Westwood, Edmonton - September 2026 Real Estate Report

Westwood, Edmonton: Your House Is Worth More Than the City Thinks

If you own a home in Westwood and you have not checked your HonestDoor Price lately, now is the time. The city's assessment is one number. The real world is a different story - and right now, that gap is worth thousands of dollars to you.

The Vibe: What Is Actually Happening in Westwood Right Now

Westwood is a neighbourhood that is holding its own. We have 487 assessed properties and 33 transactions recorded in 2026. The market is taking a breather, but it is not falling apart. Here is how houses and condos are playing out differently for us right now.

Houses: A Buyer's Window, But Not a Fire Sale

If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs on the streets here, here is what is actually happening. House prices are cooling. The average sale price sits at $431,250 this month, down 18.6% from last month. That sounds alarming, but context matters - listings are averaging $477,400, and homes are selling at 96.37% of list price. Buyers are getting small discounts, not stealing properties.

The bigger signal is days on market. Houses are sitting for an average of 100 days before selling. That is slow. It means sellers need to price sharp and present well to compete. Westwood houses rank 88 out of 112 Edmonton neighbourhoods for days on market - that is a slower-selling pocket of the city right now.

• Average sale price: $431,250
• Average list price: $477,400
• Sale-to-list ratio: 96.37%
• Average days on market: 100 days
• Price per square foot: $251
• Predicted market value (HonestDoor): $467,509
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,279
• Rental yield: 5.71%
• Growth rank: 207 out of 291 Edmonton neighbourhoods

That 5.71% rental yield is genuinely strong. If you are not living in your Westwood house and you are thinking about what to do with it, renting it out is not a bad play while you wait for the market to find its footing.

Condos: Cheap to Buy, Slow to Sell, But Growing Fast

The condo picture in Westwood is a bit unusual. The average sale price is $106,027 - one of the most affordable condo price points in Edmonton, ranking 210 out of 216 neighbourhoods. But here is the twist: the HonestDoor predicted market value for condos is $1,039,927, and that number is climbing against a 3-month moving average of $1,031,002. The growth rank for Westwood condos is 28 out of 302 Edmonton neighbourhoods. That puts us in the top tier for condo value growth in the city.

The catch is patience. Condos are averaging 176 days on market - ranking 102 out of 112 Edmonton neighbourhoods for speed of sale. These units are not flying off the shelf. But for a buyer or investor willing to wait, the rental potential is hard to ignore.

• Average sale price: $106,027
• Price per square foot: $153
• Sale-to-list ratio: 97.56%
• Average days on market: 176 days
• Predicted market value (HonestDoor): $1,039,927
• Estimated monthly rent: $3,593
• Rental yield: 3.25%
• Airbnb estimate: $177 per night
• Airbnb rank in Edmonton: 28 out of all neighbourhoods
• Growth rank: 28 out of 302 Edmonton neighbourhoods

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

Here is the thing about your city assessment. It is calculated once a year using data that is already months old by the time it lands in your mailbox. For houses in Westwood, the average assessed value is $419,607. The average HonestDoor Price is $457,479. That is a $37,872 gap - and that gap represents real money if you are making decisions about selling, refinancing, or even just understanding what you actually own.

For condos, the gap is even more striking. The average assessed value is $235,029. The HonestDoor Price is $1,021,147. The assessment is a static snapshot. The HonestDoor Price is a real-time read on what the market is actually doing with your property today.

Westwood's HonestDoor Price for houses sits 9.03% above the average assessed value in Edmonton. That is not a small rounding error. That is the difference between underpricing your home and walking away with what it is actually worth.

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

Honest answer: the house market in Westwood is not red-hot right now. Prices are down month over month, homes are taking longer to sell, and buyers have a bit of leverage. But "cooling" does not mean "bad time to sell." It means you need a strategy.

Here is what the numbers are telling us for anyone thinking about listing this summer.

• Price it right from day one. Homes are selling at 96.37% of list price - overpricing just adds weeks to your days on market, and 100 days is already a long haul.
• Use your HonestDoor Price as your anchor, not your tax assessment. The $457,479 average HonestDoor Price for houses is the real-world check on what buyers are actually paying in this neighbourhood.
• Westwood still beats nearby competition. Compared to Delton ($334,734), Alberta Avenue ($294,344), and Spruce Avenue ($448,967), Westwood houses hold a strong position. All three nearby neighbourhoods are cheaper and growing slower.
• If your timeline is flexible, the rental yield of 5.71% on houses means holding and renting is a legitimate alternative to a rushed sale.

Neighbourhood growth is 0.13% year over year - modest, but steady. Westwood is not booming, but it is not sliding either. For sellers who price smart and present well, there are buyers out here. They just have a few more options than they did a year ago.

Check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It takes two minutes and it is the most current number you will find on what your Westwood property is actually worth today.
