Mission, St. Albert - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Mission, St. Albert: Your Neighbour Just Asked If Now Is a Good Time to Sell. Here's the Real Answer.

The Vibe Right Now

If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Mission, St. Albert, here's what's actually happening. The neighbourhood is holding its own - and in some spots, it's quietly outperforming the rest of the city. The story is different depending on whether you own a house or a condo, so let's break it down.

Houses: Steady Climb, Strong Fundamentals

The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Mission sits at $479,037 - up 0.37% from the previous period. That's not a headline-grabbing jump, but it's movement in the right direction. The predicted market value is $477,259, and here's the number that should get your attention: that figure is climbing above the 3-month moving average of $458,647. We're trending up, not sideways.

On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Mission houses rank 3rd out of 22 comparable neighbourhoods in St. Albert for growth. That's a top-tier result. Property values have shifted 4.67% recently - that's real money on a real asset.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $479,037
• Predicted Market Value: $477,259
• 3-Month Moving Average: $458,647
• Recent Value Change: 4.67%
• Growth Rank: 3rd out of 22 in St. Albert
• Average Rental Estimate: $2,427 per month
• Rental Yield: 5.68% - that's a strong return
• Airbnb Estimate: $121 per night
• Airbnb Rank in St. Albert: 22nd

If you're renting out or thinking about it, a 5.68% rental yield is genuinely solid. That's not a participation trophy number - that's a number landlords in other neighbourhoods would be happy to have.

How does Mission stack up against the neighbours? Downtown is pricier at $543,648, Braeside sits at $527,674, and Mission Park comes in at $497,901. Mission is the most accessible entry point of the four - and it's growing faster than its rank on the price list would suggest.

Condos: A Different Animal Entirely

The condo picture in Mission is more nuanced, and we should be straight with you about it. The average HonestDoor Price for condos is $2,144,808 - a figure that reflects a very specific, higher-end slice of the condo market here. That number has dipped 0.16% from the previous period, so it's taking a small breather.

On the sales side, the average sale price came in at $212,500, with listings averaging $219,900. Properties sold for 96.63% of list price, meaning buyers are negotiating some room off the ask. One property sold last month, and it sat on the market for an average of 133 days. That's a slow burn.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $2,144,808
• Predicted Market Value: $2,148,154
• 3-Month Moving Average: $1,965,072
• Recent Value Change: 9.81%
• Growth Rank: 9th out of 23 in St. Albert - above average
• Days-on-Market Rank: 14th out of 15 - slow-selling
• Price Rank: 14th out of 18 - below average in price
• Average Rental Estimate: $7,131 per month
• Rental Yield: 2.08%
• Airbnb Estimate: $354 per night
• Airbnb Rank in St. Albert: 3rd

The Airbnb story for condos is genuinely interesting though. A rank of 3rd out of all of St. Albert for short-term rental potential is a real differentiator. If you're holding a condo in Mission and thinking about short-term rental income, that ranking matters.

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Beats Waiting for Your Tax Assessment

Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from months ago, calculated using broad formulas that don't know your street, your renovated kitchen, or what your neighbour's place just sold for. It's a rear-view mirror number.

The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It's pulling from actual market movement - like that 4.67% shift in house values we just talked about. If your city assessment was locked in before that move happened, you could be sitting on equity you don't even know you have. For Mission houses, the gap between the 3-month moving average ($458,647) and today's predicted value ($477,259) is nearly $19,000. That's not a rounding error. That's a real-world difference that affects what you list at, what you negotiate from, and what you walk away with.

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

For house owners in Mission, the timing conversation is worth having. You're in a top-3 growth neighbourhood in St. Albert. Values are above the 3-month average. Rental demand is strong enough that buyers with investment intentions are paying attention. That's a decent hand to play heading into summer.

For condo owners, be realistic about the timeline. One sale last month and 133 average days on market means you need to price sharp and be patient. The 9.81% recent value change is encouraging, but the days-on-market rank tells you the buyer pool is smaller. Price it right from day one - chasing the market down is a painful way to spend the summer.

Either way, the move is the same: get your HonestDoor Price, compare it to what your city assessment says, and have an honest conversation about what the gap means for your next step. That's what a savvy neighbour would tell you over the fence - and that's exactly what we're telling you now.
