonestDoor Price at honestdoor.com. It takes about 30 seconds, and it will give you a much clearer picture than whatever number is sitting on your last property tax bill.
