If you live on Craigmillar Avenue, you already know it holds its own against the surrounding blocks. Shaw Street, Sudbury Street, and James Lane are all coming in cheaper on the HonestDoor Price scale - so your address carries a real premium in this pocket of St. John's. Here is how houses and condos are each telling a different story right now.
The honest picture for houses on Craigmillar Avenue is a market that is cooling off a little. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $367,129, down 0.49% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average is $377,100, and the predicted value is $368,926 - so prices are sliding back toward that predicted number after a softer stretch. The recent change in property values is -3.65%.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses here rank 80 out of 91 for growth in St. John's. That puts us near the bottom of the pack right now. That is the straight talk. It does not mean your home is not worth good money - it just means this is not a moment where house prices here are racing ahead of the city.
The silver lining? If you are a landlord or thinking about becoming one, the rental numbers are genuinely strong.
Condos on Craigmillar Avenue are actually moving in the opposite direction. The predicted market value is $260,863, which is up from the 3-month moving average of $247,550. Recent value change is +7.21%. That is real upward momentum. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, condos here rank 41 out of 92 - above average for St. John's. That is a much healthier position than the house segment right now.
The average HonestDoor Price for condos is $252,873, down 3.06% from the previous period - but the predicted value climbing above the moving average suggests the floor may already be in and prices are pushing back up. Worth watching closely.
Here is the thing about government assessments - they are snapshots from the past. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling in actual sales data and current market signals. Right now, with house values on Craigmillar Avenue dipping and condo values climbing, the gap between what the city thinks your home is worth and what a buyer would actually pay can be significant in either direction.
If your tax assessment is based on last year's higher numbers, you could be overpaying on property taxes. If it is lagging behind the condo rebound, you might be underselling yourself. Either way, checking your HonestDoor Price today gives you the real-world number - not a government estimate that is already out of date.
For house sellers, timing matters right now. Prices have pulled back and the growth rank is near the bottom of the St. John's leaderboard. That does not mean you should panic - Craigmillar Avenue still commands more than Shaw Street, Sudbury Street, and James Lane. But if you were hoping to ride a wave of appreciation this summer, that wave is not here yet for houses. Pricing sharp and marketing well is going to matter more than it did a year ago.
For condo sellers, the picture is more encouraging. Values are trending up, the predicted price is ahead of the 3-month average, and the growth rank puts us in the top half of the city. If you have been sitting on the fence, this summer could be a reasonable window to move.
Either way, the first step is the same - pull your HonestDoor Price, see where you actually stand today, and make a decision based on real numbers instead of guesswork.
