Selling Your Burnaby Home for Maximum Value.

Burnaby's August 2026 market is showing a clear two-speed story: Burnaby North townhouses are the one segment bucking the trend with a slight month-over-month gain, while detached homes across all three zones are seeing deeper year-over-year corrections. Condo volume in North and South remains the market's engine.

Burnaby North remains the most active zone by volume — 70 condo sales in August anchored by Brentwood Park and Sullivan Heights, plus 11 townhouse sales. The North townhouse benchmark edged up slightly month-over-month to $888,200, making it one of the few segments showing any positive movement in the current market. Detached homes in North took an average of 85 days to sell in August — a signal that buyers in this price range are doing their homework and taking their time.

Burnaby South continues to hold the city's highest detached benchmark at $1,887,800. With 75 condo sales in August — up slightly year-over-year — South remains the condo volume leader, driven by Metrotown and Highgate. The South townhouse benchmark also ticked up month-over-month to $933,600, a positive data point in an otherwise softening environment. Sellers here who price correctly are still finding results, particularly in the condo segment.

Burnaby East is the smallest market by volume but showed a notable rebound in detached sales this month — 10 sales at just 27 days on market, suggesting that correctly priced East Burnaby detached homes are finding buyers quickly. The zone's condo and townhouse segments remain quieter, reflecting its more limited inventory relative to North and South.
