Kirkland, Montreal - August 2026 Real Estate Report

Kirkland Real Estate Check-In: Steady Houses, Slipping Condos

If you live in Kirkland and you haven't looked at your home's value lately, now is a good time to pay attention. The market here is sending two very different signals depending on what you own - and the gap between your city assessment and what your home is actually worth right now might surprise you.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos

Let's break it down for us locals, because houses and condos are telling completely different stories right now.

Houses: If you own a house in Kirkland, things are holding up. The predicted market value sits at $889,762, and that number is actually climbing - it's up from the 3-month moving average of $878,615. Property values nudged up 0.77% recently, which puts Kirkland houses at rank 3 out of 3 in the local growth leaderboard. That's bottom of the pack for growth, but the price rank is 1 out of 2, meaning we're still above average on price compared to similar neighbourhoods. One house sold at $2,000,000 with a price per square foot around $501. Volume is thin, so each sale carries a lot of weight here.

Condos: This is where we need to be honest. Condo values are sliding. The predicted market value is $504,951, and that's down from the 3-month moving average of $510,262. Values dropped 1.25% recently, and on the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, Kirkland condos rank 2 out of 2 - dead last. Nearby Seignory condos are sitting at $589,316, which means our condos are running about $84,000 behind that benchmark. If you own a condo here, this is not the moment to assume your value is holding steady.

• Condo predicted value: $504,951 - trending down

• Average HonestDoor Price across Kirkland: $595,288 - up 0.30%

• Airbnb rank in Montreal: 21st

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

Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. The city looks at sale data from a fixed period and locks in a number that can be 12 to 24 months out of date by the time it lands in your mailbox. A lot can change in that window.

The HonestDoor Price is a real-world check updated continuously using current market activity. Right now, the average HonestDoor Price in Kirkland is $595,288. That number moves with the market - not with the city's schedule. If condo values are sliding 1.25% and your assessment hasn't caught up yet, you could be making decisions - whether to sell, refinance, or renovate - based on a number that no longer reflects reality. The HonestDoor Price gives you the current picture, not last year's photo.

For house owners, the story is more encouraging. Your HonestDoor Price likely reflects that upward trend we're seeing in predicted values. Knowing that number now means you're negotiating from a position of actual knowledge, not guesswork.

The So What: Thinking About Selling This Summer?

If you own a house in Kirkland and you're thinking about listing this summer, the data is reasonably friendly. Values are inching up, the price rank is above average locally, and a house recently moved at $2,000,000. Buyer appetite for houses here exists. That said, with only 1 sale recorded, the market is thin - which cuts both ways. One strong sale can lift your price, but one slow month can make it look soft. Pricing sharp and presenting well matters more here than in a high-volume market.

If you own a condo, summer 2025 requires a clear-eyed conversation. Values are down 1.25%, you're trailing Seignory by a meaningful margin, and you're sitting at the bottom of the local growth leaderboard. That doesn't mean you can't sell - it means you need to price it right from day one. Overpricing a condo in a softening segment is the fastest way to sit on the market and watch your leverage disappear.

Either way, the first move is the same - pull your HonestDoor Price today. Know your real number before you talk to anyone. That's how you walk into any conversation this summer with the upper hand.
