PVSC + MLS · Area aggregate

Recent sales here are too few to report a reliable typical price — the figures below lean on the area's assessed values instead.

Assessed change+56%3 yr
Median assessment$281,9002026
OverviewPVSC + 2021 Census

Recent sales here are too thin to state a reliable typical price, so this profile leans on the area's assessed-value movement (+56% over three years), its housing stock, and the 2021 census, rather than a headline price.

As of the 2021 Census, about 425 people live here, with a median household income near $69,902. 86% of homes are owner-occupied and 86% are single-detached.

Roughly 12 homes were added in the last five years — about 6.7% of the stock.

How to read this profile

An area profile for Black Point— how the area has moved, never a per-home estimate or a forecast. Market figures cover the last 24 months of arm's-length single-family sales (Property Valuation Services Corporation); the trend is on median price per square foot, which controls for which homes happened to sell. Where recent sales are too thin to be reliable, the typical-price figure is suppressed and the assessed-value movement is shown instead. New-build premiums hold home size constant. Demographics are from the 2021 Census of Canada, apportioned from dissemination areas to this boundary by parcel share.
