Port Moody detached homes benchmark at $1,903,500 (-8.4% YoY, September 2026 GVR® data) — and with 148 active listings against just 16 sales in the month — a 10.8% sales-to-active ratio, detached buyers have more room to negotiate than in a tighter market — for comparison, the detached ratios elsewhere in the Tri-Cities were (Coquitlam 9.8%, Port Coquitlam 15.3%). Volumes are small, so read benchmarks rather than averages, and negotiate on days-on-market. Full numbers in the Port Moody market report.

How I work

How I help you buy a Port Moody detached home, step by step

Port Moody detached sells in small numbers across very different hillside and waterfront-side neighbourhoods, so the order you do things in matters.

  1. Step 1

    Pick the pocket first

    I start by matching your budget and daily routine to Heritage Mountain, Heritage Woods, College Park, Glenayre, Moody Centre or the Ioco Road side, using each neighbourhood's GVR benchmark rather than the city-wide number. That narrows a small inventory to the streets that actually fit before we spend weekends touring.

  2. Step 2

    Check schools and routes by address

    For every home on the shortlist I run the address through the SD43 School Locator and map the real drive or walk to Moody Centre or Inlet Centre station. Port Moody's hills make distance misleading, so I check the actual route, grade and winter access rather than the map pin.

  3. Step 3

    Price it from street-level comps

    Before we offer, I pull recent sold comparables from the same street where possible, matched for view, lot and condition. Views, slope and updates move prices on the same block, so you see the comps behind the number instead of relying on list price or assessed value.

  4. Step 4

    Write a protected offer

    I coordinate with your mortgage broker on the financing condition and timing, and recommend inspection and document-review conditions suited to an older or hillside home. I also explain the Home Buyer Rescission Period, a three-business-day right to rescind on most BC residential purchases, at a 0.25% fee.

FAQ

Port Moody detached homes: your questions, answered

How do detached benchmarks differ across Port Moody neighbourhoods?

They differ a lot, so I never price a Port Moody detached home off the city-wide number alone. In September 2026, Greater Vancouver REALTORS® put the city detached benchmark at $1,903,500, with neighbourhood benchmarks of $2,099,800 in Heritage Woods, $1,933,800 on Heritage Mountain, $1,520,800 in Port Moody Centre, $1,386,100 in College Park and $1,217,000 in Glenayre. A benchmark describes a typical home; views, lot and condition move individual prices from there.

How competitive is the Port Moody detached market in 2026?

It leans toward buyers right now. In September 2026, 16 detached homes sold against 148 active listings — a 10.8% sales-to-active ratio. Greater Vancouver REALTORS® notes that downward pressure on prices tends to occur when that ratio sits below 12 per cent. That gives buyers room on price and conditions, but a well-priced home in a sought-after pocket can still draw more than one offer, so I check each listing's history and showing activity before we set terms.

How many detached homes sell in Port Moody in a typical month?

Not many — Port Moody is a small city with mostly established neighbourhoods. In September 2026, 16 detached homes sold, 53 new detached listings came on, and 148 were active at month-end, with homes averaging 44 days on market. With volumes this small, one unusual sale can swing an average, which is why I lean on the MLS® HPI benchmark and street-level sold comps rather than monthly averages. The monthly market update tracks these figures.

How does Port Moody compare to Coquitlam for detached buyers?

Port Moody's detached benchmark ($1,903,500) sits above Coquitlam's ($1,584,400) in September 2026 GVR® data, and Coquitlam has far more choice: 470 active detached listings against 148 in Port Moody. Coquitlam has four Millennium Line stations and newer-build areas such as Burke Mountain; Port Moody has two stations, Brewers Row and the Inlet trails. Both cities are in School District 43, so schools come down to the specific address. Compare neighbourhoods on Coquitlam and Port Moody.

Which Port Moody detached neighbourhoods are closest to SkyTrain?

Moody Centre and the streets around Inlet Centre are closest. Port Moody has two Millennium Line stations: Moody Centre Station, between Moody and Williams streets, and Inlet Centre Station, at Ioco Road and Barnet Highway. Detached homes in Moody Centre and on the lower slopes of Heritage Mountain near Ioco Road are the most station-friendly; upper Heritage Mountain, Heritage Woods and Glenayre are generally a drive or bus ride away. I map the actual walking route from any address we're serious about, since hills matter as much as distance here.

Do I need to live in the Port Moody Secondary catchment for the IB programme?

No. SD43 runs the International Baccalaureate programme at Port Moody Secondary as a district-wide programme, open by application to students across School District 43, covering a coordinated curriculum from grade 9 to grade 12. Buying a detached home in the Port Moody Secondary catchment doesn't secure an IB place, and living outside it doesn't rule one out. Check SD43's current application process and dates, and confirm your address's regular catchment on the SD43 School Locator.

What should I check before buying a hillside detached home in Port Moody?

Check the things a hillside lot adds to a normal inspection. On Heritage Mountain, Heritage Woods and parts of College Park, I look at retaining walls and who owns them, drainage and perimeter-drain history, driveway grade and winter access, and whether additions and walls had permits. Ask the seller for permits and records, and book a home inspector familiar with older hillside homes. If a view is part of the price, confirm what could block it. If you'd like help weighing a specific property, book a 20-minute strategy call.

Who this market is for

Four buyers Port Moody detached is built for.

Detached buyers in Port Moody arrive from very different starting points. Naming which one you actually are — honestly — collapses a six-month search into a two-week shortlist.

Persona 1

The townhome-to-detached move-up family

Outgrew a Klahanie, Suter Brook, or Newport Village townhome — usually after baby #2 or once both kids are in school. Wants to stay in Port Moody for the Inlet lifestyle and existing friend group. Often looking at College Park, Glenayre, or lower Heritage Mountain.

Persona 2

The Vancouver relocator chasing the Inlet

Selling a Kits, East Van, or North Shore detached and prioritising walkable urban-village identity — Brewers Row, Rocky Point trail access, two SkyTrain stations. Often a couple with school-age kids or pre-retirement. Trade equity into a Heritage Mountain view-street or Ioco-edge waterfront-adjacent lot.

Persona 3

The Heritage Woods catchment family

School-driven decision. Specifically buying for the Heritage Woods Secondary catchment — confirmed address by address on the SD43 School Locator. Often planning a long stay, through the kids' school years.

Persona 4

The luxury Heritage Mountain buyer

A higher-budget buyer looking for upper Heritage Mountain view-streets with unobstructed Inlet/city lines, which come up for sale infrequently. Often a downsized-from-acreage executive or a Vancouver detached relocator. A protected view usually costs more than a comparable home without one; how much varies, so I price it from recent sales on the same street.

Lifestyle zones

Five distinct detached zones inside one small city.

Port Moody’s detached inventory splits cleanly into five lifestyle zones. Each has its own neighbourhood benchmark, school catchments and character. Naming the right one before you tour saves weekends.

Heritage Mountain

Heritage Mountain — executive hillside

Established 1990s–2000s executive detached with Inlet and city views from the upper view-streets. Many addresses are in the Heritage Woods Secondary catchment, depending on the address. Neighbourhood detached benchmark: $1,933,800 (September 2026). Homes with protected views generally sell above comparable homes without them.

Heritage Mountain guide →
Heritage Woods

Heritage Woods — family estate hillside

Higher up the mountain — newer 2000s–2010s family-estate detached on larger lots. Heritage Woods Secondary (1300 David Avenue) is in this area; elementary catchment varies by address — Aspenwood Elementary (2001 Panorama Drive) and Mountain Meadows Elementary (999 Noons Creek Drive) are nearby. Neighbourhood detached benchmark: $2,099,800 (September 2026). Family-stage buyers, school-driven.

Heritage Woods catchment deep-dive →
College Park

College Park — mid-tier established

Established neighbourhood on Port Moody's south side, between Glenayre and Moody Centre. Mature 1960s–90s detached stock, Rocky Point Park and the Shoreline Trail are a short drive away. Brewers Row and Moody Centre Station are close by. Schools depend on the address — check the SD43 School Locator. Neighbourhood detached benchmark: $1,386,100 (September 2026).

Moody Centre & College Park →
Glenayre

Glenayre — west-side family streets

Quiet west-side established detached: cul-de-sacs, mature trees, 1960s–90s stock on generous lots. Glenayre Elementary (495 Glencoe Drive) is a dual-track English and Early French Immersion K–5 school; secondary catchment depends on the address. Less amenity density than central Port Moody; neighbourhood detached benchmark $1,217,000 (September 2026).

Glenayre guide →
Moody Centre + Ioco/April Road

Moody Centre + Ioco / April Road

Two distinct micro-zones with similar buyer profiles. Moody Centre offers historic detached + newer infill near Brewers Row and SkyTrain. Ioco/April Road runs the quiet eastern Inlet edge — older detached homes near the water, Pleasantside Elementary (195 Barber Street) nearby — catchment depends on the address — and a slower-paced feel.

Ioco / April Road guide →
Schools (SD43)

Schools that serve Port Moody detached.

Every public school in Port Moody runs under School District 43. The K-12 ladder depends heavily on which side of the city you live in: many Heritage Mountain and Heritage Woods addresses are in the Heritage Woods Secondary catchment, and many central and west-side addresses are in the Port Moody Secondary catchment, which also hosts SD43’s district-wide IB programme. Catchments shift — always verify the specific address with SD43.

Secondary · Grades 9–12

Heritage Woods Secondary

1300 David Avenue. Serves many Heritage Mountain, Heritage Woods and upper Port Moody addresses, depending on the address.

Secondary · Grades 9–12

Port Moody Secondary

300 Albert Street. Serves many central and west-side addresses, depending on the address, and hosts SD43's district-wide IB programme (by application).

Middle · Grades 6–8

Eagle Mountain Middle

110 Dogwood Drive. SD43 says the majority of Eagle Mountain students move on to Heritage Woods Secondary.

Elementary · K–5

Pleasantside Elementary

195 Barber Street, on Port Moody's north shore. Catchment depends on the address.

Elementary · K–5

Aspenwood Elementary

2001 Panorama Drive, in the Heritage Woods area. Catchment and middle-school path depend on the address.

Elementary · K–5

Glenayre Elementary

495 Glencoe Drive. Dual-track school offering English and Early French Immersion, K–5.

The Difference

Why work with Craig on your Port Moody detached purchase

1
I cover every Port Moody detached pocket, not just the headline ones
PM detached buyers often end up in a different sub-neighbourhood than where they started looking — Heritage Mountain shoppers fall in love with a College Park lot, Heritage Woods catchment families end up in Glenayre for the cul-de-sac. I work every PM detached zone, plus Burke Mountain and Westwood Plateau across the Tri-Cities, so your search isn’t constrained by my blind spots.
2
I’m data-first on pricing
Every offer I write references recent sold comps — from the same Port Moody street where possible, and the same view band and catchment — not list prices, assessed values or seller expectations. Whatever we offer on a Heritage Mountain street, you’ll see the view-aware comps behind the number.
3
I work with your mortgage broker, not around them
Pre-approval quality varies. I work with your lender directly on the offer structure, financing conditions, and timing — because a financing condition that can’t be removed on time can end a deal.

From Craig

“On Heritage Mountain, a protected view can be a major price variable. Two homes with the same square footage on the same street can trade far apart because one has an unobstructed Inlet line and one doesn’t. I want my PM clients to see that math before they fall in love with a listing.”
