BC's original capital.
New Westminster, BC's historic first capital, offers riverfront living, heritage character, and one of the region's more attainable inner-Metro condo markets, backed by five SkyTrain stations across the city.
Whether you're searching for a home in New Westminster or thinking about listing one, local context matters — what a property is actually worth here, how quickly comparable homes have been moving, and which streets or buildings tend to hold their value. Manan works across both the residential and commercial sides of New Westminster's market and can walk you through what's realistic for your specific goals.

Uptown is a vibrant, modern hub with high-rises, shops, and dining, popular with young professionals and downsizers. Sapperton is home to Royal Columbian Hospital, one of BC's major medical centres, giving that neighbourhood a strong healthcare-employment character.
It's served by five SkyTrain stations across the Expo and Millennium Lines, unusually good coverage for its size, on top of walkable riverfront paths and a compact, historic street grid.

Housing in New Westminster includes condos. For condos and townhomes, the strata documents — meeting minutes, the depreciation report, and the contingency reserve fund — deserve as much attention as the unit itself.
It depends on what you're after. New Westminster is best summed up as “BC's original capital”, and it tends to suit buyers who want a turnkey home in an established community. Visiting at different times of day and comparing it with nearby communities is the best way to judge the fit.
New Westminster's home prices are tracked by Greater Vancouver Realtors (GVR), not the Fraser Valley board, so Fraser Valley benchmark figures aren't a fair comparison. Prices in New Westminster vary widely by property type, size, and age; recent sold comparables for the specific type of home you're considering are the reliable guide, and Manan can pull them for you.
