If you own on Broad Street, the market is sending two very different signals depending on what you own. Houses and condos are moving in opposite directions, and knowing which camp you're in could change how you think about your next move.
Let's be straight with you. House values on Broad Street are down. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $369,274, which is a 2.89% dip from the previous period. The predicted market value is $383,247, and that number is nudging up slightly from the 3-month moving average of $382,354 - so the floor may be close.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, Broad Street houses rank 17 out of 33 in Saint John for growth. That puts us in below-average territory right now. Not a crisis, but not a bragging point either.
The silver lining? If you're a landlord or thinking about becoming one, the rental story is solid. Estimated rent comes in at $1,847 per month with a rental yield of 5.88%. That's a strong return. For context, a lot of investors would be happy with anything above 5%.
For comparison, our neighbours are priced higher. Germain Street averages $439,539, Orange Street hits $461,609, and Uptown is in a different league at $678,728. Broad Street is the more accessible entry point into this part of the city - and that matters to buyers watching their budget.
Condo owners on Broad Street, pay attention. The average HonestDoor Price for condos here is $710,700 - up 7.05% from the previous period. That's real money moving in the right direction.
The short-term picture is a bit more cautious. The predicted value has pulled back to $663,900, which is below the 3-month moving average of $719,167. Values have shifted -7.50% recently, so there's some choppiness in the short run. Condo growth ranks 5 out of 7 in Saint John - below average for this property type.
But here's what stands out: the rental numbers are impressive. Estimated rent is $3,190 per month. And if you're comparing us to nearby Uptown condos, our predicted value of $663,900 is actually slightly ahead of Uptown's $657,550. We're holding our own against one of the most recognized addresses in the city.
Here's the thing about your city assessment: it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what happened on your street last month. It doesn't factor in what a buyer would actually pay today.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It pulls in actual transaction data, current market shifts, and what comparable properties are doing right now. For Broad Street house owners, that means seeing the 2.89% dip reflected immediately - not 18 months from now when the city catches up. For condo owners, it means capturing that 7.05% gain before it disappears from the conversation.
If you're making any financial decision tied to your home - refinancing, selling, even just knowing your net worth - use your HonestDoor Price. Your tax assessment is a starting point. Your HonestDoor Price is the real-world check.
For house sellers: the market is softer, but it's not broken. With only 4 transactions recorded in 2026, inventory is tight. Fewer sales can mean less competition when you list. Price it right from day one - buyers are paying attention and they have access to the same data you do.
For condo sellers: the longer-term trend is working in your favour with that 7.05% gain. The short-term dip to $663,900 is worth watching. If you can wait a few months for the market to settle, you may be in a stronger position. If you need to move now, you're still sitting above Uptown comps - that's a real selling point.
Either way, the smartest thing you can do before listing is check your HonestDoor Price today. Not next quarter. Today. The market is moving, and you want to be ahead of it - not catching up to it.
