    Kenilworth Real Estate Check-In: Solid Ground, But Watch the Details

    If you own a home in Kenilworth and you haven't looked at your numbers lately, now is a good time to pay attention. The market here is holding up, but it's not a simple story. Houses and condos are moving in different directions, and the gap between what the city thinks your place is worth and what buyers will actually pay is wider than you'd expect.

    The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos

    Let's break it down for us locals.

    Houses: The average sale price for houses in Kenilworth is sitting at $552,833 this month - up 46.2% from last month. Before you get too excited, only 3 properties sold, so that jump is more about which homes crossed the finish line than a sudden surge in demand. Still, sellers are getting 99.03% of their asking price on average, which means buyers aren't lowballing. Homes are spending about 34 days on the market, which is a reasonably quick turnaround. The predicted market value for a Kenilworth house is $467,342, nudging up from the 3-month moving average of $463,281. That's a quiet but steady climb.

    • Average sale price: $552,833
    • Average list price this month: $558,333
    • Price per square foot: $453
    • Sale-to-list ratio: 99.03%
    • Average days on market: 34
    • Predicted market value: $467,342
    • Rental yield: 5.70%
    • Estimated rent: $2,380 per month

    On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Kenilworth houses rank 155 out of 292 for growth in Edmonton - right in the middle of the pack. Days-on-market rank is 32 out of 108, meaning we're selling faster than most. Price rank is 156 out of 285, so we're below average on price compared to the city. There's room to move up.

    Condos: The condo picture is a bit more cautious. The average HonestDoor Price for condos here is $283,541, and it has dipped 1.42% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $287,635, which is actually sliding slightly below the 3-month moving average of $287,695. It's a small move, but it's moving in the wrong direction. Rental yield sits at 4.16% - moderate, not spectacular. Growth ranks 202 out of 302 for condos in Edmonton. That puts us in below-average territory for now.

    • Average HonestDoor Price (condos): $283,541
    • Predicted market value: $287,635
    • Estimated rent: $1,522 per month
    • Rental yield: 4.16%
    • Airbnb estimate: $75 per night
    • Growth rank: 202 out of 302 in Edmonton

    The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment Right Now

    Here's the thing about your city assessment. It's a snapshot from months ago, calculated using broad formulas applied across thousands of properties. It doesn't know your renovated kitchen. It doesn't know what your neighbour's place actually sold for last week.

    The average assessed value for a Kenilworth house is $446,101. The average HonestDoor Price is $464,378. That's a gap of roughly $18,000 - and the HonestDoor Price is 4.10% higher than the city average assessment across Edmonton. That difference is real money. If you're making any decision about selling, refinancing, or even just understanding your net worth, the HonestDoor Price is the real-world check. It updates in real time using actual transaction data, not a government formula that gets refreshed once a year.

    With 977 properties assessed in Kenilworth and 49 transactions recorded in 2026, there's enough activity here to make that number meaningful. This isn't a guess - it's grounded in what's actually happening on our streets.

    The "So What?" - Thinking About Selling This Summer?

    If you're a Kenilworth homeowner eyeing a summer sale, here's the honest read.

    For house sellers, the conditions are decent. Buyers are paying close to asking price, homes aren't sitting forever, and predicted values are creeping up. The neighbourhood is growing at 0.05% year over year - not explosive, but stable. Compare that to nearby Ottewell, where the HonestDoor Price is $491,348 and growth is at 0.04%. Ottewell is a bit pricier but growing slower than us. That's actually a good story to tell a buyer who wants value with upside.

    For condo owners, the summer picture is more complicated. Values are dipping slightly and the growth rank puts us below average in the city. If you're thinking about selling, pricing sharp and moving quickly matters more right now than waiting for a rebound that isn't clearly on the horizon yet.

    Either way, the smartest first move is checking your HonestDoor Price before you call an agent or set a number. The city's assessment is already out of date. Your HonestDoor Price is what the market is actually saying about your home today - and in a market like this, that difference can change your whole strategy.

    • Neighbourhood overall growth: 0.05% year over year
    • Total transactions in 2026: 49
    • Transaction rank in Edmonton: 38 - meaning Kenilworth is one of the more active neighbourhoods in the city
    • HonestDoor Price vs. assessed value gap: approximately $18,277 in favour of homeowners
    • Airbnb rank in Edmonton (houses): 259

    Bottom line - Kenilworth is a steady, active neighbourhood with real buyer interest. Know your number before you make a move.
