Johnson Heights, Surrey - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Johnson Heights, Surrey: What Your Home Is Actually Worth Right Now

If you've been glancing at your latest tax assessment and wondering if it tells the whole story - it doesn't. Here's the real picture for Johnson Heights homeowners in 2026.

The Vibe: Where Johnson Heights Stands Today

Our neighbourhood sits in a steady, if cautious, spot right now. The market isn't running hot, but it isn't falling apart either. With 3,951 houses and 2,495 condos assessed this year, Johnson Heights is a well-established part of Surrey's housing mix. Year-over-year growth dipped a modest 0.07% for houses and 0.04% for condos - call it a breather, not a crash.

On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses rank 25 out of 41 Surrey neighbourhoods for growth - below average, but not at the bottom. Condos actually do better, ranking 17 out of 42 for growth, which puts us in above-average territory. For price, houses rank 19 out of 45 and condos rank 8 out of 26 - both above average. That means we're holding value even if we're not leading the growth race right now.

Houses: The Numbers That Matter

• Average HonestDoor Price: $1,268,460
• Average Assessed Value: $1,242,821
• HonestDoor Price is 2.06% above the assessed value
• Predicted Market Value: $1,266,103 - up from the 3-month moving average of $1,261,150
• Recent value change: 0.42%
• Average sale price in 2026: $980,000 at roughly $737 per square foot
• Transactions in 2026: 8 total, with 1 sale last month
• Estimated monthly rent: $4,891 with a rental yield of 4.38%
• Airbnb potential: $243 per night (ranked 37th in Surrey)

One thing worth flagging - the average sale price of $980,000 sits below the HonestDoor Price of $1,268,460. With only 1 sale last month and 8 total in 2026, the sample is thin. A single lower-priced transaction can drag that average down fast. The HonestDoor Price, built from a much broader data set, gives a more reliable read on what your house is actually worth.

Condos: Holding Steady and Growing Faster Than You Think

• Average HonestDoor Price: $509,629
• Average Assessed Value: $523,086
• HonestDoor Price is 2.57% below the assessed value
• Predicted Market Value: $512,805 - up from the 3-month moving average of $505,580
• Recent value change: 1.28%
• Average sale price in 2026: $534,444 at roughly $567 per square foot
• Transactions in 2026: 5 total, with 2 sales last month
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,539 with a rental yield of 3.82%
• Airbnb potential: $126 per night (ranked 40th in Surrey)

Condo owners, here's something to pay attention to - your HonestDoor Price is actually running below your assessed value right now. That 1.28% recent growth and a rising 3-month trend suggest momentum is building, but the assessed value may be overstating what the market will currently pay. Worth knowing before you price anything.

How We Stack Up Against the Neighbours

Looking at what's happening on our borders gives useful context. For houses, East Newton North ($1,503,389) and Whalley ($1,481,449) are both pricier and growing slightly faster. Fleetwood ($1,203,122) is cheaper but also growing faster. For condos, East Newton North ($761,045) and Fleetwood ($616,905) are both more expensive. Whalley ($472,835) comes in cheaper for condos. Johnson Heights sits in a solid middle ground - not the cheapest, not the priciest, and holding its own.

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Is the Number to Watch

Your BC Assessment is a snapshot frozen in time - it reflects market conditions from July 1st of the prior year. A lot can shift in 12 to 18 months. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using current sales data, market trends, and neighbourhood-level signals. For houses in Johnson Heights, that difference is already $25,639 in your favour - the HonestDoor Price runs 2.06% above the assessed value. For condos, it's the opposite story - the HonestDoor Price is 2.57% below assessment, which means the city's number may be giving condo owners a false sense of what buyers will actually pay today.

Bottom line: if you're making any financial decision based on your home's value - refinancing, selling, or just benchmarking your net worth - use the HonestDoor Price as your real-world check, not the government's year-old estimate.

The So What - Thinking About Selling This Summer?

Here's the honest take for Johnson Heights sellers heading into summer 2026. The market is quiet - 8 house transactions and 5 condo transactions all year tells you buyer activity is low. That doesn't mean you can't sell, but it does mean pricing sharp matters more than ever. With only 1 house selling last month, you won't have a lot of comparable sales to lean on when setting your price.

For house sellers, the predicted market value of $1,266,103 is trending upward from the 3-month average - a small but real positive signal. For condo sellers, that 1.28% recent growth is the strongest momentum number in this whole data set, and the predicted value of $512,805 is also climbing. If you're a condo owner thinking about listing, the trend is moving in the right direction.

The play right now is to get your HonestDoor Price, compare it against what's moving in East Newton North and Fleetwood, and price with the current market in mind - not last year's assessment. A well-priced home in a slow market still sells. An overpriced one just sits.
