Property & development
Home values
How the City has assessed property in Cherry Gardens, 2022–2026.
Of Cherry Gardens's $25M in assessed-value growth since 2022, new construction drove most of it — about 64% ($16M): new buildings and major projects. The rest is the City reassessing existing property at higher values. How we tell construction from reassessment →
Typical home is the median change across the 140 homes assessed in both 2022 and 2026 — half rose by more, half by less. Growth rank places Cherry Gardens among the 133 Richmond neighborhoods with at least 50 such homes (1 = fastest growth).
