Suncrest real estate: your questions answered

How many homes are for sale in Suncrest?

At the end of October 2026 the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® figures showed 3 houses listed in Suncrest. Those are month-end counts and they move daily, so ask Jared for a current list.

Is Suncrest a buyers’ or sellers’ market?

In October 2026, houses had a sales ratio of 33% on only 3 listed, too few to read as a market type. 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 Suncrest from June to October 2026?

6 houses and 0 condos and townhomes sold in Suncrest over those 5 months; detached houses peaked in June with 3 sold.

How big is Suncrest compared with the rest of Burnaby?

In October 2026, Suncrest held 0.7% of the 430 detached houses listed in Burnaby.

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

Listings of detached houses fell from 4 in June to 3 in October 2026 (−25.0%).

How many homes can I build on a Suncrest lot now?

Three to six units, set by lot size and transit proximity under the R1 SSMUH District. The City's BurnabyMap layer "Maximum SSMUH Residential Units Per Legal Lot" gives the count for the specific lot, and it counts every unit, including a secondary suite. Lots of 281 square metres or more inside a Frequent Transit Network Area can reach six units, with off-street parking optional there.

Is the 146 bus a real service or a shuttle that might vanish?

It is a scheduled TransLink loop, effective June 8, 2026: from Metrotown Station via Patterson Avenue and Marine Drive to Greenall Avenue, returning via Joffre Avenue and Rumble Street. The timetable shows roughly half-hourly daytime departures. It is the only route that runs on Suncrest's own streets, so a car-free buyer should test the walk to the Rumble Street stops.

Which secondary school does a Rumble Street home feed?

Burnaby South Secondary stands at 5455 Rumble Street, at this area's northeast corner, and is the South Slope side's secondary school. Catchment is still set by civic address in SD41's School Locator, and streets at Suncrest's Patterson Avenue edge should be checked individually rather than assumed, because the school building's presence on Rumble Street does not draw the catchment line.

Can I stratify and sell the units of a Suncrest multiplex separately?

Partly. The City states R1 lots with two or more primary dwelling units are eligible for stratification, but a secondary suite must remain on the same title as its primary unit, and fee-simple rowhouse units are not eligible for stratification. Purpose-built rental also cannot be strata-converted, except duplex or semi-detached units. Design the project around those lines before pricing it.

What did houses in Suncrest sell for?

11 houses sold in Suncrest from November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026, at a median price of $1,550,000.

How long do houses take to sell in Suncrest?

Typical time on the market was 38 days. At the median, sale prices were 95.8% of list, and 0% of sales closed above list (November 1, 2025 to October 22, 2026).

Suncrest by home type

Suncrest: streets and boundaries

  • Rumble Street is Suncrest's spine: TransLink's 146 "Metrotown Station / Suncrest" loop turns through the area on Rumble Street between Joffre Avenue and Patterson Avenue, which is the clearest official trace of the neighbourhood's extent.
  • Suncrest sits below Metrotown on the Rumble Street grid; the City's current park project at Lewarne Park, on Macpherson Avenue at Rumble Street, sits on the neighbourhood's eastern seam in the Royal Oak community the City names for that project.
  • Burnaby South Secondary, the area's secondary school, stands at 5455 Rumble Street at the neighbourhood's northeast corner.
  • Clinton Elementary, at 5858 Clinton Street, is the SD41 elementary school on the area's south side.

Suncrest: the housing stock

  • The stock is detached houses on the Rumble Street grid — Patterson Avenue, Joffre Avenue, Greenall Avenue and Clinton Street — with no strata complex anchoring the area. The one named multi-unit influence is external: Metrotown's towers one bus ride north on Patterson Avenue.
  • Suncrest Park, on Rumble Street, is the local green: the City lists Suncrest Park among its wading and spray pad locations, and the adjoining school park carries the playground and sports field for the Clinton Street side.
  • South of Marine Drive the area's sports anchor is the Riverway Sports Complex: the Jack Crosby Sports Box at 8605 Nelson Avenue is a covered, lit box lined for lacrosse, ball hockey and pickleball.

Suncrest: rules that affect buyers

  • Burnaby's R1 Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing (SSMUH) District governs these detached lots: the City rezoned all former R District lots to R1 in June 2024, and R1 lots are eligible for 3 to 6 dwelling units depending on lot area and proximity to a frequent transit network bus stop.
  • Secondary suites count toward that unit total: the City states the total dwelling unit count is inclusive of secondary suites, and a suite must stay registered under the same title as the primary dwelling — it cannot be stratified or sold separately.
  • Subdivision is possible in two scenarios only: fee-simple rowhouse lots (minimum width 5 to 8 metres) and other SSMUH lots (minimum width 10 metres, minimum area 281 square metres).
  • A secondary suite in Burnaby needs no additional parking space, under the City's Secondary Suite information guide (revised November 15, 2024).

Suncrest: local details a buyer would not know

  • The 146 is a one-way loop: outbound buses reach Marine Drive via Patterson Avenue, but the return to Metrotown runs up Joffre Avenue and east on Rumble Street — your stop street depends on direction.
  • The old Suncrest school site at 3883 Rumble Street now hosts preschool childcare: Burnaby Neighbourhood House lists "Suncrest Neighbourhood Care, 3883 Rumble Street" among its preschool programs — there is no operating SD41 elementary school named Suncrest.
  • Lewarne Park, at Macpherson Avenue and Rumble Street, is getting a rebuilt playground with a play tower, trampoline, tot area and upgraded sports courts, opening fall 2026.
  • The Jack Crosby Sports Box at Riverway reopened in April 2024 after a cover and upgrade, and by its May 2025 grand reopening was hosting lacrosse, ball hockey, volleyball, pickleball and badminton year-round.
  • Utility bills here carry a timing quirk: 2026 is the last year the sewer parcel tax sits on the property tax notice; from 2027 it moves to the utility notice, changing what a January buyer sees owing.

Suncrest: development and new projects

  • Lewarne Park playground, Macpherson Avenue at Rumble Street, City of Burnaby: new playground with play tower, spinner, swings, in-ground trampoline, tot play area and sports court improvements on the park's east side. Status: design underway, construction over summer 2026, opening fall 2026 (as of November 3, 2026).
  • Jack Crosby Sports Box at Riverway Sports Complex, 8605 Nelson Avenue, City of Burnaby: covered multi-use box upgrade. Status: completed — reopened April 2024, grand reopening celebrated May 3, 2025 (as of November 3, 2026).

Suncrest: costs and taxes

  • A detached home's sewer charge is a parcel tax on the May property tax notice, not the utility bill — and 2026 is the last year for that split, with all water and sewer charges combining on the utility notice from 2027.
  • Utility rates carry a 5% discount when the full payment reaches Revenue Services by the due date — on a detached home's $652.33 water charge alone that is worth about $33 a year.

Suncrest: getting around

  • The 146 Metrotown Station / Suncrest loop is the area's own route, running Marine Drive, Joffre Avenue, Rumble Street and Patterson Avenue to Metrotown Station's Expo Line.
  • TransLink's route 146 map page is the live check for stop changes on the loop.
  • The 110 bus (Lougheed Station / Metrotown Station) serves the Patterson Avenue corridor north of Imperial Street, one corridor east of the Rumble Street grid.

Suncrest: risks and due diligence

  • Ravine creeks are the check on the area's east side: Byrne Creek and its ravine parkland sit beyond South Slope, and any lot near a ravine edge should be screened on the City's Riparian Management Areas layer for a 10-metre or 30-metre Streamside Protection and Enhancement Area.
  • Redevelopment risk runs the other way here: because every detached lot carries R1 SSMUH rights of 3 to 6 units, a buyer should check BurnabyMap's per-lot unit layer for the neighbouring lots too — that does not tell you whether a neighbour has applied to build.
  • The City's development pages do not state flood elevation for these south-slope lots.
