If you live on the house side of Ogden's Beach, things are looking pretty solid. Our houses are holding their ground and then some. Condos, on the other hand, are taking a bit of a breather - and if you own one, that's worth paying attention to before summer hits.
Here is the honest picture for houses in our neighbourhood right now.
That growth rank is the number we should all be talking about. Out of 7 comparable Midland neighbourhoods, Ogden's Beach houses sit at number 2. We are ahead of Midland proper ($554,161 predicted value) and trailing Tiffin ($612,625) - but the gap is closing. For anyone who bought here a few years ago thinking it was a quiet corner of Midland, the numbers are starting to prove you right.
The rental yield of 5.53% is also worth flagging. That is not a "meh" number - that is the kind of return that gets investors paying attention. If you have been sitting on a house here and wondering whether to rent or sell, that yield tells a real story.
We will be straight with you here. The condo side of Ogden's Beach is in a different spot right now.
That growth rank of 6 out of 6 is not a number to ignore. It does not mean your condo is worthless - the average HonestDoor Price is still $642,596, which is actually higher than condos in Tiffin ($596,746), Midland ($556,005), and Midland Point ($600,767). But the direction of travel matters. Values are sliding slightly, and the 3-month average confirms it is not a one-week blip.
The one bright spot? Ogden's Beach condos rank number 1 in Midland for Airbnb potential, at $146 per night. If you are not using that angle, you are leaving money on the table.
Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. It does not know that house values in Ogden's Beach just moved up 2.05%, or that condo values have shifted down 2.72%. It is working off old data, and in a market that is actually moving, old data can cost you real money.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It is pulling from actual market signals right now - not from what your home was worth when the assessment was last run. For houses, that means the real number ($561,390) is likely ahead of what the city thinks. For condo owners, it means you need to know where you actually stand before you make any decisions - not where you stood 18 months ago.
Think of your HonestDoor Price as the real-world check. It is what a buyer would actually talk about today, not what a government form says.
If you own a house in Ogden's Beach, this summer is a reasonable window. Values are trending up, the 3-month average is climbing, and we are ranked second in the neighbourhood growth leaderboard across Midland. You are not at the peak of a frenzy, but you are in a market that is moving in the right direction. Listing while momentum is on your side is smarter than waiting to see if it holds.
If you own a condo, the conversation is a bit different. Values have dipped 2.72% recently and the 3-month average is softening. That does not mean you should panic - your condo is still priced above most comparable neighbourhoods in Midland. But if you were already thinking about selling, sooner is probably better than later while your price is still holding above the competition. And if you are not selling, lean into that number 1 Airbnb ranking. At $146 a night, there is a real income story here that most condo owners in Midland cannot tell.
Either way, the first step is knowing your actual number. Check your HonestDoor Price before you call an agent, set a list price, or make any move. It is the most current read you have got.
