Sunnybrook, Red Deer - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Sunnybrook, Red Deer: Your Neighbour Just Got a Raise. Did You?

If you own a home in Sunnybrook and you haven't checked your property value lately, you might be leaving real money on the table. The numbers are moving, and not everyone is moving with them. Here is what is actually happening on our streets right now.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos - Two Very Different Stories

Houses - Steady, Solid, and Worth Watching

If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Sunnybrook, here's what's actually happening with houses. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $513,261, up 3.68% from the previous period. That is real, measurable growth. Average sales are coming in around $538,000, and listings are currently asking $597,450. Buyers are paying 99.40% of list price - basically full ask - which tells us demand is holding firm.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $513,261 (up 3.68%)
• Average sale price: $538,000
• Current average list price: $597,450
• Price per square foot: $478
• Average days on market: 24
• Sale-to-list ratio: 99.40%
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,512
• Rental yield: 5.66% - that is strong
• Airbnb estimate: $125 per night
• 20 property transactions recorded in 2026

That 5.66% rental yield is the number investors notice. It means if we rented our house out tomorrow, we'd be earning a genuinely competitive return. Days on market at 24 is reasonably quick - homes are not sitting. And on the neighbourhood leaderboard, Sunnybrook houses rank 15 out of 80 for growth in Red Deer. Top 20%. That is not a fluke.

Compare that to nearby Mountview, where the predicted house value sits at $405,797. We are running about $90,000 ahead of them. Sunnybrook Extension is priced higher at $782,000, but we are punching well above Anders Park ($472,331) and Mountview ($466,268).

Condos - Taking a Breather, and Here's Why That Matters

The condo picture is a different conversation. Actual sales are averaging $159,000, with a sale-to-list ratio of 96.42% - buyers are negotiating a bit more room here. Properties are sitting for an average of 81 days, which is slow. On the Red Deer leaderboard, Sunnybrook condos rank 62 out of 73 for growth. That is a signal worth paying attention to.

• Average sale price: $159,000
• Current average list price: $164,900
• Price per square foot: $181
• Average days on market: 81
• Sale-to-list ratio: 96.42%
• Estimated monthly rent: $6,931
• Rental yield: 2.41%
• Airbnb estimate: $344 per night
• 2 property transactions in 2026

The condo segment is soft right now. Slow days on market and a bottom-tier growth rank tell us this is a buyer's market for condos specifically. If you own one and are thinking about selling, timing and pricing strategy matter a lot more here than they do on the house side.

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Beats Waiting for the Tax Man

Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from months ago, built on broad formulas, not your actual street. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, using current sales data from Sunnybrook and the neighbourhoods right around us. It reflects what a buyer would actually pay today, not what a government formula calculated last year.

With house values up 3.68% in the recent period, there is a real gap opening between what the assessment says and what your home is genuinely worth right now. That gap is your equity. Knowing it means you can make smarter decisions - whether that is refinancing, listing, or just knowing where you stand. Do not wait for a piece of mail to tell you what your biggest asset is worth. Check your HonestDoor Price today.

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

For house owners in Sunnybrook, the timing is genuinely decent. Buyers are paying close to full list price, homes are moving in under a month, and we are sitting in the top 20% of Red Deer neighbourhoods for growth. That is a combination sellers want to see. The window is open - but markets shift, and 24 days on market means you still need to price it right from day one.

For condo owners, be honest with yourself about the current conditions. Eighty-one days on market and a growth rank near the bottom of the Red Deer leaderboard means you need a sharp price and a clear strategy. It is not impossible to sell - 1 condo did move recently - but overpricing will cost you time and leverage.

Bottom line: if you own a house in Sunnybrook, this summer is worth a serious conversation about your options. Pull your HonestDoor Price, compare it to what your neighbour just sold for, and go from there. That is how we make smart moves - not by guessing.
