If you live in Sunnyside and you have been quietly wondering whether your home is worth more than what the city says - the answer is yes, and the gap is real. Here is what is actually going on right now.
For those of us in houses, the story is steady. Average sale prices are sitting at $1,225,333 with price per square foot around $580. Six homes sold recently - essentially flat from last month - and the predicted market value is $1,184,509, nudging up from the 3-month moving average of $1,181,530. That is a small but positive signal. The rental picture is solid too, with estimated rent at $4,614 per month and a rental yield of 4.54%. If you are a landlord here, that is a respectable return.
The honest part? House values have dipped 0.38% recently, and on the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, Sunnyside houses rank 38 out of 45 Surrey neighbourhoods. That puts us near the bottom for growth right now. The market is not falling off a cliff - it is just taking a breather. On price though, we rank 20 out of 45, which means we are sitting above average compared to most of Surrey. That is worth something.
For those of us in condos, the picture is a little more mixed. Average sale prices are at $521,500 with price per square foot around $552. Eight condos sold recently. The predicted market value is $570,297, which is actually dipping slightly below the 3-month moving average of $573,371 - a small flag worth watching. Rental yield comes in at 3.72%, which is moderate but not spectacular. Condo values have moved down 1.01% recently, and on the growth leaderboard, Sunnyside condos rank 28 out of 44 Surrey neighbourhoods - below average, but not at the bottom. On price, condos rank 12 out of 27, which is above average. We are priced well, even if growth is slow.
Here is the thing about your BC Assessment notice. It is a snapshot from last July. A lot has happened since then. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual sales data, and right now it is telling a different story than the city's number.
For houses in Sunnyside, the average assessed value is $1,166,416. The average HonestDoor Price is $1,175,130 - that is 0.75% higher than the Surrey average assessed value. For condos, the gap is even bigger. The average assessed value is $558,449, but the HonestDoor Price comes in at $574,961 - a full 2.96% above the Surrey average assessed value, and up 0.82% from the previous period.
That difference is not just a number. It is the gap between what the government thinks your home is worth and what a buyer would actually pay today. If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just benchmarking your net worth - the HonestDoor Price is the real-world check you need right now, not a number that was locked in months ago.
If you are thinking about listing this summer, here is the straight talk. Sunnyside is not a runaway seller's market right now. Growth is slow, and both houses and condos have seen small recent dips. But - and this matters - prices are holding at a solid level. Houses are above average in price across Surrey, and condos are above average too. You are not in a weak position. You are in a stable one.
The bigger picture worth knowing: nearby South Surrey has an average HonestDoor Price of $2,222,329 for houses. That is a very different price tier. Sunnyside is not competing with South Surrey - it is serving a different buyer. And with 4,240 house properties and 2,784 condo properties assessed this year, there is real depth to this market. Buyers have options, which means your listing needs to be priced sharp.
The play for sellers right now is simple. Check your HonestDoor Price before you call an agent. Know whether you are above or below the $1,175,130 house average or the $574,961 condo average. That number is your starting point for a real conversation - not the city's assessment, and not last year's sale down the street.
Sunnyside is steady. If you price it right this summer, there are buyers. If you overshoot, you will sit. The data is telling you exactly where the line is.
