Burnaby offers more home for the money than Vancouver without giving up SkyTrain access, which is why it is one of the region's busiest markets. The right choice depends on which town centre you're in and how close you are to a station.
The Burnaby micro-market
- Metrotown: BC's largest shopping centre surrounded by concrete towers on the Expo Line: the deepest condo market in the city.
- Brentwood: A master-planned skyline of new towers around The Amazing Brentwood on the Millennium Line, popular with first-time buyers and investors.
- Lougheed and Edmonds: Newer town centres with large redevelopment sites, presale towers and more townhomes.
- Burnaby Heights and Capitol Hill: Character and post-war detached homes with North Shore mountain views, near the cafés on Hastings Street.
- Transit-oriented zoning: Provincial transit-oriented area rules allow much more density near SkyTrain stations, and Burnaby's tenant assistance and rental replacement policies shape what gets redeveloped. Both affect land values around stations.
Schools and family appeal
- Burnaby School District: Burnaby North, Burnaby South, Moscrop and Burnaby Central are among the secondary schools families ask about most.
- Post-secondary: Simon Fraser University on Burnaby Mountain and BCIT's main campus.
- Parks: Deer Lake Park, Central Park, Burnaby Lake and the trails of Burnaby Mountain.
- Daily life: Metrotown and Brentwood shopping, Hastings Street dining, and SkyTrain to downtown and the rest of the region.
School catchments change. Confirm the address with the school district before you write an offer.

BC's 2023 small-scale multi-unit housing legislation now allows three to four units on most single-family lots in larger municipalities, which is reshaping what detached lots are worth. Check the lot's current zoning with the municipality, and get a home inspection and a title search before removing subjects.
Budget for BC's property transfer tax on top of the price — it's charged on the purchase and first-time buyers and new builds may qualify for exemptions. See our BC & Alberta closing costs checklist.
