Hillcrest is a community in southwest Airdrie, Alberta, on higher ground than most of the city, with mountain views from some of its streets. This guide is written by Tara Molina Real Estate Group, an Airdrie and Calgary real estate team led by Tara Molina, REALTOR® CCS®, brokered by Royal LePage Benchmark, and it is built from the Hillcrest homes our team has sold.

Why People Choose It

Why Do People Choose Hillcrest In Airdrie?

Hillcrest sits in southwest Airdrie on higher ground than most of the city, which is the reason a lot of people choose it. From the right streets you get mountain views, and from most of it a sense of openness the flatter communities cannot offer at any price.

The Housing Mix

A genuine range, which is unusual in one community. The homes we have sold here run from 1,190 square feet to 2,300: smaller attached product at one end, full family homes at the other.

The Views

Not every street has them, and that difference is priced in. If a mountain view is the reason you are buying here, be specific about which side of which street before you fall for a floor plan.

Green Space & Pathways

Pathways and green space run through the community and connect into the wider Airdrie network. The elevation makes for a better walk than most of the city.

The Commute

Southwest Airdrie, with straightforward access to 8th Street and the QEII. Roughly 20 minutes into Calgary on a clear run, CrossIron Mills and the airport on the way south.

Worth Knowing

Nineteen Days Or Two Hundred And Eighty: Which Is Hillcrest?

Hillcrest has one of our quickest medians anywhere: nineteen days across the sales that went through the MLS®. Here is the other number.

In 2020, 197 Hillcrest Drive took two hundred and eighty days. That is one of the longest listings in our entire record, out of more than five hundred homes.

Hillcrest has one of our quickest medians anywhere: nineteen days across the sales that went through the MLS®. Some of those went in under two weeks. If we wanted to sell you on this community, that is the only number we would print.

Here is the other one. In 2020, 197 Hillcrest Drive took two hundred and eighty days. That is one of the longest listings in our entire record, out of more than five hundred homes.

We publish both because the median alone would mislead you. A fast median means most homes here move quickly. It does not mean yours cannot be the one that sits, and a community median quoted without the range is only half a picture.

For a while we explained that range by the spread of housing here, and our own file does not support it. The five day sale was 181 Hillcrest Drive SW at 1,912 square feet. The two hundred and eighty day one was 197 Hillcrest Drive at 1,932 square feet. Same street, twenty square feet apart. The largest home we have sold here, at 2,300 square feet, went in nineteen days. The smallest, at 1,190, took twenty three.

What actually separated those two houses on Hillcrest Drive was ten months. 197 sold in August 2020. 181 sold in June 2021. Across our whole Airdrie record the median went from forty days in 2020 to fifteen in 2022, and most of our Hillcrest sales landed in 2021 and 2022, none of them taking longer than thirty six days.

So nineteen days is not a fact about Hillcrest. It is four different markets averaged together.

Which makes the useful question about any comparable a different one than the one people ask. Not what it sold for, and not how fast. Which year it sold in. Our most recent Hillcrest sale is 2025, so none of the numbers on this page describe the community today. Ask us what it looks like now and we will tell you what we actually know.

The Numbers

How Long Do Homes Take To Sell In Hillcrest?

Our own closed Hillcrest sales, current as of 2026. The fast median and the slow outlier sit in the same set of homes.

FASTESTMEDIANLONGEST5 days19 days280

Our own closed sales in Hillcrest, counted as days on market on the MLS® listing and grouped by the year the sale closed. The 19 day median and the 280 day slowest sit in the same set of homes, which is exactly why a median on its own tells you so little here. We publish a community median only where we have closed ten or more homes. Figures current as of 2026. Individual sale prices are not published. See how this compares across Airdrie.

Home Values In Hillcrest

What Is My Hillcrest Home Worth?

A Hillcrest home is worth what a buyer will pay for it this month, not what a neighbour got in a different year. Tara Molina Real Estate Group, brokered by Royal LePage Benchmark, prepares a comparative market analysis (CMA) for any Hillcrest address in Airdrie, at no cost and with no obligation to sell.

Two things move the number in Hillcrest. The first is the view: the community sits on higher ground, some streets look west to the mountains and some do not, and that difference is priced in. The second is the date on the comparable. In our own record the same street produced a five day sale and a two hundred and eighty day sale, twenty square feet and ten months apart, so a sale from a different market year tells you very little about today.

Afterward, the only thing you will hear from us is what is happening in the real estate market in your own community. No pressure, no sales pitch, no expectation. Thinking of selling in the next year or two? Book a free Pre Sale Walkthrough and we will tell you which updates, selections and colours make sense with resale value in mind, before you spend the money.

Thinking Of Selling

Ask for the CMA before you renovate or pick a date. It tells you what the home would sell for as it sits, in this market and not the one your neighbour sold in.

Thinking Of Buying

A list price is the seller’s opinion. If a mountain view is part of the asking price, be specific about what you can see and from where, and ask us how the home compares before you write an offer.

Just Curious

No move planned? Ask anyway. A current number is useful for planning or plain peace of mind, and it commits you to nothing.

CMA Or Appraisal?

For a decision about selling or offering, a CMA from a REALTOR® is the tool. For a mortgage, a legal matter or an estate, you will usually be asked for a certified appraisal. Tell us why you need the number and we will say which fits.

How We Arrive At The Number

1

Comparable sales

Recent Hillcrest sales of homes like yours, with the year of each sale weighed as carefully as the price.

2

Active listings

What is for sale against you right now, because that is the choice a buyer is actually making.

3

Listings that did not sell

Homes that were listed and came off unsold, which show where buyers stopped.

4

The home itself

Condition, layout, upgrades and the view from the lot, seen in person, because no database knows what you can see from your deck.

Good To Know

Hillcrest Questions, Answered.

How do I find out what my home in Hillcrest is worth?

Ask a REALTOR® who has sold in the community for a comparative market analysis. Tara Molina Real Estate Group, brokered by Royal LePage Benchmark, prepares one for any Hillcrest address, using recent comparable sales, the active listings you would compete with, and the listings that did not sell.

Does a home evaluation in Hillcrest cost anything, and do I have to sell?

No, and no. A Hillcrest home evaluation from our team is at no cost and carries no obligation to list. Many owners ask simply to know where they stand.

How accurate are online home value estimates for Hillcrest?

They are a starting point. An automated estimate works from public data and averages, so it cannot see condition, upgrades or whether a home has a mountain view, and it averages sales from very different market years. Treat it as a rough range, then have the number checked against the homes yours would compete with today.

Is my City of Airdrie property assessment the same as market value?

No. Alberta property assessments estimate value as of July 1 of the year before the tax year, so the figure on your notice is already dated when it arrives, and it comes from mass appraisal without anyone walking through your home. It is for calculating property tax. It is not a selling price.

What is the difference between a CMA and an appraisal?

A comparative market analysis is a REALTOR®’s opinion of what a home would sell for, used to set a list price or judge an offer. An appraisal is a formal valuation by a designated appraiser, usually required by lenders, courts and estates, and it comes with a fee. For a decision about selling or offering in Hillcrest, a CMA is the tool. If a bank or lawyer has asked for a value, you likely need an appraisal.

Do mountain views add value to a Hillcrest home?

Yes, and not every street has them. Hillcrest sits on higher ground than most of Airdrie, and the difference between a street with a view and one without is priced in. A valuation has to compare your home with others on the same side of that line.

Can you tell me what a home on my street in Hillcrest sold for?

We do not publish individual sale prices on this site. As part of a valuation we walk you through the recent sales on your street and around it, which year each one sold in, and what that means for your home.

Should I renovate before selling my Hillcrest home?

Get the valuation first. Some work earns its cost back with Hillcrest buyers and some does not, and the answer depends on what your home is competing with right now. We will tell you what to do, what to leave, and what the home would sell for as it sits.

I am buying in Hillcrest. How do I know if a home is priced fairly?

Compare it to recent Hillcrest sales of similar homes, check which year each one sold in, and look at what else is for sale that week. If the price includes a view, make sure the view is really there. We run that comparison for buyers before an offer is written.

Where is Hillcrest in Airdrie?

Southwest Airdrie, on higher ground than most of the city, close to the 8th Street corridor. Its streets carry the Hillcrest name, Drive, Road, Square, Gardens, Manor, Heights, Close, Green and Avenue, and the stone entrance tower is the landmark most people picture.

How long do homes take to sell in Hillcrest?

Our median across the Hillcrest sales that went through the MLS® is nineteen days, one of our quickest anywhere, with some going in under a fortnight. But the full range runs from five days to two hundred and eighty, and that longest one is among the longest listings in our entire record. What separates the two ends is mostly the year: the slowest sales here are from 2020, and most sold in 2021 and 2022 at a fifteen day median. A fast median does not promise a fast sale, and a median averaged across six years is not a forecast.

Does Hillcrest have mountain views?

From some streets, yes. The elevation is the reason the community sits where it does. Not every home has them though, and the difference is priced in. If a view is why you are buying, be specific about which side of which street before you commit to a floor plan.

What kinds of homes are in Hillcrest?

A wider range than most Airdrie communities. The ones we have sold ran from 1,190 square feet to 2,300: smaller attached homes at one end and full family homes at the other. Size does not predict how fast one sells here though: the largest home we have sold in Hillcrest went in nineteen days and the smallest took twenty three.

How long is the commute from Hillcrest to Calgary?

Roughly 20 minutes down the QEII on a clear run, with peak hour adding to it. CrossIron Mills and the Calgary airport are both on the way south.

Can I call about any Hillcrest listing?

Yes. Call or text 403.809.4639 about any home for sale in Hillcrest. We’ll show it to you, tell you what we know about it, and show you anything else worth seeing. If you decide to write an offer on one of our own listings, a teammate writes it, so you and the seller each have an agent working for you alone. On every other home, we write the offer ourselves.

What is a Pre Sale Walkthrough?

It is a free walkthrough for Hillcrest owners who may sell in the next year or two. We walk through your home and tell you which updates, selections and colours make sense with resale value in mind, so you can choose before you spend the money. Book one here.

What happens after my free Hillcrest home evaluation?

You decide. The only follow up from us is information about what is happening in the real estate market in your own community. There is no pressure, no sales pitch and no expectation.
