Compare two BC neighbourhoods.
Pick any two Metro Vancouver neighbourhoods and see what is actually listed there right now — asking prices, how long inventory is sitting, walkability and schools, side by side.
Brentwood
A SkyTrain-anchored Burnaby growth node where rapid densification, presale supply, and rental demand drive condo-market pricing.
New Westminster
A SkyTrain-served entry point with heritage downtown character, active strata redevelopment, and stronger yield potential than many Vancouver alternatives.
✓ = better on that metric for most buyers. Prices are the median asking price of active listings around each neighbourhood centroid — not sold prices, and sensitive to the local mix of condos and houses, which is why $/sqft is the fairer comparison. Days listed counts time on market for listings that are still available, so it reads longer than days-on-market at sale. Walkability is Walk Score®. Not an appraisal — verify with a current MLS® search and a licensed REALTOR®.
What each metric means
- Median asking price — the midpoint of what is listed within the stated radius today. It is not a sold price, and it moves with the mix: a neighbourhood of mostly condos will read lower than one of mostly houses.
- Median $/sqft — the fairer cross-neighbourhood comparison, because it is far less sensitive to that mix.
- Median days listed — how long current listings have been on market. It runs longer than days-on-market-at-sale, because the listings still sitting there are exactly the ones that haven't sold.
- Walk Score® — 0–100 walkability from Walk Score®, measured at the neighbourhood centroid.
- Schools — Catchment schools near the neighbourhood centre.
What this doesn't replace
- Sold comparables — these figures describe what is asked, not what has traded.
- School catchment verification (boundaries shift).
- Strata document review — see the Strata Analyzer.
- A consult with Moji to discuss fit for your budget and goals.
Buyers and developers struggle to compare neighbourhoods objectively — the data is fragmented and anecdotes fill the gaps.
