Burke Mountain’s own numbers from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® September 2026 release, the Coquitlam figures they sit inside, and a Burke Mountain resident’s read on what they mean up the mountain.
Reviewed: October 29, 2026 · Market data: GVR September 2026 · BCFSA Licence: 187645 · Brokerage: Royal LePage Elite WestBurke Mountain has its own published benchmarks, separate from Coquitlam’s. In September 2026, the detached benchmark was $1,867,100 (−3.1% year over year) and the townhouse benchmark $1,040,600 (−7.3%). Across all property types (GVR Stats Centre series), half of September’s Burke sales went under contract within 21 days, and half closed at 100.0% of their original asking price or better. Sales, listings and the market-pace bar for each home type are in the tracker below.

The tracker above shows Burke Mountain’s own numbers, not Coquitlam’s. Most neighbourhood “market reports” quote city-wide figures because that is what the monthly press release contains. These come from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® REALTOR® Report for Coquitlam, which breaks the city down by neighbourhood. This section sets them against the city Burke sits inside. Every percentage is measured against September 2025.
Set against the city, Burke detached changed −3.1% year over year against Coquitlam’s −6.6%, and Burke townhouses −7.3% against −6.4%. Burke’s detached benchmark sits $282,700 above the Coquitlam figure, and its townhouse benchmark $64,000 above. If you bought a year ago, that change is on paper, not in your pocket, until you sell.
Compare Burke’s sales-to-active ratios in the tracker with Coquitlam’s in the city table below. Read the benchmark alongside the days to contract below: in any month, the listings that sell are the ones priced from accurate comparables.
Burke sits inside the City of Coquitlam. These municipal benchmarks are the wider market its numbers move within. They are useful context, but the Burke figures above are the ones that describe your street.

Regional context — Greater Vancouver, September 2026. Across Greater Vancouver there were 1,717 sales (−8.4% year over year) against 16,394 homes listed for sale; GVR’s detached sales-to-active ratio for the region was 9.5%. GVR notes prices tend to face downward pressure when the ratio stays below 12% and upward pressure above 20%.
Sold pace · all property types
A second GVR series, labelled as such. The benchmark figures above come from the REALTOR® Report’s neighbourhood tables, reported by property type. The figures in this section come from a different GVR source — the board’s Stats Centre monthly statistics for the Burke Mountain sub-area — and they treat the neighbourhood as one blended market: all property types combined. The two series answer different questions, so their numbers are not interchangeable, and every figure on this page names its source. All changes here are measured against a year earlier.
What the pace numbers actually say
The tiles above tell you how Burke homes are trading; the tracker tells you what they are worth. In September the read was thinner volume, contracts still coming together faster than a year ago, and prices below last year.
The honest read: homes priced right are still moving. The average sale closed at 98.8% of original list, below the median above — the gap shows the discounts cluster in the listings that started high. In this market, pricing is the strategy: find out where your home actually sits before you set a number.
Two GVR series, one neighbourhood
Sharp-eyed readers will notice the blended median sale price above sits far below the detached benchmark in the tracker. Both are correct; they measure different things. A median is the middle of whatever happened to sell that month, and townhomes are Burke’s volume product — they outsold detached 11 to 3 in September — so the blended median lands closer to townhome pricing. The benchmark describes a typical home of one type. Most of that gap is composition, not contradiction.
Sales, active listings and the sales-to-active ratio on this page come from one source only: the GVR REALTOR® Report neighbourhood tables. The other measures in this table come from the Greater Vancouver REALTORS® Stats Centre, Burke Mountain sub-area monthly statistics — all property types, all price ranges, September 2026 (retrieved October 25, 2026). All changes are year-over-year vs. September 2025.

Tap a pin or a name to see the builder, status and home count, then jump to the developer’s own website or my guide. Switch the view to see just townhomes, just detached homes, the schools, or the shops, groceries and clinics nearby. Zoom out to find Costco, Save-On-Foods and the rest in Port Coquitlam.

The status buttons narrow the developments. Scroll or pinch on the map to zoom, drag to move around, or open it full screen for a bigger view.
Tap Map layers on the map to add creeks, hiking trails, bus routes, the City’s land-use plan (what’s planned next door), parks and playgrounds, and licensed daycares. Every layer starts off, so turn on only what you need.
Pins are placed from each development’s civic address using the BC Address Geocoder; Partington Creek, Marigold and Amber Gate are placed at block level. Statuses come from each developer’s website, checked October 20, 2026. Harper Peak isn’t pinned because Foxridge doesn’t publish its address. The Burke Mountain Village outline follows the City’s land-use map: the area bounded by David Avenue, Mitchell Street and Burke Village Promenade. Future Marigold Elementary is shown at 1350 Pollard Street, its site on the same City map; no opening date has been announced. Minnekhada Middle, Kwayhquitlum Middle and Terry Fox Secondary serve Burke from Port Coquitlam; choose Schools to see them. Shops and services are placed from OpenStreetMap and the BC Address Geocoder. The David Avenue plaza tenants follow Tri-City News (October 2024) and my local-business guide. Burke Mountain Medical Centre is in Port Coquitlam despite its name (HealthLinkBC). Creeks are drawn from the City of Coquitlam’s Watercourse layer (streams and the Coquitlam River; roadside ditches are left out), downloaded October 22, 2026. Gaps usually mark a culvert or piped section. The layer covers Coquitlam only, so creeks inside Port Coquitlam aren’t drawn. The City says its watercourse mapping may not show the exact location of every watercourse, and its default streamside setback is 30 m from the top of bank (15 m on some), confirmed site by site. Check the City’s Watercourse Setbacks map before relying on any lot. Hiking trails are drawn from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL), retrieved October 22, 2026; lengths are the mapped trail, not a round trip. BC Parks notes signage on Burke Mountain trails is incomplete, so check BC Parks advisories before heading out. Bus routes and stops come from TransLink’s GTFS schedule (feed valid to January 3, 2027); ride times and 7–9 am departures are scheduled figures for Wednesday, October 28, 2026. Route and arrival data used in this product or service is provided by permission of TransLink. The land-use layer shows the City of Coquitlam’s Official Community Plan land-use designations (City open data, retrieved October 22, 2026). A designation shows what the plan allows, not what’s built or approved, and rezoning decides each site. Playgrounds, playing fields, courts and washrooms come from the City’s parks data, retrieved the same day. Daycares are licensed facilities from the Province of B.C.’s Child Care Map data (Open Government Licence – British Columbia), updated October 22, 2026; check the BC Child Care Map for spaces and fees. SD43 doesn’t publish school catchment boundaries as a map, so they aren’t drawn here. Always confirm a school catchment with the SD43 School Locator.
I live on Burke Mountain; this is the read from inside. Much of Burke’s housing is recent construction, and new releases keep adding family townhomes and detached homes. As of October 20, 2026, releases selling now include Beaumont, Partington Creek South, Terrayne, Rocklin, Culmena, Versant, Towns at Burke, Parkview and Timber’s Edge. Newer stock plus family demand is why Burke listings often trade differently than the city-wide averages suggest.
The townhome story matters most here. Burke holds a large share of the city’s newer family townhomes, and they are its volume product, so the townhouse line in the tracker is the one most Burke buyers and sellers should watch month to month.
Go deeper: the Burke Mountain flagship guide, every active development, new construction in 2026, moving to Burke Mountain, and what each price band actually buys on Burke.
The Coquitlam composite benchmark changed −6.3% year over year, and the sold pace above shows how quickly well-priced Burke homes are still going under contract. Tour the development guide first so you know the presale versus resale trade-offs.
Many Burke homes are recent builds, and you are also competing with builders’ sales centres. Price against current resale comparables, not 2022 memories, and lead with what new construction can’t offer: established landscaping, a finished basement, and no GST on a resale home. Get an evaluation.
This is general market commentary, not individual advice: your street, product type and timeline change the answer.
The same GVR release, read for each Tri-Cities city and neighbourhood.
CoquitlamPort MoodyPort CoquitlamWestwood PlateauHeritage MountainAnmoreBelcarraAll market reports →A benchmark is a starting point, not a price. Here is how I turn these monthly numbers into a price for one specific Burke Mountain home.
I begin with Burke Mountain’s own benchmark for your property type from the GVR REALTOR® Report, not the Coquitlam city figure, and note how it moved over the year. The benchmark describes a typical home, so it sets the starting line. It is not the price of your home.
Next I pull recent Burke sales of homes like yours: same type, similar size and age, and a similar position on the mountain. I look at the original list price, the final price and the days to contract, because together they show where buyers actually stopped.
I look at what is for sale now, including developer releases nearby. New homes come with a warranty but also GST, and buyers compare the two. The active listings show what a buyer will set beside your home in the week it goes on the market.
I give you a price range in writing, with the sales behind it. After launch, I track showings and feedback each week. If the market is telling us something different, we talk about it early, so the listing doesn’t sit while the numbers move.
To see how this works on real files, read the Tri-Cities case studies. Or book a call and I’ll walk you through the recent Burke sales closest to your home.

He made us feel supported throughout the entire process and was always willing to answer our questions and take the time to make sure we felt comfortable and confident in our decisions. We never felt pressured or rushed.”
“Craig worked with my wife and me for over 3 years to find the perfect home. He was endlessly patient with us through the process. Eventually, we found our perfect home and he moved fast to execute on our behalf. He negotiated fairly and thoroughly with the sellers and was our advocate all throughout our first home purchase.”
“After searching for several years, I knew exactly what I was looking for—and Craig delivered. We viewed a handful of properties, and the home he ultimately found was exactly what I had been searching for. I couldn't believe how quickly he nailed it.”
“We had a fantastic experience working with Craig, who was recommended by a friend. He patiently guided us through the process to purchase our family forever home in Vancouver, explaining all the steps and answering all of our many questions. He was always responsive and available whenever we needed him and always felt like he wanted the absolute best for us.”
“We recently moved from overseas and were not familiar with the purchasing process in BC. Craig was fantastic spending the time to explain everything thoroughly so we had a good handle on things. We felt we were in very experienced hands.”
“Craig is one of the best realtor to work with, highly knowledgable and very patient. Guided us through the whole process stress free. Highly Recommend Craig Johnston.”
“He spent time getting to know us, visiting homes on our behalf until we were in the market. Craig prepared us to better understand the local market, city planning and developments all to refine our search. He is professional and works well with other realtors — a true partner in the process of purchasing a home!”
“Craig is what everyone hopes they will find in a realtor, yet is so incredibly rare. His foundation of genuine care and generosity with his time is outstanding… We never felt rushed, pressured or stressed by what is fundamentally a rather daunting experience, and it was because he created a dynamic of collaboration and support.”
“Craig extended such patience, excitement and professionalism in helping my husband and I buy a townhouse in Port Coquitlam (my hometown!) so we could continue raising our two girls where I also grew up. When we faced a hurdle getting financing approval because of a lien on our desired townhome, Craig worked tirelessly with our broker to get the lien removed.”
“Craig was a pleasure to work with for the purchase of our home. Craig was very patient as we debated between a condo and a townhome. Craig found us a home that ticked all of our boxes plus some! He made the whole process smooth and enjoyable.”
“We had a fantastic experience working with Craig on the purchase of our first home in Coquitlam. He was incredibly friendly and responsive, always quick to answer our messages and questions. Throughout the process, he took the time to walk us through each step so my partner and I always knew exactly what was going on and what to expect next. Craig also gave us honest, helpful opinions on properties we were considering, which really helped guide us toward a place we love. On top of that, he connected us with a great broker and lawyer, making the whole process feel seamless. We're so happy in our new home and couldn't have done it without him. Highly recommend Craig to anyone buying a home!”
“Throughout our journey, Craig demonstrated immense patience and understanding. He went out of his way to provide extra resources and various options to consider on both the buy and sell side.”
“Craig assisted in every aspect of the purchase of my Bowen Island home, including the building inspection, the follow-up inspection, and ensuring deficiencies were repaired. He was thorough and protected my position every step of the way.”
“Craig was patient throughout the entire process. He never pushed us to buy something we weren't sure about, and when we decided to wait six months and save more, he just said ‘good call’ and stayed in touch. When we did finally buy, the math was so much cleaner.”
“Craig was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is extremely friendly, highly knowledgeable, and constantly monitors trends and data so we could make informed decisions. The more time we spent interacting with other agents during our home-buying process, the more pleased we were with choosing Craig.”
“As first-time home buyers, we had a myriad of concerns. Craig immediately put us at ease by taking the time to address each of our questions thoroughly and patiently. At no point did I feel pressured or rushed into making a decision. Instead, Craig empowered us with all the facts and options.”
“We had such a great experience working with Craig to buy our home! He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always available whenever we needed him.

Yes. Greater Vancouver REALTORS® reports Burke Mountain as its own sub-area inside the monthly REALTOR® Report for Coquitlam, with benchmarks by property type separate from the city figure. For September 2026, detached is $1,867,100 (−3.1%) and townhouse $1,040,600 (−7.3%). The monthly press release most sites quote only carries municipal figures, which is why Burke is usually reported as “Coquitlam.”
It depends on the property type. In September 2026, Burke Mountain’s detached benchmark changed −3.1% year over year against −6.6% for Coquitlam, and its townhouse benchmark changed −7.3% against −6.4% for the city. One month is a snapshot, not a trend, and the result for any one home depends on the home and how it is priced.
Burke Mountain’s September 2026 benchmarks were $1,867,100 detached (−3.1% year over year) and $1,040,600 townhouse (−7.3%). A benchmark describes a typical home; individual homes sell above or below it depending on size, age, lot and location. For live listings see Burke Mountain homes for sale, and for what each budget buys see the Burke price bands.
Across all property types, the median September 2026 Burke Mountain sale went from listing to accepted offer in 21 days (−25.0% year over year), and half of the month’s sales closed at 100.0% of original asking price or better. The average sale closed at 98.8% of original list. Source: GVR Stats Centre monthly series for the Burke Mountain sub-area.
They measure different things. The blended median sale price ($1,141,000) is the middle of whatever sold that month across every property type, while the detached benchmark ($1,867,100) describes a typical detached home. In September, Burke recorded 11 townhouse sales and 3 detached, so the blended median lands closer to townhome pricing. Most of that gap is composition, not contradiction.
