If you live on Southside Road West, the story depends a lot on what type of property you own. We are not all in the same boat here - and that gap is worth paying attention to.
Let's be straight with you. Houses in Southside Road West are showing a predicted market value of $349,311, and that number is drifting down slightly from the 3-month moving average of $357,573. Recent price change sits at -1.93%. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses rank 56 out of 91 comparable areas in St. John's - that puts us in below-average territory for growth right now.
But here is the part that matters for your wallet. The average HonestDoor Price for houses is $361,622, up 3.75% from the previous period. That is the real-world number doing the heavy lifting. And if you are a landlord or thinking about becoming one, a rental yield of 5.89% is genuinely strong. That is not a number you ignore.
Condos on Southside Road West are in a completely different league. The average HonestDoor Price is $1,076,648 - up 5.54% from the previous period. The predicted market value sits at $1,020,124, and that number is actually climbing above the 3-month moving average of $1,007,359. Recent price change is up 4.27%. That is momentum.
The Airbnb rank for condos here is 5 out of all St. John's neighbourhoods. Top five. If you own a condo on this street and you are not at least thinking about short-term rental income, you are leaving money on the table. At $214 per night, this address has real pull for visitors.
One honest note - the rental yield for condos comes in at 2.83%, which is moderate. The value is in appreciation and Airbnb potential here, not long-term rental income alone.
Here is the thing about your city tax assessment - it is a snapshot from the past. It does not know what happened to prices last quarter. It does not update when the market shifts. The HonestDoor Price is a live, real-time estimate that reflects what buyers are actually paying right now, not what an assessor calculated months or years ago.
For house owners on Southside Road West, your HonestDoor Price of $361,622 is running above the predicted market value of $349,311. That gap matters if you are making any financial decision based on your home's worth. For condo owners, the HonestDoor Price of $1,076,648 is the number a serious buyer conversation starts from - not whatever the city has on file.
Check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It takes two minutes and it is free.
For house sellers, the honest read is this: prices are slightly off their recent peak, and we sit in the middle of the pack on the St. John's growth leaderboard. That does not mean do not sell - it means price it right from day one. Buyers are paying attention and they have options. A house priced at $361,622 or close to it has a story to tell. A house priced above that without strong justification will sit.
For condo sellers, summer 2025 looks more interesting. Values are trending up, the 3-month average is climbing, and a top-5 Airbnb ranking means buyers who want income potential will be drawn to this address. If you have been sitting on the fence, the data is nudging you toward the gate.
Either way, compare what you have to the neighbours. James Lane houses are sitting at a predicted value of $280,057 - well below Southside Road West. Craigmillar Avenue houses come in at an HonestDoor Price of $367,129, which is close to us. Colville Street is a step below at $345,928. We are holding our own in this part of St. John's. That is worth something when you are negotiating.
