Money-Buckingham, Burnaby - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Money-Buckingham, Burnaby: Still One of the Priciest Streets on the Block

The Vibe Right Now

If you live in Money-Buckingham, you already know this neighbourhood does not mess around when it comes to property values. But here is what the numbers are actually telling us right now - and it is a bit of a mixed bag depending on what you own.

Houses: Top of the Leaderboard, But Watch the Trend

Houses here are sitting at an average sale price of $2,600,000, with a price per square foot around $1,666. That is not a typo. On the neighbourhood leaderboard across Burnaby, we rank 1 out of 35 for price - meaning we are the most expensive house market in the city. That is a flex, but it comes with a reality check.

The predicted market value for houses is sitting at $2,366,283, and that number is drifting slightly below the 3-month moving average of $2,374,107. Values have nudged down 0.47% recently. The market is taking a breather. Only 1 house sold in the most recent period, and transaction volume across 2026 sits at just 4 sales. Low inventory cuts both ways - it keeps prices propped up, but it also means fewer data points to anchor a confident listing price.

The good news? On growth rate, we rank 4 out of 36 comparable neighbourhoods. That puts us firmly among the top performers in Burnaby, even if the short-term momentum has softened a touch.

• Average sale price (Houses): $2,600,000
• Price per square foot: $1,666
• Predicted market value: $2,366,283
• 3-month moving average: $2,374,107
• Recent value change: -0.47%
• Estimated monthly rent: $7,720
• Rental yield: 3.67%
• Growth rank in Burnaby: 4 out of 36
• Price rank in Burnaby: 1 out of 35

Condos: Affordable Entry Point, But Growth Is a Weak Spot

Condo owners, here is the honest picture. The average HonestDoor Price for condos in Money-Buckingham is $672,036 - up 0.37% from last period, which is actually a decent little bump. Predicted market value sits at $669,557, just a hair below the 3-month moving average of $669,652. Basically flat, but not falling off a cliff.

Where we need to be real with each other: condo growth ranks 30 out of 37 neighbourhoods in Burnaby. That puts us near the bottom of the pack on momentum. If you are a condo owner here, your unit is not losing ground dramatically, but it is not racing ahead either. Nearby Oakalle condos average $631,972 - cheaper than us - so we do hold a price premium in the area.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Condos): $672,036
• HonestDoor Price change: +0.37%
• Predicted market value: $669,557
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,101
• Rental yield: 3.50%
• Airbnb rank in Burnaby: 37
• Growth rank in Burnaby: 30 out of 37

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

Here is something most homeowners do not think about until it is too late. The city's assessed value for houses in Money-Buckingham averages $2,367,959. The average HonestDoor Price is $2,369,720 - 0.07% higher than that assessment. Sounds close, right? But the difference is in how each number is calculated.

Your BC Assessment is a snapshot frozen in time - typically reflecting market conditions from July 1 of the prior year. By the time you read it, the market has already moved. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time, pulling from actual sales, current listing activity, and live market signals. In a neighbourhood where a single sale can shift the average by hundreds of thousands of dollars, that lag matters enormously.

With only 4 transactions recorded in 2026 across 1,175 assessed properties, the city has very little fresh data to work with. Your HonestDoor Price is doing the heavy lifting that the assessment simply cannot do. Check it before you make any decisions - pricing, refinancing, or even just knowing where you stand.

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

If you own a house in Money-Buckingham and you are eyeing a summer sale, the fundamentals are still working in your favour. You are in the priciest house market in Burnaby, rental demand is strong at $7,720 a month in estimated rent, and your growth rank keeps you in elite company. But - and this is important - the short-term trend is softening. Pricing sharp and early will matter more this summer than it did two years ago.

For condo owners, the calculus is different. You hold a price premium over nearby Oakalle, but growth momentum is lagging. If selling is on your radar, do not wait for the market to re-accelerate on its own. Get your HonestDoor Price, compare it against what condos in Kingsway-Beresford and Richmond Park are doing, and make a move while your premium still holds.

Bottom line: Money-Buckingham is still one of the strongest addresses in Burnaby. But right now, knowing your real number - not the government's year-old guess - is the edge that separates a smart sale from a missed opportunity.
