Highgate real estate: your questions answered

How many homes are for sale in Highgate?

At the end of October 2026 the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® figures showed 5 houses and 61 condos and townhomes listed in Highgate. Those are month-end counts and they move daily, so ask Jared for a current list.

Is Highgate a buyers’ or sellers’ market?

In October 2026, houses had a sales ratio of 20% on only 5 listed, too few to read as a market type; condos and townhomes had 18% (a balanced market). The sales ratio is homes sold divided by homes listed; on the reports’ scale under 12% favours buyers, 12% to 20% is balanced and over 20% favours sellers. One month in one community is a small sample, so look at the monthly table above before you decide.

How many homes sold in Highgate from June to October 2026?

7 houses and 62 condos and townhomes sold in Highgate over those 5 months; detached houses peaked in June with 3 sold and condos and townhomes peaked in July with 16 sold.

How big is Highgate compared with the rest of Burnaby?

In October 2026, Highgate held 1.2% of the 430 detached houses listed in Burnaby and 4.7% of the 1,309 condos and townhomes listed in Burnaby.

What mix of houses and condos is for sale in Highgate?

In October 2026, houses made up 7.6% of the 66 homes listed in Highgate and condos and townhomes made up 92.4%; of the 12 that sold, houses were 8.3% and condos and townhomes 91.7%.

Are there more or fewer homes for sale in Highgate than in June?

Listings of detached houses fell from 7 in June to 5 in October 2026 (−28.6%); condos and townhomes fell from 85 in June to 61 in October 2026 (−28.2%).

Is Highgate the same place as Edmonds?

Highgate is the node inside Edmonds, centred on Kingsway at Edmonds Street. The City plans the wider area through the Edmonds Community Plan, adopted in March 2025, and its mapping treats the Kingsway and Edmonds intersection, Highgate Village and the blocks west of Edmonds Station as the existing height cluster. A Highgate address is therefore planned as town-centre land, not as a quiet single-family pocket.

What is happening to the Hall Towers across Kingsway?

They are planned for replacement, not simple renovation. The City and BC Housing's conceptual master plan covers the 4.5-acre publicly owned site at the southwest corner of Kingsway and Edmonds, replaces the 331 Hall Towers units without displacing tenants, and proposes over 1,400 purpose-built rental units plus approximately 1,000 market strata units. It received second reading on June 5, 2023 and is under review to align with the new OCP.

Which secondary school serves this side of Edmonds?

Byrne Creek Community Secondary, Grades 8 to 12, at 7777 18th Street, is the School District No. 41 (Burnaby) secondary school in the Edmonds area, and Byrne Creek Community School is the district's community school.

Will the plan change what can be built on my block?

Yes, that is the plan's purpose. The Edmonds Community Plan, adopted in March 2025 after a process launched in 2023 with three phases of public consultation, will manage growth in Edmonds over the next several decades. Blocks near the Town Centre node carry the plan's highest-intensity designations, while the plan phases change over decades, so a buyer should read the designation for the specific lot, not the headline.

What did condos in Highgate sell for?

From November 2025 to late October 2026, Highgate recorded 95 condo sales at a median of $614,800.

How long do condos take to sell in Highgate?

Half sold in 29 days or less, at a median 97.1% of the last list price; 5% went over asking (sales from November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026).

More Burnaby real estate

Highgate by home type

Highgate: streets and boundaries

  • Highgate is the Kingsway and Edmonds Street node of Burnaby's Edmonds Town Centre, not a separate municipality plan area: the City's Edmonds Community Plan, adopted in March 2025, governs this pocket of southeast Burnaby.
  • The plan's own height mapping names the pocket's anchors: existing height is concentrated around the Kingsway and Edmonds Street intersection, Highgate Village, and west of the Edmonds SkyTrain station.
  • Hall Avenue, Salisbury Avenue and Edmonds Street frame the residential blocks behind the Kingsway frontage, with the Tommy Douglas Library branch and Edmonds Community Centre shown on the plan map beside Kingsway.

Highgate: the housing stock

  • The defining existing buildings are the Hall Towers: the City states the Kingsway and Edmonds master plan replaces the aging British Columbia Housing (BC Housing) Hall Towers apartment buildings, which hold 331 units, without displacing tenants.

Highgate: rules that affect buyers

  • The Edmonds Community Plan is the rulebook that matters most here: adopted in March 2025, it sets the land-use and height framework for the Town Centre node at Kingsway and Edmonds, the highest-intensity node in Edmonds.
  • Redevelopment beside the node runs into tenant-protection rules: the City's development projects page states a Development Permit (DP) can be required to meet standards for design, environmental protection and tenant protection in areas set out in the Official Community Plan (OCP).

Highgate: local details a buyer would not know

  • The civic cluster is part of the neighbourhood's daily life: the plan map places the Tommy Douglas Library and the Edmonds Community Centre on Kingsway at the node, beside Burnaby South Memorial Park.
  • Byrne Creek runs just south of the node: the Byrne Creek Streamkeepers describe the creek draining a large urban watershed along Burnaby's south slope, through a ravine park and spawning habitat, to the Fraser River, with returning coho salmon, chum salmon and cutthroat trout.
  • The master-plan site is four separate publicly owned properties, not one lot: the City states the 4.5-acre Kingsway and Edmonds site is comprised of four properties identified for higher-intensity development.

Highgate: development and new projects

  • Kingsway + Edmonds Conceptual Master Plan, southwest corner of Kingsway and Edmonds Street, City of Burnaby and BC Housing, mixed-use rental and strata housing: 4.5 acres, over 1,400 purpose-built rental units and approximately 1,000 market strata units, replacing the 331-unit Hall Towers — status: public hearing held May 30, 2023, second reading June 5, 2023, currently under review to align with the new Official Community Plan (as of November 3, 2026).
  • Edmonds Community Plan, Edmonds Town Centre including the Highgate node, City of Burnaby, community plan: launched 2023, three consultation phases — status: adopted March 2025 (as of November 3, 2026).
  • Edmonds Town Centre Cycling Network, Edmonds Town Centre, City of Burnaby, cycling infrastructure: part of the Priority Cycling Network in Burnaby's Transportation Plan, Connecting Burnaby — status: in progress on the City's projects list (as of November 3, 2026).

Highgate: costs and taxes

  • The City's 2026 utility table prices a multiple-family dwelling at $374.54 for water and $436.00 for sewer use, the rate class most Highgate apartment homes fall under, before the 5% discount for payment by the due date.

Highgate: getting around

  • Edmonds Station is the pocket's rapid-transit anchor: the Edmonds plan mapping places the station west of the Kingsway and Edmonds node, and the plan treats the blocks west of the station as part of the existing height cluster.
  • Route 148 is the local loop tying this side of Edmonds to two stations: TransLink's timetable runs it from Royal Oak Station via Rumble Street, Nelson Avenue, Marine Drive and Gilley Avenue to Edmonds Station, and back via Griffiths Drive and 18th Avenue.
  • Kingsway is the front door: the City describes the master-plan site as publicly owned land at the southwest corner of Kingsway and Edmonds, in the heart of the Edmonds Town Centre, so Kingsway frontage, not a side street, is the node's address.

Highgate: risks and due diligence

  • Check streamside rules on any lot draining toward Byrne Creek: Burnaby's Streamside Protection and Enhancement Area (SPEA) guidelines apply to parcels with a stream or within 30 metres of the top of bank of a stream.
  • Check tenant-protection exposure before buying an older rental building near the node: City Development Permits can carry tenant-protection standards in Official Community Plan areas, and the Hall Towers replacement is being advanced on a no-displacement basis.
  • Check the Edmonds Community Plan designation for the specific lot: node-adjacent lots carry future high-rise designations, which cuts both ways — redevelopment potential and years of construction beside the home.
