If you own in Foothills, the market is not moving in one direction - it is moving in two, depending on what you own. Houses and condos are telling completely opposite stories this season, and knowing which story is yours could be worth real money.
Let us be straight with you. The house market in Foothills is cooling off. The average HonestDoor Price for a house sits at $299,569, and that number has slipped 0.41% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average is $304,551, and the current predicted value of $300,809 is sitting below that line. That is the market telling us prices are drifting down, not up.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Foothills houses rank 188 out of 236 Calgary neighbourhoods for growth. That puts us in below-average territory. It is not a freefall, but it is not a climb either.
The silver lining? If you are a landlord or thinking about becoming one, houses here still pull an estimated $1,512 per month in rent, with a rental yield of 5.87%. That is a strong return. The property is not sprinting in value right now, but it is working for you every single month.
Here is the part most people in Foothills are sleeping on. Condos are actually moving in the right direction. The predicted market value is $73,753, up from a 3-month moving average of $72,800. Recent price change is sitting at a positive 5.95%. That is real momentum.
On the leaderboard, Foothills condos rank 15 out of 216 Calgary neighbourhoods for growth. Top 15. That is not a typo. While the house side of the street is grinding, condo owners here are quietly sitting in elite company across the city.
Yes, the average HonestDoor Price of $69,306 is a lower price point, and the 6.03% dip in the previous period shows these units can swing. But the current trajectory is pointing up, and a rental yield of 4.36% with $405 per month in estimated rent means these units are not just sitting there.
Your city assessment is a snapshot from the past. It is calculated using data that can be six to twelve months old by the time it lands in your mailbox. A lot moves in that window.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time using current sales, market shifts, and neighbourhood-level signals. Right now, that gap matters. House values in Foothills are sliding from their recent peak. If your tax assessment was locked in during a higher period, you could be paying property tax on a number that no longer reflects reality. That is money out of your pocket.
On the condo side, the HonestDoor Price is catching an upswing that your old assessment has not registered yet. If you are thinking about selling, you want the number that reflects today - not last year.
Check your HonestDoor Price now. It is the real-world check that your assessment simply cannot give you.
If you own a house in Foothills and are thinking about listing this summer, do not wait for the market to find its footing on its own. Prices are below the 3-month average and the growth rank is in the bottom third of Calgary. That does not mean you cannot sell well - it means you need to price sharp and move with intention. Buyers have options in this range, and nearby neighbourhoods like Ogden Shops and Valleyfield are priced higher, which can work in your favour if you position Foothills as the value play.
If you own a condo, the timing conversation looks different. You are sitting in a top-15 growth neighbourhood right now. That is a real talking point with buyers. The momentum is on your side heading into summer, and a predicted value of $73,753 is already ahead of the 3-month average. If you have been on the fence, this is the window worth paying attention to.
Either way, start with your HonestDoor Price. Know your real number before you talk to anyone.
