North Burnaby, South Burnaby, Metrotown, and Brentwood all attract different buyers — and demand different strategies. Local intelligence is everything.
Burnaby's most desirable detached neighbourhood. Sweeping views of the Fraser River and beyond, large lots, and proximity to Deer Lake Park drive premium prices. Buyers here are typically upgraders from within Burnaby or relocating from Vancouver's Westside.
Avg. Detached: $1.8M–$2.6M rangeTransformed by The Amazing Brentwood development, this area now attracts a younger professional buyer base. Condos and townhouses absorb quickly — especially those within walking distance of Brentwood Town Centre SkyTrain. Strong investor appeal too.
Avg. Condo: $700K–$950K rangeThe densest, most transit-accessible part of Burnaby. Condos here benefit from incredible walkability scores, SkyTrain access, and proximity to Metropolis. Buyers range from first-time purchasers to investors. Marketing needs to lead with the lifestyle, not just the square footage.
Avg. Condo: $650K–$880K rangeCharacter homes, walkable high street on Hastings, and a strong community identity attract young families and buyers seeking a neighbourhood feel. Older homes here often present renovation upside that savvy buyers are actively seeking.
Avg. Detached: $1.4M–$1.9M rangeA unique community with a strong university-town character. Townhomes and condos here appeal to faculty, professionals, and buyers who value the elevated setting and trail access. The UniverCity development continues to add new inventory and activate the area.
Avg. Townhouse: $950K–$1.3M rangeOne of Burnaby's most affordable detached markets — and one of the most active for buyers priced out of South Slope or North Burnaby. Investors are also active here given the proximity to New Westminster and ongoing densification along the Edmonds corridor.
Avg. Detached: $1.3M–$1.65M rangeRE/MAX Heights Realty is based at 4370 Dominion Street in Burnaby. This isn't a market Juliana visits — it's the market she operates in every single day. That means current, granular knowledge of what's selling, what's sitting, and what buyers in each Burnaby neighbourhood are actually willing to pay.
Burnaby is also one of the most diverse real estate markets in Metro Vancouver — from million-dollar South Slope detached homes to Metrotown condos to Brentwood new builds. Each segment has a distinct buyer pool, a distinct marketing approach, and a distinct pricing strategy. Juliana knows how to navigate all of them.
For sellers, that local depth means a more accurate evaluation, faster market positioning, and better results at the negotiating table.

Burnaby pricing varies street by street in some neighbourhoods. Your evaluation uses Burnaby-specific sold data — not Metro Vancouver averages — so your list price is accurate from day one.
The condo market in central Burnaby moves differently than detached. Juliana understands strata bylaws, depreciation reports, and the specific features — views, floor level, parking — that drive buyer decisions in these buildings.
South Slope and North Burnaby detached homes with views or oversized lots command measurable premiums — but only when marketed correctly. Juliana ensures those features are front and centre in every listing.
Burnaby has significant land assembly and development activity. If your property has redevelopment potential, that needs to be communicated through the right channels — not just MLS®. Juliana knows who those buyers are.
Demand varies significantly by building, area, and price point. Brentwood and Metrotown condos near SkyTrain continue to attract strong buyer interest, particularly from first-time buyers and investors. Pricing correctly for your specific building and floor plan is critical — a unit on floor 3 and floor 23 in the same building can sell very differently. Your evaluation will reflect exactly what's moving in your building right now.
Not necessarily. Older homes in established Burnaby neighbourhoods often sit on larger lots, and those lots are what buyers — including developers — are actually purchasing. Land value can be the dominant factor in your home's price, particularly in areas with active rezoning. We price and position your home for the buyer most likely to see the full value of what you're selling.
Burnaby has some of the most active land assembly activity in Metro Vancouver, particularly along transit corridors and in areas designated for higher-density development under Burnaby's Official Community Plan. If your property is in one of these zones, you may have significant additional value that a standard MLS® listing won't capture. This is a conversation worth having before you list anywhere.
Strata sales involve additional documentation — Form B information certificates, depreciation reports, strata meeting minutes, and bylaws. Buyers will review all of this during their subject period. Being prepared with clean, current strata documents speeds up the process and avoids subject-removal delays. Juliana walks you through everything you'll need before you list.
The Amazing Brentwood has elevated the entire neighbourhood profile — new retail, improved streetscape, and increased foot traffic all contribute positively. For existing condo sellers, this is a story to tell buyers: you're not just selling a unit, you're selling into a neighbourhood that continues to improve. That positioning matters and it's part of every Brentwood listing strategy.
Free, no-obligation evaluation specific to your neighbourhood, property type, and current Burnaby market conditions. Honest numbers. No pressure.
