If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Heritage Hills lately, here's what's actually happening. Prices are taking a breather. Sales are slower. But the neighbourhood is still sitting near the top of the Sherwood Park leaderboard - and that matters a lot if you're thinking about your next move.
Let's break it down for us locals.
Houses are the headline story right now, and it's a mixed one. The average sale price sits at $686,433 - down 5.5% from last month. Only 9 homes sold, which is 18.2% fewer than the month before. Homes are sitting on the market for an average of 34 days, and buyers are paying about 98.86% of the asking price. That means if you list at $700,000, expect offers closer to $692,000. The market is cooling, no question about it.
Condos are a quieter story but a steadier one. The HonestDoor Price for condos averages $669,775, down a more modest 2.94%. The predicted market value is $690,050, which is trending up against the 3-month moving average of $674,058. Rental income potential sits at $2,910 per month with a 3.59% yield - solid, not spectacular. On the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, Heritage Hills condos rank 10th out of 37 comparable Sherwood Park neighbourhoods. That's a top-27% finish. We'll take it.
Here's the thing most Heritage Hills homeowners don't realize. Your city assessment is a snapshot from the past - often six to twelve months old by the time it lands in your mailbox. It does not reflect what a buyer would actually pay for your home today.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. Right now, it's telling us that the average house in Heritage Hills is priced at $707,815 - and the predicted market value for houses is $740,499, which is climbing above the 3-month moving average of $718,855. That gap between your old assessment and your HonestDoor Price is where real money lives. If your assessment says one thing and the HonestDoor Price says another, the HonestDoor number is the one that reflects what's actually happening on the street right now.
Compare that to nearby neighbourhoods and the picture gets even clearer. Clarkdale Meadows houses are averaging $587,398. Lakeland Greens sits at $546,419. Even Craigavon, the closest competitor, comes in at $662,949. Heritage Hills is running $45,000 to $160,000 ahead of its neighbours. That premium is real, and your old assessment almost certainly doesn't capture it accurately.
Straight talk: this is not a seller's market the way it was 18 months ago. Prices are down, fewer homes are selling, and buyers have more leverage than they did. But Heritage Hills is not struggling - it's just normalizing from a hot run.
Here's why summer 2026 still makes sense if you're thinking about selling:
The bottom line: price it sharp, use your HonestDoor Price as your anchor - not your old assessment - and you are still selling from a position of strength. Heritage Hills is not cheap relative to its neighbours, and buyers know it. Give them a reason to move fast.
