The asking price is a long way from the assessment. That usually means the home has changed since the July 1 valuation date (a renovation, a new build, a subdivision), so we don't rate this one.

2026 assessment: $322,000 · asking is +39%
Est. market value: $326,378houses on Vancouver Island sold at a median +1.4% vs assessment this past year (75 sales)
