If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs on Ricketts Road lately, here is what is actually going on. We are looking at two very different stories depending on whether you own a house or a condo - and both are worth paying attention to.
Houses on Ricketts Road are the talk of the St. John's neighbourhood leaderboard right now. The predicted market value sits at $265,314, and that number is climbing fast - up from a 3-month moving average of $251,176. That is real momentum, not a blip.
That growth rank is the headline. Number 1 out of 91 neighbourhoods means houses here are outpacing almost every other pocket of St. John's right now. A 6.03% rental yield is also nothing to shrug at - that is the kind of number landlords in other parts of the city are genuinely jealous of.
Compare that to our neighbours: Brazil Street is averaging $290,527 and Beaumont Street East is at $291,365. We are priced a bit lower, but our growth rate is doing the heavy lifting.
Condo owners, here is the honest picture. Values have dipped 3.02% recently, and the average HonestDoor Price has pulled back 10.38% from the previous period to $315,223. That is a cooling-off moment, not a collapse. The predicted market value is $351,723, which is still ticking upward from the 3-month moving average of $345,549.
Even with the short-term dip, a growth rank of 4 out of 94 means our condos are still among the top performers in the entire city. That Airbnb rank of 33 is also a solid signal - short-term rental demand here is real.
Here is the thing most homeowners on Ricketts Road do not realize. Your city tax assessment is a snapshot frozen in time - often reflecting what your home was worth a year or two ago. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling in current sales data and market signals to give you a live read on what your property is actually worth today.
With houses here posting 11.75% growth recently and sitting at rank 1 in the city, there is a very good chance your tax assessment is underselling your home by a meaningful margin. Checking your HonestDoor Price right now is the fastest way to know if that gap exists - and how big it is.
If you own a house on Ricketts Road and have been sitting on the fence, this summer is worth a serious look. Being ranked number 1 for growth out of 91 St. John's neighbourhoods means buyer interest is real and values are moving in your favour. You are not chasing the market - you are ahead of it.
For condo owners, the short-term dip is worth watching but not panicking over. A rank of 4 out of 94 tells us the fundamentals are still strong. If your timeline is flexible, holding a little longer while the predicted value climbs back toward $351,723 could make sense. If you need to move this summer, you are still in a top-tier position compared to most of the city.
Either way, the first step is the same - pull your HonestDoor Price today and compare it to what the city has on file. That gap between the two numbers is your starting point for every conversation about selling.
