Westmount, West Vancouver - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Westmount, West Vancouver: Your Home Is Worth Way More Than the City Thinks

If you have been glancing at your property assessment and feeling underwhelmed, you are not alone. The gap between what the government says your Westmount home is worth and what it would actually sell for right now is not a rounding error - it is nearly half a million dollars on the low end, and much more for houses. Here is the real picture.

The Vibe: What Is Actually Happening in Westmount Right Now

Westmount is taking a breather. Neighbourhood growth is down a modest 0.03% year over year, and we are not seeing a flood of transactions - just 5 recorded in 2026 so far across 474 assessed properties. That low volume is actually pretty typical for a pocket like ours. When prices are this high, fewer people move, and every single sale carries serious weight.

The honest read? Westmount is not crashing. It is just quiet. And quiet in West Vancouver's second-highest assessed neighbourhood is still a very strong place to be.

Houses: Still the Heavy Hitters

Let us talk houses, because the numbers here are striking.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $4,706,561
• Average assessed value: $3,228,620 - that is a $1,477,941 gap
• Recent sale average: $7,000,000 (essentially unchanged)
• Price per square foot: $1,473
• Predicted market value: $4,771,147
• 3-month moving average: $4,800,953 (values are easing slightly)
• Estimated monthly rent: $12,206
• Rental yield: 2.94%
• Airbnb potential: $603 per night
• Growth rank: 11 out of 26 neighbourhoods in West Vancouver - above average
• Price rank: 6 out of 26 - well above average

One house sold recently, which keeps the data tight. But that $7,000,000 average sale price tells you what buyers are actually willing to pay when a great Westmount property hits the market. The HonestDoor Price of $4,771,147 reflects the broader pool of homes here - not just the ones that traded hands. The slight dip from the 3-month moving average of $4,800,953 is worth watching, but we are talking about a 0.16% move. Not a trend. Not a panic signal.

Condos: The Quiet Outperformer

Here is something we do not talk about enough - Westmount condos are actually moving in the right direction right now.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $723,840 - up 3.70% from the previous period
• Predicted market value: $697,984
• 3-month moving average: $690,544 (values are climbing)
• Recent value change: up 4.83%
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,263
• Rental yield: 3.48%
• Airbnb potential: $166 per night
• Growth rank: 3 out of 19 neighbourhoods in West Vancouver - top performers

A growth rank of 3 out of 19 is not a small thing. That puts Westmount condos in the top tier of West Vancouver right now. The predicted value is climbing above the 3-month average, which means momentum is building - not fading. For condo owners here, this is a genuinely good moment to know your number.

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

Your BC Assessment is a snapshot taken on July 1 of the previous year. By the time it lands in your mailbox, it is already 6 to 18 months out of date. In a neighbourhood like Westmount, that lag is expensive.

The average assessed value here sits at $3,228,620. The average HonestDoor Price is $4,706,561. That is 45.78% higher. If you are making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, estate planning, even just knowing your net worth - using the assessed value is like navigating with an old map. The HonestDoor Price pulls from real-time market data and updates continuously. It is the number that reflects what a buyer would actually write a cheque for today.

Westmount also ranks 2nd in West Vancouver for average assessed value. That means we are already in rarefied territory - and the HonestDoor Price confirms the real-world premium goes even further than the city's numbers suggest.

The Neighbourhood Leaderboard: How We Stack Up

It helps to know where Westmount sits relative to the neighbours.

• West Bay: HonestDoor Price $4,944,230, rental $12,159, growth -0.04% - slightly pricier, growing a touch slower
• Sandy Cove: HonestDoor Price $7,147,615, rental $15,378 - significantly higher priced, growth data not available
• Altamont: HonestDoor Price $3,442,872, rental $10,225, growth -0.04% - more affordable, also growing slower

Westmount sits in a comfortable middle ground - more accessible than Sandy Cove, stronger priced than Altamont, and holding its own against West Bay. For buyers priced out of Sandy Cove, Westmount is often the next call they make.

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

Here is the straight talk for anyone considering a move before fall.

Transaction volume is low - only 5 sales in 2026 so far. That cuts both ways. There is less competition from other sellers, which means a well-priced, well-presented Westmount home gets real attention. But buyers at this price point are patient and informed. They will not overpay for something that is not dialled in.

House values are easing slightly off their 3-month peak. That is not a reason to panic, but it is a reason not to wait indefinitely. If you have been sitting on the fence, the window of peak pricing may be narrowing. Getting your HonestDoor Price now gives you a real baseline - not a number from last July - so you can make a decision based on what the market is actually doing.

For condo owners, the story is even more straightforward. Values are up 4.83% recently, momentum is positive, and a growth rank of 3 out of 19 means you are in a strong position. Summer inventory tends to be thin in West Vancouver. That works in your favour.

Bottom line - Westmount is not a neighbourhood you sell on impulse. But if the timing is right for you, the data says the market is still very much in your corner. Check your HonestDoor Price first. Then have the conversation.
