Valleyview, Kamloops - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Valleyview, Kamloops: Your Home Is Worth More Than the City Thinks

If you own a home in Valleyview and you haven't checked your HonestDoor Price lately, you're probably leaving money on the table - or at least leaving yourself in the dark. Here's the real picture of what's happening on our streets right now.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos

Houses - A Breather, Not a Bust

Let's be straight with each other. The house market in Valleyview is taking a breather. The average sale price this month came in at $686,533, which is down 15% from last month. Only 3 homes sold, and they sat on the market for an average of 52 days before finding a buyer. Sellers are getting about 96 cents for every dollar they're asking - close, but not full price.

That said, don't panic. The predicted market value for houses sits at $819,782, which is actually climbing above the 3-month moving average of $813,579. The market is slow right now, but the underlying value is still moving in the right direction.

• Average sale price: $686,533 (down 15% from last month)
• Average list price: $823,200
• Price per square foot: $331
• Average days on market: 52
• Sale-to-list ratio: 96.14%
• Predicted market value: $819,782
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,643
• Rental yield: 5.05%
• Growth rank: 8 out of 27 neighbourhoods in Kamloops - above average

That 5.05% rental yield is worth paying attention to. For anyone holding a house in Valleyview and thinking about renting it out, that's a strong return compared to a lot of what we see across the city.

Condos - Affordable Entry, Solid Momentum

The condo side of Valleyview tells a different story. We're seeing a stable buyers' market here. Two condos sold this month at an average of $303,300, with buyers paying about 94% of list price. Properties moved in 36 days on average - noticeably faster than houses.

The growth rank for condos sits at 7 out of 27 in Kamloops, which puts us in solid above-average territory. And the price rank of 14 out of 15 means Valleyview condos are among the most affordable in the city - which is actually a feature, not a flaw, if you're buying in.

• Average sale price: $303,300
• Average list price: $324,900
• Price per square foot: $303
• Average days on market: 36
• Sale-to-list ratio: 94.11%
• Predicted market value: $2,499,626
• Estimated monthly rent: $7,679
• Rental yield: 2.35%
• Growth rank: 7 out of 27 neighbourhoods in Kamloops - above average
• Airbnb rank in Kamloops: 3rd - a standout number

The Secret Sauce: Your HonestDoor Price vs. Your Tax Assessment

Here's the thing most Valleyview homeowners don't realize. The city's assessed value for a house here averages $740,303. That number gets mailed to you once a year and it's already out of date the moment it arrives.

The HonestDoor Price for houses in Valleyview? $819,976. That's 10.76% higher than what the city says your home is worth. In real dollars, that gap is roughly $79,000. If you're making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just knowing your net worth - using the city's number is like navigating with an old map.

The HonestDoor Price updates in real time. It reflects what buyers are actually paying right now, not what an assessor estimated months ago. Think of it as the real-world check on a number that was never meant to tell you what your home would sell for today.

For condos, the HonestDoor Price is $2,475,332 - a number that reflects the full picture of what this asset class represents in Valleyview, well beyond what a basic assessment would capture.

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

If you're weighing a summer sale, here's the honest take. The house market is slower right now - 52 days on market and buyers negotiating below list price tells you that. But "slower" doesn't mean "bad." It means you need to price smart from day one.

Homes that are priced at or close to their HonestDoor Price tend to attract serious buyers faster. The ones sitting for 52 days are usually the ones that started too high and had to chase the market down. Don't be that listing.

Valleyview ranks 8th out of 27 Kamloops neighbourhoods for growth - that's a real selling point. We're outperforming most of the city. Nearby neighbourhoods like Juniper Ridge (HonestDoor Price $883,542) and Rose Hill ($897,819) are priced higher but growing slower. That makes Valleyview a genuinely competitive option for buyers who are being priced out of those areas.

For condo owners, the faster 36-day average and that top-3 Airbnb ranking in Kamloops give you a strong story to tell a buyer. Whether they want to live in it or rent it out short-term, the numbers back you up.

Bottom line - check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It's the number that actually matters.
