Jackson Heights, Edmonton - October 2026 Real Estate Report
Jackson Heights, Edmonton: Real Talk for Your Home in 2026
If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs on your block and wondering what's actually going on, here's the straight story. Jackson Heights is holding its own, but the market is sending some mixed signals depending on whether you own a house or a condo. Let's break it down.
The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Jackson Heights
Houses - Taking a Breather
If we're being honest, the house market here is cooling off. The average sale price this month sits at $404,375, which is down 16.6% from last month. That's a number worth paying attention to. Only 4 houses sold, and listings are sitting at an average of $465,000 - meaning there's a gap between what sellers want and what buyers are paying. Homes are moving in about 26 days on average, which is actually pretty decent for Edmonton, ranking 25th out of 116 neighbourhoods for speed. So houses aren't stuck - they're just selling for less than expected.
- Average sale price: $404,375
- Average list price: $465,000
- Sale-to-list ratio: 99.14% - buyers are negotiating below ask
- Price per square foot: $320
- Average days on market: 26
- Properties sold this month: 4
- Predicted market value: $495,011
- Rental yield: 5.64% - that's a strong return if you're thinking landlord
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Jackson Heights houses rank 209 out of 285 for growth. That puts us in the below-average tier right now. The 3-month moving average is sliding from $501,484 down to $495,011. The market is taking a breather - not crashing, but definitely not sprinting either.
Condos - Stable but Slow
The condo side of our neighbourhood tells a different story. Prices are essentially flat, which sounds boring but is actually a sign of stability. The average sale price is $272,550, and listings are sitting at $274,900 - that's a tight gap, meaning condo sellers are pricing realistically. The catch? One condo sold this month, and it sat on the market for 154 days. That is slow. Edmonton-wide, we rank 93rd out of 113 neighbourhoods for condo selling speed. If you own a condo here and need to move it, patience is not optional - it's required.
- Average sale price: $272,550
- Average list price: $274,900
- Sale-to-list ratio: 99.15%
- Price per square foot: $205
- Average days on market: 154
- Properties sold this month: 1
- Predicted market value: $298,261
- Rental yield: 4.20% - moderate, but still positive
On the condo leaderboard, Jackson Heights ranks 120 out of 297 for growth - that puts us above average across Edmonton. And for condo pricing, we rank 78th out of 218 neighbourhoods. So while sales are slow, the value is holding up better than most people realize.
The Secret Sauce: Your HonestDoor Price vs. Your Tax Assessment
Here's something most neighbours don't know. The city's assessed value on your property is a snapshot from the past. It doesn't react to what happened last month or even last quarter. Your HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual market activity right now.
For houses in Jackson Heights, the average assessed value is $485,955. The average HonestDoor Price is $492,744. That's a $6,789 difference - and it's the number that actually reflects today's market, not last year's data. If you're a house owner, your home is worth more than the city thinks right now.
For condos, the story flips. The average assessed value is $316,697, but the HonestDoor Price is $310,065. The city is overvaluing condos here by roughly $6,600. If you're paying property tax based on that assessed value, that gap matters to your wallet.
Check your HonestDoor Price before your next tax assessment lands. It's the real-world check that the city's static number simply cannot give you.
The "So What?" - Thinking About Selling This Summer?
If you own a house in Jackson Heights and you're thinking about listing this summer, here's the honest take. The market is soft right now. Buyers are paying below list price, the 3-month trend is declining, and growth ranks 209 out of 285 neighbourhoods in Edmonton. That doesn't mean you can't sell - 48 transactions happened here in 2026 already. It means you need to price sharp from day one. Overpriced listings are sitting. Realistically priced homes are moving in about 26 days.
If you own a condo and want to sell this summer, set your expectations early. One sale per month and 154 days on market is the current reality. Price it right, be patient, and know that your condo's HonestDoor Price of $310,065 is your most accurate anchor - not the city's inflated $316,697 assessment.
One more thing worth knowing - Jackson Heights house prices are still running ahead of nearby Kiniski Gardens, where houses sold at $345,000 on average. And condo prices here beat both Kiniski Gardens and Minchau by a wide margin. We're not the cheapest option in the area, and that's not a bad thing.
- Neighbourhood growth year over year (houses): 0.05%
- Neighbourhood growth year over year (condos): 0.13%
- Total house transactions in 2026: 48
- Total condo transactions in 2026: 13
- Average rental estimate (house): $2,489 per month
- Average rental estimate (condo): $1,662 per month
Bottom line - Jackson Heights is a solid, established neighbourhood that's holding value better than the raw sales numbers suggest. Know your HonestDoor Price, price your listing honestly, and you'll be in a much stronger position than most sellers heading into summer.
