If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs in Shannons Corners, here is the honest picture. We are sitting in a neighbourhood that is punching well above its weight compared to the rest of Kingston - and most people have not noticed yet.
Houses and condos are telling two different stories right now, so let us break them down separately.
Yes, the HonestDoor Price dipped 2.32% in the short term. But zoom out and the picture flips. Our houses rank 2nd on the Kingston neighbourhood leaderboard for growth - out of 45 neighbourhoods tracked. That short-term blip is the market taking a breather, not falling apart. The predicted value of $779,332 is already sitting above the 3-month average, which tells us the floor is holding and the direction is up.
For landlords and investors, a 5.11% rental yield is genuinely solid. At $3,564 per month in estimated rent, a house here is not just a home - it is a performing asset.
The condo numbers here are hard to ignore. A 12.45% increase in the HonestDoor Price is not a rounding error - that is real movement. The predicted value of $780,650 is sitting dramatically above the 3-month moving average of $535,543, which signals that condo demand in Shannons Corners has shifted fast. Landing 5th on the Kingston leaderboard out of 44 neighbourhoods tracked puts us firmly in the top tier of the city for condo growth.
The rental yield of 3.27% is moderate compared to houses, but an Airbnb rank of 6th in all of Kingston means short-term rental income is a real conversation worth having if you own a condo here.
Here is the thing most homeowners in Shannons Corners do not realize. Your city tax assessment is a snapshot from the past. It does not know about the 12.45% condo surge. It does not know our houses rank 2nd in Kingston for growth. It is working with old data while the market has already moved.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It reflects what buyers are actually paying right now - not what an assessor estimated months or years ago. If you are making any financial decision about your home - refinancing, selling, or just figuring out your net worth - the HonestDoor Price is the number you should be looking at first. Think of it as the real-world check against a static government number that has not caught up to your street yet.
And when you compare us to nearby neighbourhoods, the gap is clear. Alcan sits at $614,002 for houses. Rideau Heights is at $446,363. Strathcona Park comes in at $554,714. Shannons Corners at $761,236 is not just ahead - it is in a different conversation entirely.
If you are thinking about listing this summer, here is the straight talk. You are in one of the top two growth neighbourhoods in all of Kingston for houses. Condo values have jumped over 12% recently. Predicted values are climbing past their own moving averages. That is not a market you run away from as a seller - that is a market you lean into.
The short-term dip on house prices is worth watching, but a 2nd-place growth ranking out of 45 neighbourhoods tells you the underlying demand is real. Buyers looking at Kingston are going to find Shannons Corners whether they mean to or not - because the numbers keep pointing here.
The move right now is simple. Check your HonestDoor Price today. Not your assessment. Not what your neighbour thinks their place is worth. Your actual, current, real-world number. Then decide. You might be sitting on more than you think.
