If you live in West Hill and you have been wondering whether your property is holding its value, the short answer is: houses are, condos are not. Here is the full picture so you can make a smart move - not a guesswork one.
We are seeing two very different stories playing out on the same streets right now.
Houses are holding steady. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $343,135, up a modest 0.30% from the previous period. That is not a fireworks show, but it is a market that is not flinching either. The 3-month moving average is $343,096, so we are essentially running flat - which, in today's environment, is actually a decent place to be. On the leaderboard, West Hill houses rank 3 out of 10 for growth among comparable Prince Albert neighbourhoods. That puts us in above-average territory. Not leading the pack, but solidly in the top tier.
Condos are a different conversation. The average HonestDoor Price has dropped to $216,378 - a 9.87% decrease from the previous period. That is a real dip, not a rounding error. The predicted market value is $240,083, but the 3-month moving average of $246,837 shows values have been sliding. The growth rank here is 7 out of 9 for comparable neighbourhoods - that puts West Hill condos in below-average territory right now.
For context, every nearby neighbourhood - Westflat, East Hill, and Nordale Hazeldell - is priced lower than West Hill houses. That tells us West Hill is still commanding a premium on the house side. On the condo side, Midtown is actually priced slightly higher at $227,339, which is worth noting if you are comparing options.
Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. It gets updated on a schedule, not in real time. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved on.
The HonestDoor Price is a live estimate. It is recalculated using current sales data, not whatever the city locked in during their last review cycle. For West Hill house owners, that means your property is likely worth more than your assessment suggests. For condo owners, it means the HonestDoor Price is already reflecting the recent softness - so you are getting an honest read, not a false sense of security.
If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just curious - the HonestDoor Price is the real-world check. Use it first.
If you own a house in West Hill, summer is not a bad time to test the market. Values are stable, we rank above average in the city for growth, and every nearby neighbourhood is cheaper - meaning buyers looking at West Hill are already accepting a higher price point. A rental yield of 5.91% also means investors are paying attention. That is competition for your listing.
If you own a condo, be honest with yourself. A nearly 10% drop in the HonestDoor Price is the market telling you something. That does not mean panic - it means price it right from day one. An overpriced condo in a softening segment sits. A well-priced one moves. The 4.28% rental yield still attracts buy-and-hold investors, so your buyer pool is not gone - it just needs the right number to act.
Either way, pull your HonestDoor Price before you call an agent. Walk into that conversation knowing your number, not guessing at it.
