If you live on Bonavista Street West, the honest answer is: it depends on what you own. Houses and condos are telling two very different stories right now, and knowing which one applies to you could change how you think about your next move.
Let's be straight with each other. House values on our street are dipping. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $363,557, down 1.23% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average is $375,577, and the current predicted value of $368,070 is running below that. That gap tells us the market is cooling, not crashing, but cooling.
That growth rank of 71 out of 91 puts us in the lower tier of St. John's neighbourhoods right now. Neighbours like Bellevue Crescent ($394,281), Birmingham Street ($396,141), and Park Avenue East ($386,596) are all coming in higher on house prices. We are not at the top of the leaderboard - but here is the flip side: if you are a landlord or thinking about renting, a 5.88% rental yield is genuinely solid. Your house earns its keep even when appreciation slows down.
Condo owners on Bonavista Street West, pay attention. Your numbers are moving in the right direction. The average HonestDoor Price is $458,975, up 0.35%, and the predicted market value of $457,375 is climbing above the 3-month moving average of $440,381. That upward momentum matters.
A 6.36% recent value change is real momentum. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, condos rank 56 out of 92 - middle of the pack, but trending upward. Nearby Birmingham Street condos are predicted at $501,664 and Bellevue Crescent at $489,800, so there is still a gap to close. But the direction is right.
Here is the thing about your city assessment: it is a snapshot from the past. It does not know what happened to values last month, last quarter, or even last year in real time. The HonestDoor Price is updated continuously using actual market signals - sales data, listing activity, neighbourhood trends. It is the real-world check against a number the city set months or years ago.
Right now, with house values on a slight dip and condo values climbing, the gap between your old assessment and your actual market position could be significant - in either direction. If your assessment is too high, you might be overpaying on property taxes. If it is too low, you might be leaving money on the table when you sell. Either way, you deserve the current number, not a stale one.
If you own a house on Bonavista Street West and you are thinking about listing this summer, the data says move sooner rather than later. Values are sliding - not dramatically, but the trend is not your friend if you wait. A 3-month moving average of $375,577 dropping toward a predicted $368,070 means time is costing you money.
If you own a condo, you are in a better spot. The momentum is positive and the rental demand is real at $2,323 per month. You have a bit more flexibility on timing, but do not get complacent - nearby streets are priced higher and buyers have options.
For anyone on the fence, the smartest first step is checking your HonestDoor Price today. Not your assessment. Not what your neighbour thinks their place is worth. The live number - because that is what buyers are actually working with when they walk through your door.
