If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs in Stoney 1, here is what is actually happening. We are in a market that is taking a breather. The average HonestDoor Price for a house here sits at $778,410, and it has dipped 0.77% from the previous period. The predicted market value comes in a touch higher at $784,425, but that number is trending down - the 3-month moving average is $798,213, which means values have slid about 2.17% in recent months.
For us locals, that gap between where prices were three months ago and where they are today is the number worth watching. It is not a freefall, but it is a clear signal that the market has shifted gears.
Here is the honest part. On Calgary's neighborhood growth leaderboard, Stoney 1 houses rank 198 out of 238 neighborhoods. That puts us firmly in the bottom tier of performers right now. It does not mean your home has no value - it absolutely does - but it does mean the tailwind that was pushing prices up is not blowing as hard here as it is in other parts of the city.
For context, here is how nearby neighborhoods stack up on price:
Stoney 1 commands a significant price premium over its neighbors - roughly $165,000 to $228,000 more per home. That premium is real, but it also means buyers have cheaper alternatives right next door. That is worth keeping in mind if you are pricing a listing.
Your city tax assessment is a snapshot taken months ago, sometimes based on data that is over a year old. It does not know that Stoney 1 prices have dropped 2.17% in recent months. Your HonestDoor Price does. It updates in real time, pulling in current sales and market signals to give you a live read on what your home is actually worth today - not what a government office thought it was worth last January.
Right now, with values moving downward, that difference matters. If you are making any financial decision tied to your home - refinancing, selling, or even just benchmarking your net worth - the HonestDoor Price is the real-world check you need. Do not let a stale assessment give you a false sense of where you stand.
If selling is on your radar this summer, here is the straight talk. The window where you could price high and wait for offers is narrower than it was. With a growth rank of 198 out of 238 and a 3-month trend pointing down, buyers in Stoney 1 have more leverage than they did six months ago.
The good news - your home still carries a strong price premium over most nearby neighborhoods, and the rental fundamentals here are genuinely solid. Estimated rent runs $3,302 to $3,324 per month, with a rental yield of 5.25%. That is a number that attracts investors, and investors can be serious buyers.
Bottom line - price it right from day one. Overpricing in a softening market just means a price cut later, and that sends the wrong signal to buyers. Pull your HonestDoor Price, compare it honestly to what is selling nearby, and get ahead of the trend rather than chasing it.
