Country Hills, Calgary - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Country Hills, Calgary: Your Neighbour Just Asked If Now Is a Good Time to Sell. Here Is the Real Answer.

If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs on your street and wondering what is actually going on with prices in Country Hills, here is the straight talk. The market is moving in two very different directions depending on whether you own a house or a condo - and the gap between what the city thinks your home is worth and what a buyer will actually pay is wider than most people realize.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Country Hills

Houses - Prices Are Up, But Read the Fine Print

We saw 9 houses sell in Country Hills recently - that is up 50% from the month before, which sounds exciting. And the average sale price of $586,111 is up 15.4% from last month. But before we pop the champagne, here is the nuance: homes are sitting on the market for an average of 57 days, and buyers are paying about 97.74% of the asking price. That means sellers are still trimming their price to get the deal done.

• Average sale price: $586,111
• Average listing price: $443,267
• Price per square foot: $397
• Average days on market: 57
• Sale-to-list ratio: 97.74%
• Predicted market value: $584,070
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,850
• Rental yield: 5.47%
• Growth rank: 151 out of 233 Calgary neighbourhoods

That 5.47% rental yield is genuinely strong for Calgary. If you are an investor sitting on a Country Hills house, the numbers actually work in your favour right now. And our sale price of $586,111 beats nearby Sandstone Valley's recent sold price of $495,000 - so we are holding our own against the neighbours.

Condos - Fast Sales, But Prices Are Cooling Off

The condo story is a bit of a mixed bag, and we should be honest about it. Only 3 condos sold last month - down 25% - and the average sale price dropped to $323,333, which is down 19.2% from the month before. Prices are sliding. That said, condos are moving fast: just 15 days on market on average. We are actually outselling both Beddington Heights (20 days) and Sandstone Valley (18 days) on speed. Buyers who want in are not wasting time.

• Average sale price: $323,333
• Average listing price: $349,900
• Price per square foot: $351
• Average days on market: 15
• Sale-to-list ratio: 97.17%
• Predicted market value: $347,616
• Estimated monthly rent: $1,832
• Rental yield: 4.11%
• Days-on-market rank: 13 out of 71 Calgary neighbourhoods (very fast)

The condo market is taking a breather on price, but the speed of sales tells us demand has not disappeared. Buyers are just being pickier about what they pay.

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

Here is something most Country Hills homeowners do not realize. The city assessed the average house here at $603,411. But the average HonestDoor Price - which pulls from real-time sales data, not a once-a-year government snapshot - sits at $577,426. That is a gap of over $25,000. For condos, the gap is even bigger: the city says $387,479, but the HonestDoor Price says $342,535. That is a $44,944 difference.

Why does this matter to your wallet? Because if you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, buying out a partner, or just figuring out your net worth - using the city's assessment is like navigating with last year's map. The HonestDoor Price is the real-world check. It reflects what buyers are actually paying on your street right now, not what a government formula calculated months ago.

Both the house and condo HonestDoor Prices have dipped slightly - down 1.14% and 1.46% respectively from the previous period. That is not a crash. But it is a signal worth paying attention to before you make a move.

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

If you own a house in Country Hills and are thinking about listing this summer, the window is open - but it is not wide open. Prices are above $580,000 on average and the predicted market value of $584,070 is trending above the 3-month average of $578,280, which is a good sign. The catch is that 57-day average on market. You need to price it right from day one, not start high and chase the market down. Buyers here are paying below list price, and they know it.

If you own a condo, the honest advice is to watch the next 60 days closely. Prices dropped sharply last month and the HonestDoor Price has been sliding. The fast sales pace is encouraging, but selling into a falling price trend is a risk. If you need to sell, move soon. If you can wait, watch what the next round of sales looks like.

On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Country Hills houses rank 151 out of 233 Calgary neighbourhoods for growth - below average, but not at the bottom. Nearby Sandstone Valley is growing slightly faster at 0.04% year over year versus our 0.03%. It is not a dramatic difference, but it is worth knowing if you are comparing options across the north end of the city.

• Best case for house sellers: Price sharp, list before August, and expect a deal close to but slightly under your asking price.
• Best case for condo sellers: Act sooner rather than later given the recent price softness.
• Best case for investors: That 5.47% rental yield on houses is one of the stronger numbers we are seeing across comparable Calgary neighbourhoods right now.

Bottom line - Country Hills is not a market that is running away from you, but it is also not standing still. Check your HonestDoor Price before you make any decisions. It is the most current number you have got.
