Living in Port Moody Centre: What the Listings Say

Condos make up 68 of the 89 active listings in Port Moody Centre, or 76. 4 percent of what is for sale. That is the dominant story here. Detached houses account for 10 listings at 11. 2 percent, townhouses for 7 at 7. 9 percent, with two half duplexes and two other homes rounding out the mix. The median year built is 2013, and 42. 5 percent of listings are new builds, so much of this stock is recent. Median living area sits at 943 square feet, which fits a market weighted toward apartments. You will find the median list price at $799,000, ranging from $349,000 to $15,700,000. Condos carry a median of $699,950, while detached houses run to a median of $1,624,900. The typical strata fee is $425. If you want space, the choices thin out fast.

The $425 median strata fee tells you a lot about monthly life in that 943 square feet. That number covers the shared costs on a home that, for most buyers here, is a two-bedroom condo priced near the $758,000 median for that size. Forty-four of the 89 listings carry two bedrooms, so this is where the market clusters. Your carrying cost is the mortgage plus that fee, and at these sizes the fee stays predictable. Buildings like The Grande, with 8 active listings, and Anchor and Hue at 3 each, shape what a monthly budget looks like across the neighbourhood. A one-bedroom at a $578,000 median trims the entry point further. Nineteen of those are on the market now. Space costs more, quickly. Push to three bedrooms and the median jumps to $1,189,000, roughly $430,000 above the two-bedroom figure. With a median price per square foot of $840, every extra room is a real line item. Daily life here means less square footage and a fixed monthly fee you can plan around.
