If you've been glancing at "For Sale" signs on your block and wondering what's actually going on with prices in Highland Park, here's the straight answer: the market is holding up better than the city's paperwork suggests. The numbers are worth paying attention to right now.
We're seeing real momentum on the house side. Seven homes sold last month - that's up 40% from the month before. Our average sale price sits at $1,137,814, and homes are moving in 23 days on average. For context, our neighbours in Greenview are sitting at 33 days. That gap matters. Faster sales mean less negotiating room for buyers and more leverage for sellers.
The predicted value is climbing. That 1.37% recent price change is modest, but the direction is right. For anyone holding a house in Highland Park, this is not a market that's falling apart.
Let's be honest - the condo side is taking a breather. Only 2 units sold last month, values have dipped 4.77% recently, and the growth rank sits at 202 out of 216 Calgary neighbourhoods. That puts us near the bottom of the leaderboard for condo growth right now. The average sale price came in at $234,500, and properties sold at 94.50% of list - meaning buyers are negotiating harder here.
The silver lining? Condos here still sell faster than Greenview (28 days vs. 33 days). And at $468,218 predicted value, they're priced above nearby Greenview Industrial Park condos at $431,356. Affordable entry point, but not a growth story at the moment.
Here's the thing about your city tax assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. The city assessed the average Highland Park house at $706,374. The average HonestDoor Price right now is $721,076. That's a $14,702 gap, and it's 2.08% higher than the city's figure. For condos, the gap is even wider - assessed at $442,352, but the HonestDoor Price is $470,542. That's 6.37% more than what the city has on file.
Why does this matter to us? Because if you're making any decision - refinancing, selling, even just figuring out if your insurance coverage makes sense - you want the real-world number, not a government figure that was locked in months ago. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time. Your assessment does not. One of those numbers reflects what a buyer would actually pay today. Use that one.
For house owners, the timing is genuinely decent. Inventory is moving fast, the sale-to-list ratio is nearly 100%, and predicted values are trending upward. You're not leaving money on the table by listing this summer - but you're also not in a frenzy market where you can price recklessly. Price it right and you'll likely be under contract in under a month.
For condo owners, patience is the play. With values down 4.77% recently and a growth rank near the bottom of the city leaderboard, this is not the ideal moment to rush a listing. If you need to sell, price aggressively and lean on the fact that Highland Park condos still move faster than some nearby areas. If you can wait, watch the 3-month trend - the predicted value at $468,218 needs to stabilize before the story improves.
Either way, pull your HonestDoor Price before you have any conversation with an agent. It's the most current read on what your place is actually worth - and in a market like this, knowing your real number is the first move that matters.
