Pacific Heights is a mature west-side family neighbourhood between Circle Drive West and 33rd Street, one of the more heavily detached pockets on this side of the city. Of 1,421 dwellings inside the boundary, 1,189 sit in single-family houses (84 per cent), 158 in two-unit dwellings (11 per cent), and 74 in multi-unit buildings (5 per cent) (City of Saskatoon Neighbourhood Profile, 2021 Census data). Eighty-five per cent of the housing stock was built between 1961 and 1980, which makes Pacific Heights a mid-century detached neighbourhood in every practical sense, and the resale pool is dominated by working households who see the area as an entry-price west-side option with more detached inventory than most equivalent pockets carry.
I list homes across Saskatoon as a city-based REALTOR® and this page is written for Pacific Heights owners specifically: how an eighty-four-per-cent detached mid-century neighbourhood is priced against 2024 detached sales that place it in the entry band of the west-side market, how a small but real attached pocket sits alongside the detached majority, and how a listing here has to compete cleanly with the many other 1960s and 1970s bungalows and bilevels going live on nearby streets in the same week.
Selling a Condo, Townhouse, or House in Pacific Heights
Pacific Heights is a detached-dominant market by a large margin. Eighty-four per cent of the dwellings sit in single-family houses, the two-unit share holds a small but present eleven per cent, and multi-unit product is just five per cent of the neighbourhood, which is one of the lowest multi-unit shares among the west-side pockets on this side of Circle Drive. The 2024 sales record follows that same shape.
Pacific Heights condo value: what actually sets your price
The City recorded no low-rise, high-rise, or condo townhouse closings inside Pacific Heights in 2024 (City of Saskatoon). That is consistent with the very small multi-unit footprint of 74 dwellings inside the boundary. It does not mean any given condo unit is unsellable, it means pricing has to lean on same-building comparables and active listings in similar west-side apartment complexes rather than a Pacific Heights average that has no denominator behind it. Current inventory, if any, is on the Pacific Heights condos for sale page.
Pacific Heights townhouse listing agent: how townhomes sell differently here
Condo townhouse activity was also absent from the 2024 City record for Pacific Heights (City of Saskatoon). Townhouse buyers care about the specific complex and the condo corporation, so bylaws, reserve fund studies, and monthly fee history need to be in hand before the listing goes live. Because same-neighbourhood 2024 comparables are missing, pricing a townhouse here has to reach into adjacent west-side complexes for a working comparable set. Active listings are on the Pacific Heights townhouses for sale page.
Detached houses: the top of the Pacific Heights market
Detached houses carry the resale market here almost entirely. The City recorded 62 single-family closings in 2024 at an average of $311,305, alongside a small attached pool of 4 semi-detached closings at an average of $252,375 (City of Saskatoon). A note on the attached sample: the City PDF publishes this row twice, once as Semi-detached and once as Semi-detached-two-titles, both showing 4 closings at $252,375, which is almost certainly a data artifact rather than 8 unique sales, so I treat it as a single 4-unit sample. The detached band places Pacific Heights in the entry band of the citywide detached market and points listings at first-time family buyers, small-scale investors, and Saskatoon working households choosing an entry-price west-side location over a further-out suburb. Active detached inventory is on the single family homes in Pacific Heights page.
Because the neighbourhood is dominated by detached product with a small attached pocket and effectively no active condo tier, the marketing plan below is tuned to detached and attached listings, and pricing is done on your specific unit or lot rather than a neighbourhood average.
How Your Listing Reaches Pacific Heights Buyers
An MLS® listing is table stakes. It drops your home into the feed every REALTOR®, portal, and consumer app pulls from, and on its own it does not separate your Pacific Heights listing from the other west-side homes going live in the same week. Everything below runs on top of that baseline for every Braaten Group listing in the neighbourhood.

Where a Pacific Heights Listing Actually Gets Seen
Wide marketing only produces a result if the destination it drives buyers to has real traffic behind it. Every Century 21 Fusion listing appears on kentbraaten.com, which includes yours if you list your Pacific Heights home with me, and the gap between this site and the average Canadian brokerage site is not small.
In plain terms, kentbraaten.com pulls roughly 23 times the monthly site sessions and 79 times the monthly page views of the average Canadian brokerage site. A Pacific Heights listing surfaced through this site reaches a much larger, already-engaged pool of buyers than one carried only on a typical brokerage page ever will.
Daily Reporting on Your Pacific Heights Listing
Most seller frustration during a listing has nothing to do with the number itself. It is about the silence between showings. Every listing I take on ships with a live Listing Insights Dashboard, built in Google Looker Studio and wired directly into the ad accounts, MLS® board feed, and analytics working on your file.
The dashboard above is a sample only. The figures come from a real Saskatoon listing rather than a Pacific Heights property, and your own dashboard would report live numbers for your specific address and refresh daily.
Everything on it is pulled straight from source: Meta and Google ad performance, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube post reach, MLS® client-portal and agent activity, plus REALTOR.ca views, favourites, photo views, and shares. You see the same numbers I see, on the same day I see them, without needing to call in for an update or wait for a weekly summary.
Why Selling in Pacific Heights Is Not Like Selling Elsewhere in Saskatoon
The dominant fact about Pacific Heights is that eighty-five per cent of its dwellings were built between 1961 and 1980 (City of Saskatoon). That is one of the most concentrated build eras of any west-side neighbourhood, which means the resale housing stock is remarkably consistent in floor plan, ceiling height, and finish era from one street to the next. Standing out inside that consistency is where marketing earns its keep, because the buyer visiting your home has probably viewed three similar bungalows or bilevels that morning.
The second difference is how detached-dominant this neighbourhood is. Eighty-four per cent single-family (City of Saskatoon) is one of the higher shares in the west side and well above what most equivalent entry-price pockets carry. That gives sellers a deep local comparable set for detached pricing but almost no same-neighbourhood evidence for condo or townhouse pricing, which has to reach into adjacent complexes.
The third difference is where the detached band sits. The 2024 detached average of $311,305 across 62 closings (City of Saskatoon) is entry-price for the citywide detached market, which is exactly why the neighbourhood's first-time family and Saskatoon working-household pools are so active here. Framed correctly, the below-benchmark pricing is a magnet for the right pool rather than a weakness to hide.
The attached tier has a quirk to be aware of. The City PDF publishes the semi-detached line twice, once as Semi-detached and once as Semi-detached-two-titles, both showing 4 closings at $252,375 (City of Saskatoon). That is almost certainly a data artifact rather than 8 unique sales, so I treat it as a single 4-unit attached sample, which is a thin but usable anchor for attached-home sellers on this side of the neighbourhood.
Pricing an Entry-Price West-Side Detached Home
A CMA in Pacific Heights starts from format and pays close attention to how consistent the mid-century detached stock is inside the boundary. For detached houses, the 62 closings in 2024 give a workable same-neighbourhood comparable set once we filter by street, era, garage configuration, basement development, and updates. That is a deep pool for an entry-price market and one of the advantages of listing on this side of Circle Drive rather than in a smaller neighbourhood with fewer sales to reference.
For the attached tier, the effective 4-closing average of $252,375 gives a working anchor rather than a benchmark, and the exact number for any given semi-detached home depends heavily on the specific block, condition, updates, and title structure. Same-block or same-complex comparables do most of the pricing work.
Region-wide benchmark prices from the Saskatchewan REALTORS® Association cover the Saskatoon-Biggar region as a whole rather than Pacific Heights on its own, so those numbers provide context but never replace neighbourhood-specific comparables. I bring the closed-sale side of that picture, which is not published on the public listing sites, to your in-person evaluation.
The listings above show current asking prices in Pacific Heights, not closed sale prices. Closed figures for recent Pacific Heights sales, along with days on market and any price adjustments, are not published publicly. I bring that side of the comparison to your in-person evaluation so the pricing conversation is grounded in what buyers actually paid, not just what other sellers asked.
Who Is Buying in Pacific Heights
The typical Pacific Heights detached buyer is a first-time family stepping up from an apartment or townhouse, a Saskatoon working household choosing an entry-price west-side location over a further-out suburb, or a small-scale investor looking at a resale-plus-basement-suite play on a 1970s bungalow. Family buyers weight things like a fenced yard, a garage, a functional basement, and proximity to Pacific Heights schools more heavily than a couple or single professional would.
Median personal income sits at $40,040 versus $44,650 citywide (City of Saskatoon), which is below the citywide figure and consistent with the entry-price detached band the neighbourhood is holding. That points to cost-conscious buyers who reward preparation and honest condition presentation, and who move quickly on well-priced updated homes when they show up.
The attached pool is small but present. Semi-detached buyers here are usually first-time buyers who want the yard and garage of a detached home without paying detached prices, or investor buyers looking at attached product on the smaller blocks near the outer edges of the neighbourhood.
Knowing which pool your specific listing competes in shapes not just the list price but the whole marketing angle. A first-time-family detached listing is not marketed the same way as an investor-target basement-suite bungalow, and running both angles at once wastes the media budget.
What Sellers Say About Working With Kent
The quotes below are from Kent's clients across the greater Saskatoon area rather than from Pacific Heights specifically. They reflect how the listing process, marketing, and reporting actually feel to a seller from first conversation to closing.
Kent was the best choice to sell our home. His presentation was professional, his strategy was clear, and his marketing went far beyond simply putting our house on REALTOR.ca and placing a sign in the yard. We felt confident throughout the entire process and would highly recommend Kent to anyone looking to sell their home.
Adam Kitter — seller, Evergreen neighbourhood, Saskatoon
Kent did an amazing job marketing our property. It was an investment property and we wanted to get maximum value out of it. His feedback and marketing strategy made the whole process easy, and the Listing Insights Dashboard kept us informed and relaxed from start to finish.
101216879 Sask Ltd. — investment property seller
We were moving out of province for work, and Kent made the selling process seamless and stress-free. You could really tell the difference his planning and marketing made throughout the process.

Awards and Recognition
Awards are not a substitute for a solid CMA on your specific home, but they do show a pattern across many closings rather than a single strong year.
3×Centurion ProducerCentury 21 North American award for top producers
11×Masters AwardCentury 21 Canada recognition for top producers
2019Top Listing AgentCentury 21 Fusion, Saskatoon
Three Centurion Producer years, eleven Masters Awards, and a 2019 Top Listing Agent title at Century 21 Fusion, Saskatoon. That last one matters on a page written for sellers, because it measures listing-side production specifically rather than combined buying-and-selling volume.
Because most Pacific Heights homes were built inside a narrow 1961-1980 window, preparation here is about standing apart from very consistent neighbouring product rather than hiding age. Before your listing goes live, focus on:
Refreshing worn but structurally fine finishes (paint, cabinet hardware, faucets, light fixtures, front-door hardware) that read as dated next to updated comparable listings on the same block.
Yard and landscaping presentation, since a mowed lawn, defined beds, and a tidy approach photograph as maintained and matter more to first-time family buyers than most sellers realise.
Basement development or freshening, since basement finish is one of the clearer differentiators among similar 1970s bungalows and bilevels, and legal basement-suite potential can meaningfully change the buyer pool on a resale-plus-rental play.
Documenting mechanical age (furnace, hot water tank, roof, electrical panel, windows) so a buyer's inspector and lawyer can move quickly and confidently.
For semi-detached units, gathering title, party-wall, and any complex documents ahead of listing so a buyer's lawyer can complete without delay.
Decluttering and depersonalising so 1970s floor plans read as usable rather than crowded in photos and during showings.
Curb-appeal work on the front of the house, since so many neighbouring homes share the same original elevation that small differentiators (paint colour, door hardware, exterior lighting) actually stand out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the City's 2024 detached average of $311,305 reflect what my Pacific Heights home is worth?
As a starting reference, largely yes for a mid-condition detached home. Sixty-two single-family closings in Pacific Heights averaged $311,305 in 2024, which places the neighbourhood in the entry band of the citywide detached market. A current 2026 valuation on your specific home starts from that number and layers on street-level comparables, updates, garage, basement development, and citywide MLS® benchmark movement since the sample year. Updated homes commonly clear the average; original or heavily deferred-maintenance homes land below.
Why does the City PDF show two identical semi-detached rows in Pacific Heights?
That is a City PDF quirk rather than two separate samples. The profile publishes 4 closings at $252,375 under Semi-detached and 4 closings at $252,375 under Semi-detached-two-titles, which is almost certainly the same data reported twice rather than 8 unique sales. I treat it as a single 4-unit attached sample when I price a Pacific Heights semi-detached, since assuming 8 comparables would overstate the depth of the attached market here.
Why are there no condo or townhouse closings in Pacific Heights in 2024?
Because the multi-unit footprint is very small. Only 74 of Pacific Heights' 1,421 dwellings sit in multi-unit buildings, which is five per cent of the neighbourhood, and there was no condo townhouse or apartment activity in the 2024 City sample. That does not mean any single unit is unsellable, it means pricing has to lean on same-building comparables and active listings in adjacent west-side apartment complexes rather than a Pacific Heights average that has no denominator behind it.
How do I stand out when most Pacific Heights homes were built in the same era?
Interior detail work does most of that job. Eighty-five per cent of Pacific Heights homes were built between 1961 and 1980, so exterior similarity across the neighbourhood is common. Updated finishes, a finished basement, consistent staging, and photography that highlights what your home has that a near-identical bungalow down the block does not are what separate one listing from the next.
Is selling a semi-detached home in Pacific Heights different from selling a detached?
Yes. The effective 4-closing semi-detached sample in 2024 averaged $252,375, well below the detached average, and title structure alone can move the number materially. Buyers look at party-wall arrangements, whether the two halves share a lot or sit on separate titles, and how the condo or bareland structure is set up. Semi-detached buyers also weight yard and parking differently than a detached buyer would.
Who is actually buying detached homes in Pacific Heights right now?
A mix of first-time family buyers stepping up from an apartment or townhouse, Saskatoon working households choosing an entry-price west-side location over a further-out suburb, and small-scale investors looking at 1970s bungalows with basement-suite potential. Family buyers weight fenced yards, garages, and proximity to Pacific Heights schools heavily, and marketing that speaks to a family unit tends to earn stronger offers on the larger detached product here.
Should I sell my Pacific Heights home before buying my next one, or the other way around?
There is no single right answer. Saskatoon has sat on tight inventory through much of 2025 and 2026, so buying first can mean carrying two properties briefly if the sale takes longer than expected, and selling first can compress the window to find the next home. For many Pacific Heights owners the next move is an upsize into a larger west-side or suburban home funded by an entry-tier sale, which affects how tight the sequencing needs to be. We walk through the specific scenario at the evaluation.
Does the higher ownership share in Pacific Heights affect a resale?
It tends to help. Eighty per cent of Pacific Heights dwellings were owner-occupied at the last Census, which is high for a west-side neighbourhood and points to long-tenure households on the detached blocks. That translates into stable comparables and buyers who often already know the neighbourhood before they book a showing, both of which support cleaner pricing conversations.
Does listing in spring or summer make a real difference in Pacific Heights?
It shifts the buyer mix more than it makes or breaks a sale. Spring and early summer bring more family buyers moving in time for the school year; fall and winter tend to bring more serious end-user buyers moving for a specific reason. A prepared listing sells in every season, and the right month depends on your own timeline as much as the calendar.
Do I need to renovate my Pacific Heights home before selling?
Rarely a full renovation. At the neighbourhood's entry-price detached point of $311,305 in 2024, a gut reno will not fully return on resale, and buyers here are cost-conscious. Focused refreshes on paint, flooring, fixtures, and mechanical documentation earn condition points without pushing the price above what the pool can support. Basement freshening, and where legally permitted a secondary-suite conversion, is one of the clearer places where the return can show up on a rental-play resale.
Can I get a value on my Pacific Heights home without committing to list it?
Yes. The evaluation is free, done in person on your property, and comes with no obligation to list. Many Pacific Heights owners use it to plan an upsize into a larger west-side or suburban home, to test a portal estimate that has miscategorised a semi-detached as a detached, or to check whether the equity picture supports a next move before opening a lender conversation.
What's my Pacific Heights home worth in 2026?
There is no reliable published 2026 average specific to Pacific Heights. The 2024 detached average of $311,305 is the honest starting point for a detached home; the effective 4-closing semi-detached sample at $252,375 is a thin anchor for attached product, and the neighbourhood produced no condo or townhouse closings in the 2024 City record. Your actual number depends on format, condition, updates, garage, basement, and how the home compares to what has closed on adjacent west-side streets in the past few months. That work happens at the in-person evaluation.
