If you live in Longwoods and you haven't checked your property value lately, here's the honest picture. The neighbourhood is a bit of a split personality at the moment - and that's actually useful information depending on what you own.
Houses are taking a breather. The HonestDoor Price for a house here sits at $754,565, up 3.01% from the previous period, which sounds great. But the 3-month trend tells a more cautious story - predicted values have dipped to $732,549, down about 2.22% recently, and that's below the 3-month moving average of $747,829. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses rank 34 out of 37 for growth in London. That puts us near the bottom of the pack right now. Not a crisis, but not a sprint either.
Condos are a different conversation. The HonestDoor Price for condos is $572,178, up 1.06%, and the predicted value of $566,195 is actually climbing above the 3-month moving average of $556,696. Recent growth is up 3.34%, and on the leaderboard, Longwoods condos rank 8 out of 39 neighbourhoods in London. That puts us solidly above average. If you own a condo here, that's a number worth paying attention to.
Here's the thing about your city assessment: it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what happened to values last quarter, last month, or last week. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual market activity. So when the city says your home is worth X, and HonestDoor says something different, the HonestDoor number is the real-world check - the one that reflects what a buyer would actually put on the table today.
For house owners in Longwoods, that gap matters right now. If your tax assessment is lagging behind a recent dip in predicted values, you could be making decisions - whether to sell, refinance, or renovate - based on a number that no longer reflects reality. Check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else.
For condo owners, the opposite might be true. Your real-time value could be outpacing what the city has on file. That's equity you might not even know you have.
If you own a house in Longwoods and you're thinking about listing this summer, the window is open but it's not wide. The 3-month trend is softening, and sitting at 34 out of 37 on the growth leaderboard means other London neighbourhoods are pulling buyers' attention. That doesn't mean don't sell - it means price it right from day one. Overpricing a house in a cooling trend is the fastest way to sit on the market and lose leverage.
On the rental side, a 5.19% yield on houses is genuinely strong. If selling isn't urgent, holding and renting is a real option worth running the numbers on - $3,469 a month is not nothing.
If you own a condo, the timing looks better. Values are trending up, the growth rank is strong, and at $566,195 you're already ahead of nearby Bostwick condos sitting at $518,728. Buyers looking at Longwoods condos are comparing you to a neighbourhood that's cheaper - and you're still gaining ground. That's a good story to tell in a listing.
Bottom line: Longwoods isn't the hottest neighbourhood on London's leaderboard right now, but it's not broken either. Know your number, know your timing, and don't let an outdated assessment make the decision for you.
