If you own a home on Parliament Street and the last number you checked was your city tax assessment, you are probably sitting on a very outdated picture of what your place is actually worth. Here is what is really going on right now.
We are seeing a split market on Parliament Street right now, and which side you are on matters a lot for your next move.
The average HonestDoor Price for a house here sits at $456,247 - up 2.38% from the previous period. That is a steady, quiet climb. Not a gold rush, but not a retreat either. The short-term predicted value comes in at $445,656, which is slightly below the 3-month moving average of $455,729. In plain language, the market is taking a breather after a run-up. Do not panic - this is normal.
That growth rank puts us right in the middle of the pack for houses. Not leading the charge, but holding our own. For context, our predicted house value of $445,656 is comfortably ahead of nearby Winnipeg Street at $360,392 - so we are not the cheapest option in the area, and buyers know it.
The rental yield of 5.78% is the number landlords should be circling. That is a genuinely strong return, and with average rent estimated at $2,240 per month, Parliament Street houses are pulling real income for investors.
This is where things get interesting for us. Condo values on Parliament Street are moving fast. The average HonestDoor Price hit $233,562 - up 14.01% from the previous period. The predicted value of $204,862 is already climbing above the 3-month moving average of $199,596, and the recent change in property values clocks in at a striking 41.13%.
That growth rank is the headline. Rank 11 out of 94 puts Parliament Street condos firmly in the top performers category across all of St. John's. If you own a condo here, you are in a strong position right now. One thing worth noting - nearby Winnipeg Street, Mount Cashel Road, and Stirling Crescent all show higher average condo prices, which tells us Parliament Street condos still have room to close that gap.
Here is the honest truth about city 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 from actual sales data and current market signals. It is the difference between checking last year's weather forecast and stepping outside right now.
For Parliament Street condo owners, that gap could be significant. A 14.01% increase in the HonestDoor Price means your city assessment is almost certainly lagging behind what a buyer would actually pay you today. For house owners, even a 2.38% move on a $456,247 property is roughly $10,000 in value that your old assessment is not capturing.
Check your HonestDoor Price now. Do not wait for the city to catch up.
For house owners, the honest answer is - it depends on your timeline. Values are up year-over-year, but the short-term trend is softening slightly. If you need to sell this summer, you are not in a bad spot. Prices are still healthy and rental demand is strong enough that buyers see real value here. Just price it right from day one. Overpricing a softening market is the fastest way to sit on a listing.
For condo owners, the case for selling this summer is stronger. You are sitting in the top 12% of all St. John's neighbourhoods for condo growth. Buyer interest follows momentum, and right now Parliament Street condos have it. If you have been on the fence, this is the window to have a real conversation about what your unit is worth today - not what the city told you six months ago.
Either way, your first step is the same - pull your HonestDoor Price, compare it to your assessment, and see exactly how much the market has moved in your favour. That number is your starting point for every decision that follows.
