If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs on Beaumont Street East lately, here is what is actually happening. The market is taking a breather on the house side, but condos are telling a completely different story. We are not in a freefall - we are in a split market, and knowing which side you are on matters a lot right now.
For those of us in houses on Beaumont Street East, the numbers are honest. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $261,685, down 5.70% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $277,492, and that number is sliding - it is currently tracking below the 3-month moving average of $282,562. Values have dipped 0.48% recently.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses here rank 70 out of 92 comparable neighbourhoods in St. John's for growth. That puts us in below-average territory. Not a crisis, but not something to ignore either.
The silver lining? If you own a house here and are thinking about renting it out, the numbers are actually solid. Estimated rent comes in at $1,492 per month with a rental yield of 6.03%. That is a strong return by any measure. Airbnb potential adds roughly $74 per month on top of that, with Beaumont Street East ranking 87th in St. John's for short-term rental demand.
Here is where it gets interesting. Condo owners on Beaumont Street East are sitting on a very different situation. The average HonestDoor Price for condos is $553,648 - up 4.68% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $528,905, and unlike houses, that number is climbing above the 3-month moving average of $490,086. That is momentum.
Rental income potential for condos is strong too, with estimated rent at $2,619 per month. Airbnb ranks 25th in St. John's for condos here - that is a top-tier short-term rental position. The nightly estimate comes in at $130.
The one caveat worth knowing: the rental yield on condos is 3.73%, which is moderate. And on the growth leaderboard, condos rank 81 out of 92 in St. John's. So while values are up, the growth trajectory is not leading the pack. The value is there - the momentum just needs watching.
For house owners, Ricketts Road is the cheaper option nearby at $255,796. O'Neil Avenue sits slightly above us at $278,828, and Upper Springdale Street comes in at $302,172. We are right in the middle of the pack - not the cheapest address, not the priciest.
For condo owners, the comparison is more dramatic. Ricketts Road condos average $368,179 and Upper Springdale Street comes in at $229,439 - both well below what we are seeing on Beaumont Street East. O'Neil Avenue condos at $677,214 are the outlier above us. That tells us our condo values are holding a strong position in this cluster of neighbourhoods.
Here is the thing about your city tax assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. It does not know that house values on Beaumont Street East have shifted 5.70% recently. It does not know that condo values have moved up 4.68%. By the time that assessment lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved on.
The HonestDoor Price is a real-world check updated in real time. If you are a house owner, your assessment might actually be overstating your current value - which could mean you are paying more in property tax than you should. If you are a condo owner, your assessment might be understating what your unit is actually worth today. Either way, you deserve the accurate number, not the government's best guess from last year.
Checking your HonestDoor Price right now is not just curiosity - it is how you walk into any conversation with a buyer, a bank, or a tax office with the real number in your hand.
For house sellers - do not wait and hope the market bounces back on its own. Values are down 5.70% and the 3-month trend is still sliding. That does not mean panic-sell, but it does mean that listing sooner rather than later gives you more control over your price. Buyers are still out there. A well-priced house on Beaumont Street East, with a rental yield story of 6.03% to back it up, is a genuinely attractive pitch to investors and owner-occupiers alike.
For condo sellers - your timing window looks better. Values are up 4.68% and the predicted value is climbing above the recent moving average. Summer foot traffic plus a top-25 Airbnb ranking in St. John's gives you a real story to tell. The growth rank of 81 out of 92 is worth keeping an eye on, but right now the value is on your side.
Bottom line - whether you own a house or a condo on Beaumont Street East, the smartest move you can make this summer is to know your actual number before anyone else does. That is exactly what your HonestDoor Price is for.
