If you live in Westney Heights and you haven't checked your HonestDoor Price lately, this is your nudge. The market here is moving - and not always in the direction you'd expect depending on whether you own a house or a condo.
Let's be straight with each other. Houses and condos in our neighbourhood are telling completely different stories right now, and it matters for your wallet.
Houses: If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs around Westney Heights, here's what's actually happening. The average sale price for houses sits at $865,000, while active listings are asking $1,249,000 on average. That gap is real. Buyers are paying about 97.68% of list price, which means sellers are coming down a little to close deals. That's a buyers' market doing its thing - not a crash, just a market that's taking a breather.
Thirteen days on market is actually pretty quick. Houses here are not sitting. The growth rank of 5 out of 12 puts us solidly in the upper half of Ajax neighbourhoods - that's a real positive when you're comparing us to the competition.
Condos: This is where we need to have a more honest conversation. Condo values in Westney Heights have shifted down 7.48% recently, and the predicted market value of $607,310 is sitting below the 3-month moving average of $635,318. That's a meaningful gap. On the Ajax neighbourhood leaderboard, our condos rank 11 out of 12 for growth. That's a number worth knowing, not ignoring.
The one bright spot for condo owners: the HonestDoor Price of $640,828 is still higher than nearby Riverside condos at $481,263. So we're not at the bottom of the pile across the board - just facing some short-term headwinds on growth.
Here's the thing about your city tax assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what sold on your street last month. It doesn't know that house prices in Westney Heights are sitting at $990,196 on average right now, or that condo values have shifted 7.48% recently. The government assessment is essentially a history book. The HonestDoor Price is today's newspaper.
For house owners, that 1.35% increase in HonestDoor Price is a real-world signal that demand hasn't disappeared. For condo owners, the 5.52% increase in HonestDoor Price over the previous period is worth noting - even if the short-term predicted value trend is softer. These are the numbers a buyer's agent is going to be working with at the table. You should know them too.
Checking your HonestDoor Price takes two minutes and gives you a live read on where you actually stand - not where you stood two years ago when the city last looked at your property.
If you own a house in Westney Heights and you're thinking about listing this summer, the timing has some real arguments in its favour. Homes are moving in 13 days on average. Buyers are paying close to list price. Your HonestDoor Price is trending up. The rental yield on houses sits at 4.72%, which means investors are paying attention to this neighbourhood too - and investor interest keeps demand healthy.
The honest advice: price it right from day one. The gap between average asking prices and average sale prices tells you that overpriced listings are getting corrected. Come in sharp and you'll move fast.
If you own a condo and you're weighing your options, the picture calls for more patience or more urgency depending on your situation. Values are under short-term pressure. If you need to sell, price competitively - buyers have options. If you can hold, the HonestDoor Price increase of 5.52% suggests the longer-term story isn't written yet.
Either way, the first step is the same: pull your HonestDoor Price today and know your real number before you make any moves.
