Home values
How the City has assessed property in Laburnum Park, 2022–2026.
Essentially none of Laburnum Park's $58M in assessed-value growth since 2022 is new construction — it's the City reassessing existing property at higher values. How we tell construction from reassessment →
Typical home is the median change across the 314 homes assessed in both 2022 and 2026 — half rose by more, half by less. Growth rank places Laburnum Park among the 133 Richmond neighborhoods with at least 50 such homes (1 = fastest growth).
