Kirkness, Edmonton - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Kirkness, Edmonton: Your Home Is Worth More Than the City Thinks

If you own a place in Kirkness and you have not checked your HonestDoor Price lately, now is the time. The city's assessment is lagging behind what the market is actually doing - and for most homeowners here, that gap is working in your favour.

The Vibe: What Is Actually Happening in Kirkness Right Now

Kirkness is a neighbourhood that does not make a lot of noise, but the numbers are worth paying attention to. We saw 54 house transactions and 35 condo transactions in 2026 so far, across 910 assessed properties. That is a decent amount of activity for a community this size. Here is how the two property types are playing out differently.

Houses: Taking a Breather, But Still Moving

The house market in Kirkness is cooling off. Average sale prices sit at $327,333 this month, down 22% from last month, and listings are averaging $285,000. That is a notable gap. Buyers are paying about 98.25% of list price, meaning sellers are giving a little ground to get deals done. Properties are sitting on the market for an average of 28 days - which sounds slow until you compare it to nearby Ebbers at 41 days. We are actually moving homes faster than our neighbours.

• Average sale price (houses): $327,333
• Average list price this month: $285,000
• Price per square foot: $338
• Sale-to-list ratio: 98.25%
• Average days on market: 28 days (vs. Ebbers at 41 days)
• Predicted market value: $403,925
• Rental yield: 5.81% - that is a strong return
• Growth rank: 171 out of 291 neighbourhoods in Edmonton
• Price rank: 230 out of 285 - among the most affordable in the city

That predicted market value of $403,925 is creeping up from the 3-month moving average of $402,484. It is a small move, but it is moving in the right direction. For investors, a 5.81% rental yield on a house is genuinely solid. Estimated rent comes in around $2,098 per month.

Condos: Fast, Affordable, and Holding Their Own

The condo story in Kirkness is different - and honestly more interesting right now. Ten condos sold this month, and they are flying off the market in an average of 12 days. That earns us a days-on-market rank of 7 out of 112 neighbourhoods in Edmonton. That is not a typo. We are in the top tier for condo speed.

• Average sale price (condos): $141,553
• Average list price this month: $119,900
• Price per square foot: $176
• Sale-to-list ratio: 100% - a balanced market
• Average days on market: 12 days
• Predicted market value: $194,973
• Rental yield: 4.32%
• Growth rank: 207 out of 302 neighbourhoods in Edmonton
• Price rank: 208 out of 216 - among the most affordable condos in Edmonton

Condo values have dipped 2.31% recently and the predicted value of $194,973 is slightly below the 3-month moving average of $198,827. That is worth watching. But the fact that condos here are selling faster than almost anywhere else in Edmonton tells you demand is real. And at $141,553 average sale price, Kirkness condos are still beating out nearby options - our predicted value of $194,973 is higher than both Hairsine ($184,162) and Ebbers ($193,442).

The Secret Sauce: Your HonestDoor Price vs. Your Tax Assessment

Here is the thing about your city assessment. It is a snapshot taken months ago, using data that is even older. It does not know what sold on your street last week. It does not adjust for what buyers are actually paying right now.

For houses in Kirkness, the average assessed value is $383,581. The average HonestDoor Price is $397,266. That is a $13,685 difference - and the HonestDoor Price is the one reflecting real-world market conditions today. For condos, the numbers are nearly even - assessed at $204,380, HonestDoor Price at $203,981 - but the HonestDoor Price has jumped 4.62% from the previous period. That momentum matters.

The HonestDoor Price is updated continuously using actual sales data, market trends, and current listings. Think of your city assessment as last year's menu prices. The HonestDoor Price is what things actually cost today.

The So What: Should You Sell in Kirkness This Summer?

If you own a house in Kirkness and you are thinking about selling, here is the honest read. The market is softer than it was a few months ago. Prices are down and buyers have a bit more leverage than they did. But your home is still selling faster than in Ebbers, and the predicted value of $403,925 is above both the assessed value and the current HonestDoor Price. You are not in a bad spot - you just need to price it right from day one.

If you own a condo, the case for selling is actually pretty compelling right now. Condos are moving in 12 days at full list price. That is a balanced market leaning toward sellers. If you have been sitting on the fence, this summer window is worth a serious look before conditions shift.

Either way, the first step is knowing what your place is actually worth - not what the city decided it was worth last year. Check your HonestDoor Price at HonestDoor.com. It takes about 30 seconds and it is free.
