If you own a home in Highfield and you haven't checked your property value lately, now is the time to pay attention. The numbers are moving, and not all of them are moving in the direction you'd hope. Here is the real talk on what is happening right now.
Let's break down what we are actually dealing with here, because houses and condos are telling two very different stories right now.
Our houses are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $1,020,505. That sounds solid until you see it has dipped 1.42% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $1,035,217, but that number is sliding - it is down from a 3-month moving average of $1,061,471. That is a gap worth noticing.
That growth rank is the number we need to talk about. On the Calgary neighbourhood leaderboard for house price growth, Highfield sits at 198 out of 221. That puts us near the bottom of the pack right now. The market is taking a breather here, and the data is not hiding it.
On the bright side, if you are a landlord or thinking about becoming one, a 4.95% rental yield is a decent return. Renting out at an estimated $4,107 per month keeps this asset working for you while you wait for conditions to shift.
Condos are a mixed bag. The average HonestDoor Price is $389,944, and here is the one piece of good news - that is actually up 1.97% from the previous period. But the predicted market value tells a more cautious story at $382,422, down from a 3-month moving average of $403,093. Recent price change sits at -4.38%.
On the condo leaderboard, we rank 184 out of 207 Calgary neighbourhoods. Again, bottom tier for growth. We do edge out nearby Manchester Industrial ($365,947) and Alyth Bonnybrook ($376,218) on predicted value, so there is a relative advantage - but the trend line is something every condo owner here should be watching closely.
Here is the thing about your city tax assessment - it is a snapshot from months ago, sometimes longer. It does not know that Highfield house values have dropped 1.84% recently. It does not know the 3-month moving average has slid from $1,061,471 down toward $1,035,217. It is basically a photo of a market that has already moved on.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It pulls in current sales data and market signals to give you a live number - not a number the city locked in before the market started shifting. If you are making any decision about your property right now - whether to sell, refinance, or even just understand what you actually own - the HonestDoor Price is the number that reflects today, not last year.
With houses down 1.42% and condos showing a -4.38% recent change, the gap between your assessment and your real-world value could be significant. That gap has real consequences for your decisions.
If selling is on your mind, here is the honest take.
For house owners, the window is not closing, but it is not wide open either. Values are softening and the growth rank of 198 out of 221 tells you this neighbourhood is not leading the charge right now. Nearby Parkhill is sitting at a higher price point ($1,158,457 average HonestDoor Price) with some growth, which means buyers have options close by. If you are serious about selling this summer, pricing sharp and getting ahead of further softening is the smarter play than waiting it out.
For condo owners, the -4.38% recent change is the number that should get your attention. The 3-month moving average of $403,093 is already above the current predicted value of $382,422. That spread suggests the market has already repriced. Sitting on the fence and hoping for a bounce while the leaderboard has us at 184 out of 207 is a risky strategy.
The rental numbers do offer a real alternative. A house renting at $4,107 per month with a 4.95% yield, or a condo at $2,047 with a 4.06% yield, means holding and renting is a legitimate option if selling feels like the wrong timing for you personally.
Bottom line - check your HonestDoor Price today. Know your real number. Then decide.
