Pollard Meadows, Edmonton - August 2026 Real Estate Report

Pollard Meadows Real Estate Update: Solid Value, Two Very Different Stories

If you live in Pollard Meadows and you haven't checked your home's actual market value lately, now is the time. The city's assessment is one number. What buyers are actually paying is another. And right now, those two numbers are telling a pretty interesting story.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos - Not the Same Market

Let's be straight with you - houses and condos in our neighbourhood are moving in opposite directions right now, and knowing which camp you're in matters a lot.

Houses: Things are moving. The average sale price for houses hit $416,500, which is up 31% from last month. Yes, that's a big jump. With only 2 sales recorded, a single deal can swing that number, so take the monthly percentage with a grain of salt - but the direction is right. Homes are sitting on the market for an average of just 19 days, which ranks us 18th out of 108 Edmonton neighbourhoods for speed. That is fast. Buyers are paying 99.3% of list price, meaning almost nobody is getting a discount. The predicted market value for a house here sits at $413,009, up from the 3-month average of $409,252. We're trending in the right direction.

• Average house sale price: $416,500
• Average listing price: $419,450
• Price per square foot: $464
• Average days on market: 19
• Sale-to-list ratio: 99.30%
• Predicted market value: $413,009
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,137
• Rental yield: 5.80%
• Growth rank: 99 out of 292 Edmonton neighbourhoods - above average

Condos: This is where we need to be honest. The condo side is taking a breather. The predicted market value has slipped to $201,462, down from the 3-month moving average of $208,376. Values have dropped 2.99% recently, and the growth rank sits at 277 out of 302 - that puts condos near the bottom of the Edmonton leaderboard right now. The one condo that sold went for $116,000 at 95.91% of list price, meaning the buyer did get a small discount. Properties are sitting for 89 days on average. The silver lining? We're still selling faster than nearby Daly Grove, where condos average 116 days.

• Average condo sale price: $116,000
• Average listing price: $119,900
• Price per square foot: $133
• Average days on market: 89
• Sale-to-list ratio: 95.91%
• Predicted market value: $201,462
• Estimated monthly rent: $1,097
• Rental yield: 4.30%
• Growth rank: 277 out of 302 Edmonton neighbourhoods

The Secret Sauce: Your HonestDoor Price vs. That Government Assessment

Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from months ago, built on data that's already old by the time it lands in your mailbox. The market doesn't wait for paperwork.

Right now, the average HonestDoor Price for a house in Pollard Meadows is $414,853. The average city assessment? $397,630. That's a gap of roughly $17,000 - or 4.33% - that your assessment is simply not capturing. If you're making any financial decision based on that assessment number alone, you're working with an incomplete picture.

For condos, the same gap exists. The average HonestDoor Price is $195,445 against an assessed value of $188,225. That's a $7,200 difference. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual transaction data. The city assessment does not. One of these numbers reflects what a buyer would pay today. The other reflects what a buyer might have paid a while ago.

Check your HonestDoor Price now - not when you're already in the middle of a deal.

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

If you own a house in Pollard Meadows and you're thinking about listing this summer, the conditions are genuinely working in your favour right now. Homes are selling in under three weeks. Buyers are paying almost full list price. The predicted value is climbing past the 3-month average. With 41 total property transactions recorded in 2026 and 866 assessed properties in the neighbourhood, there's real activity here - not just noise.

Our neighbourhood growth rate of 0.07% year over year is modest, but compare us to Crawford Plains and Daly Grove - both sitting at the same range - and we're holding our own. Anthony Henday South East is priced much higher, which tells you buyers who get priced out of that area may well be looking our way.

If you own a condo, the honest advice is to be patient or be priced right. The market is softer, days on market are longer, and values have been slipping. That doesn't mean you can't sell - it means you need a sharp list price from day one. Overpricing a condo right now will cost you time, and time costs money.

Bottom line - houses in Pollard Meadows are a strong sell this summer. Condos need a smart strategy. Either way, start with your real number. Check your HonestDoor Price at HonestDoor.com before you do anything else.
