Where does your home sit in today’s Edmonton market?

Your tax assessment is a year old and has never seen your kitchen. Start with your address: we pull the City of Edmonton record, you tell us what the City can’t see, and the range updates live as you go.

The full report

The range on screen is the start. The report is the argument behind it.

The number above comes from public records and your answers. The report re-runs it against what actually sold near you and what you’d be competing with today — then shows its work, so you can price from evidence instead of a feeling.

  • Three ways to enter the market. What pricing at, above and below the range is likely to cost you in time and in dollars.
  • What sold, adjusted to your home. Every comparable corrected for size, age, baths, lot, parking and basement — with the adjustment shown, not hidden.
  • Who you’re up against right now. Live MLS® competition, their asking $/sqft, and how long they’ve been sitting.
  • Your assessed value, year by year. A decade of the City’s own record for your address.
  • What’s being built and renovated around you. Permits, new stock, schools and parks from City open data.
  • How the range was calculated. The method in full — no black box, and nothing you can’t check.

How the engine works

A range built from evidence, then checked by someone who sells here.

  1. 01

    Your City record

    Year built, lot, building area, zoning and a decade of assessed values, matched the moment you pick your address.

  2. 02

    What the City can’t see

    Condition, renovations, basement, the suite, backing onto the ravine. The things that separate two “identical” houses by $60,000.

  3. 03

    Measured against real sales

    Sold comparables adjusted to your home for size, age, baths, lot, parking and basement, weighted so the closest matches count most.

  4. 04

    Reviewed by Ryan

    Character homes, infills and luxury rarely have a clean comp. Ryan reads the report before you price from it.

Questions

Common questions about your home’s value

How accurate is the online range?

The first range uses only the City’s record for your address and your answers about the home. No sold comparable has been read yet, so it is rounded and deliberately wide, about 7% either side. The full report re-runs it against sold homes adjusted to yours and the listings you would compete with today, and the range usually narrows.

Is this an appraisal?

No. It is a competitive positioning range: where your home is likely to sit against what has sold and what is listed now. It is not an appraisal, a comparative market analysis or an opinion of value.

Why is my home’s value different from my property tax assessment?

The City assesses every property from the outside and from records, and its figure trails the market by about a year. It cannot see a new kitchen, a finished basement, a suite or a home that needs work. The range starts from the assessment and adjusts for what the City cannot see.

What does the full report include?

Three ways to price the home and what each is likely to cost in time and money, the sold comparables adjusted to your home with every adjustment shown, the listings you would compete with and their asking price per square foot, ten years of the City’s assessments for your address, and the method in full. See a sample report.

Does it cost anything, or commit me to listing?

No. The report is free, shown on screen and emailed to you, and it comes with no listing agreement.

Which homes does it cover?

Residential addresses in the City of Edmonton, because the range starts from the City’s assessment record. For a home in St. Albert, Sherwood Park or another town nearby, ask Ryan for a report prepared by hand.
