If you have been glancing at your latest property assessment and feeling pretty good about yourself, hold on. The city says the average Northlands home is worth $1,807,194. HonestDoor's real-time data puts it at $1,759,784. That is a $47,410 gap - and it matters more than you might think heading into summer selling season.
Let us break it down by property type, because houses and condos are telling two very different stories right now.
Our houses are holding their ground. The average sale price sits at $1,652,500, and the HonestDoor Price for houses is tracking at $1,733,904 - up slightly from the 3-month moving average of $1,726,461. That is a 0.39% nudge in the right direction. Not a rocket ship, but not a slide either.
Only 3 sales to work with means we are reading a thin market. But the price-per-square-foot at $781 and a rental yield of 3.90% signal that houses here still carry real weight. If you are a landlord, $6,163 a month in estimated rent is nothing to shrug at.
This is where we need to be straight with each other. Condo values in Northlands are taking a breather - and it is more than a short rest. The HonestDoor Price jumped 8.64% from the previous period to $934,753, but the predicted market value has dropped to $860,449, down from a 3-month moving average of $925,383. That is a -8.50% recent change. On the North Vancouver growth leaderboard, Northlands condos rank 47 out of 48. That is near the bottom.
One sale is a very small sample. But the trend in predicted values is worth watching closely. The good news - if you own a condo here, you are sitting in one of the priciest condo markets in North Vancouver. The challenge is that values are moving the wrong direction in the short term.
Your city assessment was calculated months ago using data that is even older than that. It is a snapshot of a market that has already moved on. The HonestDoor Price pulls from current sales activity, real-time market shifts, and comparable properties selling today - not last year.
In Northlands, the average assessed value is $1,807,194. The average HonestDoor Price is $1,759,784. That is 2.62% lower. If you are pricing a listing based on your assessment, you could be starting the conversation in the wrong place - and sitting on the market longer than you need to.
Think of the HonestDoor Price as the number a well-connected neighbour who tracks every sale on your street would give you over the fence. It is the real-world check, not the government's best guess from six months ago.
If you own a house in Northlands, the case for selling this summer is reasonable. Values are inching up, the growth rank puts us ahead of most North Vancouver neighbourhoods, and demand - while quiet - has not collapsed. Pricing at or just below the HonestDoor Price of $1,733,904 rather than anchoring to the $1,807,194 assessment could be the move that actually gets you to the table.
If you own a condo, the honest answer is: timing matters more right now. With predicted values sliding and a near-bottom growth rank, waiting for a clearer signal makes sense unless you have a specific reason to move. That said, Northlands condos still command some of the highest prices in North Vancouver - so if your unit is well-positioned, a sharp price and a clean listing can still find a buyer.
Either way, check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It takes two minutes and it is the most current number you will find - no waiting for next year's assessment to tell you what your home is worth today.
