Waverley, Guelph - July 2026 Real Estate Report

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

The Vibe Right Now

If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs on your street and wondering what's actually going on, here's the honest version. Waverley is holding its ground, but the story is different depending on what you own. Houses and condos are moving in two different directions - and that matters a lot if you're thinking about your next move.

Houses: Steady, Not Spectacular

The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Waverley sits at $883,047 right now. That's down 1.17% from the last period - a small dip, not a freefall. Think of it as the market taking a breather after a long run. The forward-looking number is actually more encouraging: the predicted market value is $893,477, which is climbing above the 3-month moving average of $884,794. That tells us the floor is holding and prices are nudging back up.

For landlords and investors, houses here are pulling their weight. Estimated rent comes in at $3,901 per month with a rental yield of 4.90%. That's a solid, moderate return in a city where yields can be hard to find. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Waverley houses rank 11 out of 22 in Guelph for growth - right in the above-average tier. Not leading the pack, but not getting left behind either.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Houses): $883,047
• Predicted Market Value: $893,477
• 3-Month Moving Average: $884,794
• Estimated Monthly Rent: $3,901
• Rental Yield: 4.90%
• Recent Value Change: +0.41%
• Growth Rank: 11 out of 22 in Guelph (above average)
• Airbnb Estimate: $192 per night

Condos: The Quiet Overachiever

Here's where it gets interesting for us condo owners. Yes, the average HonestDoor Price dropped 3.73% to $513,747 - that stings a little. But look at the predicted value: $533,653. That's well above the 3-month moving average of $512,998, and recent values have moved up 2.99%. The market is already correcting course.

The bigger story? Waverley condos rank 3 out of 23 in Guelph for growth. That puts us in the top performers in the entire city. If you own a condo here, that ranking is worth paying attention to. Rent estimates of $2,612 per month and a 3.79% yield round out a picture of a property type that's quietly punching above its weight.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Condos): $513,747
• Predicted Market Value: $533,653
• 3-Month Moving Average: $512,998
• Estimated Monthly Rent: $2,612
• Rental Yield: 3.79%
• Recent Value Change: +2.99%
• Growth Rank: 3 out of 23 in Guelph (top performer)
• Airbnb Estimate: $125 per night

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment

Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what sold on your block last month. It doesn't factor in where prices are heading right now. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual market activity. For Waverley houses, that gap between the static assessment and the live predicted value of $893,477 could mean tens of thousands of dollars you're either leaving on the table or overpaying on. Check your HonestDoor Price before you make any decision - selling, refinancing, or even just figuring out if your insurance coverage still makes sense.

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

If you own a house in Waverley and you've been on the fence, the data says don't wait for a big pop. The market is stable, values are inching up, and buyer demand for this price range in Guelph is real. Listing while the predicted value is above the recent average is the smart play. Waiting for a dramatic surge that may not come is the risky one.

If you own a condo, the growth rank of 3 out of 23 is your best sales pitch. Buyers looking at Guelph condos can see that Waverley is outperforming most of the city. That's a story worth telling - and pricing your unit around the $533,653 predicted value rather than the dipped average gives you room to negotiate without leaving money behind.

Either way, the first step is the same. Pull your HonestDoor Price today. Know your real number before anyone else does.
