If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Thompson lately, here's what's actually happening. House values here are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $921,075 - and that number has climbed 1.60% from the previous period. The 3-month moving average tells an even bigger story: predicted market value is up to $906,550 from a moving average of $870,695. That's real, measurable momentum, not just wishful thinking.
We're not talking about a neighbourhood that's coasting. Thompson ranks 7 out of 64 comparable neighbourhoods in Niagara Falls for growth. That puts us in the top tier of the city's leaderboard - ahead of the vast majority of areas people are comparing us to.
Here's the thing about your city tax assessment: it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what happened to Thompson home values over the last few months. The HonestDoor Price is a real-world check updated in real time - and right now it's showing a predicted market value of $906,550 for houses in this neighbourhood, tracking upward against a 3-month moving average of $870,695.
That gap between what the government assessed your home at and what a buyer would actually pay today? That's money sitting on the table that most homeowners don't even know about. Check your HonestDoor Price before you assume your assessment tells the full story.
And for the investors in the room - the numbers here work. Estimated rent is $3,974 per month with a rental yield of 4.85%. That's a moderate but solid return. On the short-term side, Airbnb income potential sits around $197 per night, and Thompson ranks 16th in all of Niagara Falls for Airbnb performance. For a city that draws tourists year-round, that's a meaningful number.
Context matters. Look at what's happening in the neighbourhoods right next door to us.
Thompson homes are priced significantly higher than all three surrounding neighbourhoods - in some cases nearly double. That premium exists for a reason. Buyers are paying it, and the market data backs it up.
If you're thinking about listing this summer, the timing conversation is worth having seriously. Values are trending up, not sideways. Thompson is outperforming 57 out of 64 comparable neighbourhoods in Niagara Falls. Buyers looking in this city are comparing options, and Thompson keeps coming out ahead on price trajectory.
The practical takeaway: pull your HonestDoor Price today. If it's running ahead of your last tax assessment - and for most Thompson homeowners right now, it is - you have a clearer, more current picture of what your home is actually worth in this market. That's the number to anchor your summer selling conversation around, not a government figure that's already months or years old.
Thompson isn't taking a breather. It's one of the stronger-performing pockets in Niagara Falls right now. If selling is on your radar, this is not a moment to wait and see.
