If you own a home in Campbelton and you haven't looked past your city assessment lately, you're probably leaving money on the table. Here's the straight story on what's actually happening in our corner of Campbell River right now.
Let's break it down by property type, because houses and condos are telling two very different stories here.
The house market in Campbelton is about as balanced as it gets. Homes are selling right at list price - that 100% sale-to-list ratio means nobody is getting steamrolled in negotiations. Buyers and sellers are meeting in the middle, which is a healthy sign for all of us.
That 130-day average on market is worth flagging. We rank 8 out of 8 neighbourhoods in Campbell River for days-on-market speed, which means houses here take longer to sell than anywhere else in the city. That's not a disaster - it just means pricing it right from day one matters more here than almost anywhere else in Campbell River.
The good news? On the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, Campbelton houses rank 3 out of 9 in Campbell River. That puts us in above-average territory for value growth - ahead of most of the city. And a 5.53% rental yield is genuinely strong. If you're holding a house here as an investment, the rent math is working in your favour.
Condo numbers in Campbelton are eye-catching. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $1,477,873 - a significant figure that puts these units in a very different league than the house market here.
The condo rental yield of 2.43% is moderate - not as punchy as the house side. But that Airbnb rank of 2 out of 9 in Campbell River tells us short-term rental demand for condos here is among the strongest in the city. If you own a condo in Campbelton and you're not thinking about short-term rental potential, that number is worth a second look.
On the growth leaderboard, condos rank 5 out of 9 - sitting just below average for Campbell River. Values are still ticking upward, just not leading the pack.
Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't update when the market shifts, and it doesn't reflect what a buyer would actually pay for your home today.
For houses in Campbelton, the average assessed value is $503,958. The average HonestDoor Price is $544,298. That's a gap of roughly $40,000 - or 8% higher than what the city has on file. If you're making any financial decision based on your assessment alone - whether that's refinancing, estate planning, or just knowing your net worth - you're working with a number that's already behind the times.
The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual sales data. It's the real-world check on a static government number. For Campbelton homeowners specifically, that $40,000 difference isn't small. That's a renovation budget. That's a down payment on an investment property. Know your actual number.
Here's the honest take if you're weighing a summer sale in Campbelton.
The market here isn't flashy, but it's honest. Campbelton is holding its value, renting well, and sitting in the top half of Campbell River for growth. If you're thinking about your next move, start with your real number - not the one the city mailed you last January.
