If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs on Road De Luxe lately, here's what's actually happening. The market isn't crashing. It's not on fire either. It's doing what a smart, established neighbourhood does - holding its ground while the rest of St. John's figures itself out.
We've got two very different stories playing out here depending on what you own, so let's break it down.
Our houses are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $496,789. Yes, that's nudged down 0.44% from last period - but before anyone panics, that's not a slide. That's a breath. The predicted market value is actually sitting at $498,969, which tells us the fundamentals are solid.
Here's the number that matters most for house owners: our growth rate ranks 9 out of 92 comparable neighbourhoods in St. John's. That puts us in the top 10%. That's not a participation trophy - that's a leaderboard position worth paying attention to.
For context, our closest neighbours are trailing us. Thomas Street houses average $387,951. Colville Street sits at $349,492. Pasadena Crescent is at $258,332. Road De Luxe isn't just holding its own - we're leading the pack on price.
The condo picture is more interesting. The average HonestDoor Price is $251,121, which is down 2.29% from last period. That sounds rough on paper. But look at the predicted value - $257,008 - and compare it to the 3-month moving average of $228,422. That's a meaningful jump upward. The trend is turning.
Condos here rank 36 out of 94 neighbourhoods for growth. Above average in St. John's. Not the top of the leaderboard, but solidly in the better half - and climbing.
Nearby condos in Thomas Street average $215,200 and Colville Street sits at $212,644. Our condos are priced higher - and the predicted value suggests that gap is justified.
Here's the thing most Road De Luxe homeowners don't realize. Your city tax assessment is a snapshot from the past. It gets updated on a schedule, not in real time. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved.
The HonestDoor Price is a live, real-world check on what your property is actually worth today - not what a government formula decided it was worth 12 or 18 months ago. With houses here predicted at $498,969 and condos trending upward toward $257,008, there's a real chance your assessment is underselling you. Or in some cases, it might be telling you something different entirely.
Either way, you deserve the accurate number - not the convenient one. Check your HonestDoor Price now, not at tax time.
If you own a house on Road De Luxe and you've been on the fence about listing this summer, the data gives you a reasonable case to move. A top-10 growth ranking in St. John's is a real selling point. Buyers looking at Thomas Street or Colville Street are going to see Road De Luxe as the better address - and the numbers back that up.
The 0.44% dip in house prices is minor. The 3-month moving average of $499,807 shows this isn't a freefall - it's a slight correction in an otherwise strong position. Summer inventory tends to be competitive. Getting your listing in front of buyers before the market gets crowded is a smarter play than waiting to see what fall brings.
For condo owners, the story is about momentum. The predicted value is running well ahead of the recent moving average. If that trajectory holds, waiting a few months could work in your favour. But if you need to sell now, you're not in a bad spot - you're still priced above your nearest neighbours.
Bottom line: Road De Luxe is not a neighbourhood that needs to apologize for its prices. Know your number, price it right, and move with confidence.
