If you own a home on Spruce Avenue and the last number you checked was your city assessment, you are leaving real money on the table. Here is what is actually happening on our streets right now.
We are in a solid spot. The average house sold for $456,950 this month - up 14.5% from last month - and homes are flying off the market in an average of 18 days. That is faster than Prince Rupert, where houses are sitting for 24 days. Buyers are not hesitating here.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Spruce Avenue houses rank 70 out of 302 Edmonton neighbourhoods for growth - that puts us in the top quarter of the city. Days-on-market rank is 17 out of 103, which means we are in the top tier for speed. Buyers are competing here, not browsing.
The condo side of Spruce Avenue is a different story. One unit sold this month at $260,000, holding steady at list price. That is not a red flag - it is a stable, balanced market. But condos are taking 11 days to sell, which is a touch slower than nearby Alberta Avenue at 8 days. Not a crisis, just worth watching.
Condo growth ranks 100 out of 296 Edmonton neighbourhoods - still above average. And the days-on-market rank of 4 out of 108 means condos here are among the fastest-selling in the entire city when a deal is priced right.
Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. It does not know what sold on your block last month. It does not adjust for the fact that buyers right now are paying full list price and moving in 18 days.
The HonestDoor Price updates in real time. For houses on Spruce Avenue, that number sits at $456,600 - which is 13.94% higher than the average city assessment of $400,739. That gap is not a rounding error. On a typical home here, that is roughly $55,000 that the city's number is not capturing.
For condos, the HonestDoor Price is $196,557 and it has been ticking upward. The 3-month predicted value trend is climbing too. If you are a condo owner who last checked your value at assessment time, the real-world number may surprise you.
Think of the HonestDoor Price as the number a well-informed buyer would actually put on paper - not the number a government formula spits out once a year.
If you are a house owner on Spruce Avenue, the timing is genuinely good right now. Homes are selling at full asking price, demand is outpacing nearby neighbourhoods, and the HonestDoor Price is running well above what the city assessed you at. That combination does not last forever.
A few things worth knowing before you list:
For condo owners, the market is stable but not surging. If you are thinking about selling, pricing sharp and clean will matter - the buyers who are moving fast here are doing it because the deal makes sense to them immediately. Do not give them a reason to hesitate.
Bottom line: Spruce Avenue is punching above its weight in Edmonton right now. Check your HonestDoor Price at honestdoor.com before you make any decisions - because the city's number is not telling you the full story.
