Cranston Community Reviews & Ratings

If you have been eyeing your property assessment and feeling pretty good about it, pump the brakes for a second. The city's number and what buyers are actually paying are two different stories in Cranston right now - and the gap matters for your wallet. The Vibe: Houses vs. Condos in Cranston Let's break down what's happening on our streets, because houses and condos are telling two very different stories this month. Houses - Still the Heavyweight, But Taking a Breather Average sale price: $757,341 - down 3.4% from last month Active listings averaging: $773,145 Price per square foot: $407 Homes selling at 98.11% of list price - buyers are negotiating, and winning 22 homes sold this month, sitting on market an average of 31 days HonestDoor Price: $768,341 - down 0.08% from last period Rental estimate: $3,449 per month with a 5.15% yield 310 total transactions in 2026 - ranked #1 in all of Calgary for transaction volume That #1 transaction rank is the headline nobody is talking about. More homes change hands in Cranston than anywhere else in Calgary. That means real, consistent demand - even when prices dip. The 3-month moving average for predicted value sits at $774,519, and we are currently trending below that at $768,930. Not a freefall - just a cooling stretch. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, our house growth ranks 173 out of 236 Calgary neighbourhoods. Below average, yes. But with the highest transaction volume in the city, buyers are still choosing us. Condos - A Smaller Market, Worth Watching Closely Average sale price: $318,333 - down 13.3% from last month Active listings averaging: $326,267 Price per square foot: $358 Condos selling at 97.37% of list price - buyers have room to negotiate Only 3 condos sold this month - down 25% from last month Average days on market: 25 days HonestDoor Price: $356,244 - down 1.45% from last period Rental estimate: $1,872 per month with a 4.09% yield Three sales is a thin sample, so take the 13.3% monthly price drop with some context - a single outlier sale can swing that number hard. What matters more is the HonestDoor predicted value of $361,477, which is holding steadier than the raw sales data suggests. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, our condo growth ranks 87 out of 216 Calgary neighbourhoods - that puts us in above-average territory for condos, which is a better story than the month-over-month sales numbers imply. Days on market rank is 22 out of 72, meaning our condos move reasonably fast compared to the rest of the city. The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Is the Number That Actually Matters Right Now Here is the thing about your city assessment. It was calculated months ago, using data that is even older than that. It does not know what happened on your street last Tuesday. The average assessed value for houses in Cranston sits at $781,631 - but the HonestDoor Price is $768,341. That is a $13,290 gap. For condos, the assessed value is $371,117 while the HonestDoor Price is $356,244 - a $14,873 difference. That gap is not a glitch. It is the market telling you something the assessment cannot. If you are pricing a home to sell, listing at the assessed value could mean sitting on the market longer than you need to. The HonestDoor Price updates in real time, pulling from actual transaction data - including those 310 house sales already recorded in Cranston this year. It is the real-world check against a static government number.
