Windsor, Burnaby - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Windsor, Burnaby: Your Neighbour Just Got a Reality Check on Their Home Value

If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs in Windsor and wondering what your place is actually worth right now - not what the city thinks it was worth last year - here is the straight story. The market is taking a breather, but Windsor is still holding its own against most of Burnaby.

The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Windsor Right Now

Houses

We are sitting in solid territory for detached homes. The average sale price for houses in Windsor is $1,477,000, with price per square foot around $1,061. Only 3 houses sold recently, which is a thin slice of activity - but that is pretty typical for a neighbourhood where homes do not turn over fast.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $1,818,868
• Predicted market value: $1,828,220 - trending up from the 3-month average of $1,823,658
• Average assessed value: $1,913,022
• Price per square foot: $1,061
• Estimated monthly rent: $6,380
• Rental yield: 3.91%
• Recent value change: -0.34%
• Neighbourhood growth rank: 14 out of 36 in Burnaby - above average on the leaderboard
• Price rank: 14 out of 34 in Burnaby - above average

The predicted value is nudging upward, which is a good sign. Growth is slightly negative but Windsor is outranking more than half of Burnaby neighbourhoods. For us as homeowners here, that is a decent position to be in when the broader market is soft.

Condos

The condo picture is a bit more mixed. One sale closed at $650,000 - up 22% from last month - but one sale does not make a trend. Price per square foot is around $826, and the predicted market value of $586,571 is actually drifting slightly below the 3-month moving average of $588,076. That is a small dip, but worth watching.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $573,930
• Predicted market value: $586,571
• Average assessed value: $603,475
• Price per square foot: $826
• Estimated monthly rent: $2,817
• Rental yield: 3.71%
• Recent value change: +1.21%
• Neighbourhood growth rank: 18 out of 37 in Burnaby - above average on the leaderboard
• Price rank: 17 out of 26 in Burnaby - below average in price

Compared to nearby neighbourhoods, Windsor condos are actually priced below Kingsway-Beresford ($986,291 HonestDoor Price) and Clinton-Glenwood ($855,326). That makes Windsor one of the more accessible entry points for condo buyers in this pocket of Burnaby - which is something we do not always hear talked about.

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

Here is the thing about your BC Assessment notice. It reflects a snapshot from July 1 of the previous year. The market has moved since then - and in Windsor, it has moved down from those assessed highs.

For houses, the average assessed value is $1,913,022. The HonestDoor Price is $1,818,868. That is a gap of nearly $95,000 - or about 4.92% lower than what the city has on file. For condos, the assessed value is $603,475 while the HonestDoor Price sits at $573,930 - again, about 4.90% lower in real-world terms.

That gap is not just a number. It is the difference between pricing your home right on day one and sitting on the market for weeks wondering why nobody is biting. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time using actual transaction data. Your assessment does not. That is the real-world check you need before you make any move.

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

If you are a Windsor homeowner eyeing a summer sale, here is what the data is actually telling you.

• House sellers: Your HonestDoor Price of $1,818,868 is your realistic anchor. Do not let an inflated assessment of $1,913,022 push you into overpricing. Buyers are doing their homework.
• Condo sellers: Activity is thin - one sale in the recent period. But that $650,000 sale price and a 1.21% recent value uptick suggest there is buyer interest when the price is right.
• Windsor ranks 2nd in Burnaby for total transactions - meaning this neighbourhood moves product when conditions line up.
• Rental demand is real. Houses are pulling $6,380 per month in estimated rent. If selling is not the plan, holding and renting is a legitimate strategy with a 3.91% yield.
• Nearby neighbourhoods like Oakalle and Clinton-Glenwood are cheaper on the HonestDoor scale - so Windsor still carries a premium. That premium needs to be justified with smart pricing, not wishful thinking.

Bottom line - Windsor is not in trouble. It is just in a market that rewards honest pricing over hopeful pricing. Check your HonestDoor Price, compare it to your assessment, and go in with clear eyes. That is how you win this summer.
