Sunnyside, Calgary - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Sunnyside Real Talk: Your Home Is Worth More Than the City Thinks

The Vibe Right Now

If you own in Sunnyside and you haven't checked your HonestDoor Price lately, you're probably leaving money on the table. The city's assessment says the average house here is worth $814,748. The real world disagrees. The average HonestDoor Price for a Sunnyside house is $858,495 - that's 5.37% higher than what the city has on file. For condos, the gap is even bigger. The city assessed the average condo at $391,497. HonestDoor puts it at $470,842 - a 20.27% difference. That's not a rounding error. That's real money.

Houses - A Breather, Not a Bust

Let's be straight with each other. The house market in Sunnyside is taking a breather. The average sale price this month came in at $821,250, which is down 41.5% from last month. That's a big swing, but with only 2 sales recorded this month, one or two deals can move that number dramatically. Don't read too much into a single month of thin volume.

The better signal? Houses are still selling fast. Days on market is averaging just 13 days, and that speed ranks 12th out of 82 comparable neighbourhoods in Calgary. That's a top-15 result. When a house hits the market here, buyers are paying attention.

• Average sale price this month: $821,250
• Average listing price: $580,000
• Sale-to-list ratio: 100% - sellers got full asking price
• Price per square foot: $443
• Average days on market: 13
• HonestDoor predicted value: $852,201
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,640
• Rental yield: 5.08%
• Growth rank: 107 out of 238 neighbourhoods in Calgary

That 5.08% rental yield is genuinely strong. If you're an investor or thinking about holding your property as a rental, Sunnyside houses are punching above their weight. The predicted value of $852,201 is sitting just slightly below the 3-month moving average of $855,854, so we're in a mild dip - not a freefall.

Condos - The Market Is Cooling, But Demand Is Still There

The condo picture is a little softer. Six condos sold this month at an average of $369,450, and buyers are negotiating - properties are selling at 97.14% of list price, meaning sellers are giving a bit of ground. Average days on market is 31 days, which is moderate. Not slow, but not the frenzy we saw in tighter markets.

The growth rank for condos sits at 129 out of 216 Calgary neighbourhoods - that puts us in below-average territory for price growth right now. Values have dipped 0.96% recently. We're not going to sugarcoat it - the condo segment is in a buyers' market at the moment.

• Average sale price this month: $369,450
• Average listing price: $433,475
• Sale-to-list ratio: 97.14% - buyers have some negotiating room
• Price per square foot: $439
• Average days on market: 31
• HonestDoor predicted value: $468,881
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,149
• Rental yield: 3.94%
• Growth rank: 129 out of 216 neighbourhoods in Calgary

That said, a 3.94% rental yield is still moderate and steady income. And with 40 condo transactions recorded in 2026 across 1,148 assessed properties, there's real activity here. The condo leaderboard ranking of 18th in Calgary for total transactions tells us buyers are still showing up - they're just being pickier about price.

The Secret Sauce - Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters Right Now

Here's the thing about city assessments - they're a snapshot from the past. The city looks at sale data from months ago, runs it through their formula, and mails you a number. By the time it lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved.

The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time using current sales, current listings, and current market signals. For Sunnyside house owners, that means a number that's $43,747 higher than the city's assessment on average. For condo owners, the gap is $79,345. If you're making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just knowing your net worth - using the city's stale assessment is like navigating with last year's map.

Both the house and condo HonestDoor Prices have ticked up from the previous period - houses by 0.74% and condos by 0.47%. Small moves, but they're moving in the right direction while the broader market catches its breath.

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

If you own a house in Sunnyside and you're thinking about listing this summer, the speed of the market is your friend. A 13-day average days on market means serious buyers are out there and moving quickly. The key is pricing it right from day one - the sale-to-list ratio of 100% tells us the market rewards accurate pricing and punishes wishful thinking.

For condo owners, the honest advice is this: price competitively from the start. Buyers are paying 97% of list, not 100%. If you list high hoping to negotiate down, you'll sit. If you price sharp, you'll move in a reasonable timeframe. The 31-day average is workable - just don't expect a bidding war in the current environment.

For both property types, check your HonestDoor Price before you have any conversation with an agent. It gives you a real-world anchor for that discussion - one that reflects what the market is actually doing today, not what the city decided six months ago.

Sunnyside has 499 assessed houses and 1,148 assessed condos. With 42 house transactions and 40 condo transactions already recorded in 2026, this neighbourhood stays active. The fundamentals - location, walkability, proximity to downtown - haven't changed. The market is just recalibrating, and that creates opportunity for sellers who know their real numbers.
