Roseland, Burlington - August 2026 Real Estate Report

Roseland, Burlington: The Prices Are High, But the Market Is Telling Us Something

If you own a home in Roseland and you haven't checked your property value lately, now is the time to pay attention. Prices here are still among the highest in Burlington - but the numbers are moving in a direction every homeowner should know about before making a decision this summer.

The Vibe: What's Happening With Houses and Condos Right Now

Houses

Let's be straight with each other. The house market in Roseland is taking a breather. The average sale price sits at $1,857,000, and listings are coming in around $1,899,900. Buyers are paying about 97.74% of list price - so if you're listing at $1.9M, expect offers closer to $1.85M. That gap matters when you're planning your next move.

Homes are sitting on the market for an average of 30 days, and only 1 property sold last month. That's a thin market. It's not a crash, but it's not a frenzy either. We're in stable buyers' market territory, which means buyers have room to negotiate and sellers need to price sharp from day one.

• Average sale price: $1,857,000
• Average list price: $1,899,900
• Price per square foot: $903
• Sale-to-list ratio: 97.74%
• Average days on market: 30
• Rental estimate: $8,242 per month
• Rental yield: 3.52%
• Growth rank: 22 out of 22 in Burlington
• Price rank: 4 out of 19 in Burlington (we're expensive - that's real)

That growth rank is the number to sit with. On the Burlington neighbourhood leaderboard, Roseland houses are sitting dead last for value growth right now - 22nd out of 22. That doesn't mean your home isn't worth a lot. It means the appreciation momentum has stalled compared to the rest of the city. For sellers, timing is everything here.

Condos

The condo picture in Roseland tells a similar story. The average HonestDoor Price is $738,491, down 3.81% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average is $796,848, and the current predicted value is $767,781 - so the trend line is pointing downward. On the Burlington condo leaderboard, Roseland ranks 21st out of 21 for growth. Last place.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $738,491 (down 3.81%)
• Predicted market value: $767,781
• 3-month moving average: $796,848
• Rental estimate: $3,416 per month
• Rental yield: 3.34%
• Airbnb estimate: $170 per night (ranked 5th in Burlington)
• Growth rank: 21 out of 21 in Burlington

One bright spot - if you're thinking about short-term rentals, Roseland condos rank 5th in Burlington for Airbnb potential. That's not nothing. At $170 a night, there's a real income story here for the right owner.

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

Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what happened to prices last quarter. It doesn't know that Roseland houses are down 3.74% or that condos have slipped 3.81%. The government assessment is basically a photo from a few years ago. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual market activity right now.

For Roseland homeowners, that difference is significant. The average HonestDoor Price for a house here is $2,512,062. The predicted market value for houses is $2,609,673. Those numbers reflect today's reality - not what the city decided your home was worth during a different market cycle. If you're making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, estate planning - you want the number that reflects right now, not then.

Your neighbours in Shoreacres are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $2,210,424. Dynes comes in at $1,129,175. Roseland is still the premium address in this part of Burlington. But premium addresses aren't immune to market shifts, and right now the market is shifting.

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

If selling is on your radar this summer, here's the honest read. You're in one of Burlington's most expensive neighbourhoods, which is a real advantage. But you're also in a market where growth has stalled, buyers are negotiating below list price, and homes are taking a full month to sell. That combination means one thing: pricing strategy is everything.

Overpricing in this market doesn't create a bidding war - it creates a stale listing. Buyers in the $1.8M to $2.5M range are doing their homework. They're comparing Roseland to Shoreacres. They're looking at price per square foot. They're patient.

The sellers who will win this summer are the ones who come in priced at what the market will actually pay - not what they hope it will pay. Check your HonestDoor Price before you have that first conversation with an agent. It gives you an honest baseline, and right now, an honest baseline is the most valuable thing you can walk into a listing meeting with.

• Houses: Price sharp - buyers are landing at 97.74% of list
• Condos: The short-term rental angle (ranked 5th in Burlington for Airbnb) could be a selling point worth highlighting
• Both property types: Values are trending down from the 3-month average - waiting is not obviously the better move
• Know your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else

Roseland is still one of Burlington's best addresses. But the market right now rewards sellers who are realistic and buyers who are patient. Know your numbers, price it right, and move with confidence.
