Westboro, Ottawa - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Westboro Real Talk: Two Very Different Stories Under One Roof

If you own property in Westboro right now, the story depends entirely on what type of property you have. Houses and condos are moving in opposite directions - and knowing which side you are on could change your summer plans completely.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos

Let us start with houses. The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Westboro sits at $1,290,364, and it has dipped 2.35% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average is $1,332,482, and the current predicted value of $1,321,461 is tracking below that. The market is taking a breather. On the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, Westboro houses rank 83 out of 102 Ottawa neighbourhoods. That is bottom-tier territory, and we should not sugarcoat it.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Houses): $1,290,364
• Recent price change: -1.35%
• 3-month moving average: $1,332,482
• Estimated rent: $5,065 per month
• Rental yield: 4.35%
• Growth rank: 83 out of 102 Ottawa neighbourhoods
• Airbnb rank in Ottawa: 5th

Condos are a completely different conversation. The average HonestDoor Price for a Westboro condo is $988,383 - up 3.55% from the previous period. The predicted value of $954,463 is rising above the 3-month moving average of $874,525. That is real upward momentum. On the leaderboard, Westboro condos rank 18 out of 104 Ottawa neighbourhoods. That puts us firmly in the top tier of the city.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Condos): $988,383
• Recent price change: +8.61%
• 3-month moving average: $874,525
• Estimated rent: $3,815 per month
• Rental yield: 3.37%
• Growth rank: 18 out of 104 Ottawa neighbourhoods
• Airbnb rank in Ottawa: 9th

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

Here is the thing about your city assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. The city looks at sale data from a fixed point in time and applies it broadly. It does not know that Westboro condos just posted an 8.61% jump. It does not know that house values are softening against a 3-month trend. Your tax assessment is essentially a history book. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from current market signals to give you an actual number you could act on today.

If you are a condo owner, your city assessment is almost certainly lagging behind what your unit is actually worth right now. If you own a house, the HonestDoor Price gives you an honest read on where things stand - without the false comfort of a stale government number.

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

For condo owners, the timing conversation is real. A growth rank of 18 out of 104 means we are outperforming most of Ottawa right now. Buyers looking at Westboro condos are competing in a market that is moving up. If you have been sitting on the fence, this is the kind of data that should get you off it - at least to have the conversation.

For house owners, summer 2025 calls for a clear-eyed approach. A rank of 83 out of 102 and a price trend sitting below the 3-month average means you are not in a rush-and-get-top-dollar moment. That does not mean do not sell - it means price it right from day one. Overpricing a softening market is the fastest way to sit on a listing through August.

One number worth keeping in your back pocket - Westboro houses rank 5th in all of Ottawa for Airbnb income potential, with an estimate of $247 per night. If a sale is not the move right now, short-term rental income is a legitimate option worth running the numbers on.

Bottom line - check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It is the real-world number, not the government's best guess from two years ago.
